Let’s build with Chain Abstraction!

Chain abstraction is a transformative concept in the Web3 industry that simplifies user interactions and development across multiple blockchains. By removing the complexities of managing multiple wallets and chains, it allows users to leverage their assets seamlessly across different networks. This enhances interoperability, improves user experience, and optimizes cost and scalability. Chain abstraction enables developers to build dApps without being limited by the liquidity or user base of a single blockchain, fostering a more integrated and efficient blockchain ecosystem.

Particle Network's goal is to solve the issue of Web3’s fragmentation of users and liquidity across chains.

Launched in 2022, Particle Network debuted as a Wallet Abstraction service provider, enabling users to create smart contract wallets linked to their Web2 social accounts, which can then be used natively within dApp-embedded interfaces.

After more than 17 Million wallet activations, 10 Million UserOperations, and over 900 dApp integrations later, Particle is taking the next step in its evolution with its L1 unifying all chains with account-level chain abstraction.

Chain Abstraction Educate

Get familiarised with the basics of chain abstraction through our Chain Abstraction Educate series starting 29th July! Join weekly workshops led by industry experts to build a solid foundation before diving into the Hackathon.

Bounties and Prizes

  • Onboard users into your chain-abstracted application through Universal Accounts using Particle Network's Universal SDK, automatically consolidating balances held on multiple chains and executing atomic cross-chain transactions to allow transactions to be funded using a unified balance.

    This bounty rewards the implementation of Universal Accounts as a flagship means of using your application, meaning all users that have an account within your dApp must be using a Universal Account; this is driven through Particle Network's SDK, simply plugging into libraries such as Web3.js, ethers, viem, and so on.

    In essence, this is a quick integration enabling account-level chain abstraction, agnostifying end-users to the chain(s) you decide to deploy your application on.

    Prizes:

    🏅Grand Prize - $10,000

    Bounty Specific:

    🥇1st Prize - $6,000

    🥈2nd Prize - $3,000

    🥉3rd Prize - $1,000

  • Create & deploy a custom data feed with SEDA's programmable oracle SDK focusing on feeds for noval chain abstraction or consumer use cases. Bonus points for implementing the data from your feed into a smart contract of app.

    Prizes:

    🥇 1st Prize - $5,000

    🥈 2nd Prize - $2,500

    🥉 3rd Prize - $1,000

    Ideas you can earn bonus points with:

    1. Consumer Apps - Web3 consumer apps are decentralized applications (dApps) designed for everyday users, focusing on ease of use, security, and seamless integration with blockchain technology. These apps typically allow users to interact with blockchain networks without needing a deep understanding of the underlying technology.

    2. DeFi Protocols with Mobile-Friendly Interfaces - These are decentralized finance (DeFi) protocols optimized for mobile devices, offering a seamless and user-friendly experience for activities such as lending, borrowing, staking, and trading crypto assets. The focus is on intuitive UI/UX design that caters to users accessing DeFi services via smartphones and tablets.

    3. On-Chain Gaming - On-chain games are fully decentralized games where game assets, logic, and progression are managed on the blockchain. Players have true ownership of their in-game assets (e.g., characters, weapons, items) in the form of NFTs, and the game’s economy operates on decentralized tokens.

    4. Apps that Combine Multiple Blockchain Network User Flows - These applications allow users to interact seamlessly across multiple blockchain networks within a single interface, abstracting away the complexities of blockchain interoperability. Users can perform actions such as asset transfers, swaps, or staking across different chains without leaving the app.

    5. Bots on Telegram/Discord/WhatsApp - Automated bots that operate within popular messaging platforms like Telegram, Discord, and WhatsApp, enabling users to execute trades, monitor markets, and manage portfolios directly from chat interfaces.

    6. DeFi Dashboards - Comprehensive dashboards that provide users with an overview of their decentralized finance activities, including staking, lending, borrowing, yield farming, and liquidity provision. These dashboards aggregate data from multiple DeFi protocols and present it in an easily digestible format.

    Judging Criteria:

    - Team must have built on Okto sdk in our sandbox environment and have a good functioning UI

    - Team must submit a fully open source repo which can be run as is (or with clear deployment instructions)

    - Teams must submit a clear code walk and ui/ux walk through video. - The videos must clearly show the ways in which okto is being used.

    - Team must deploy on vercel or provide apk file(in case of mobile app) that is usable. This means we should be able to experience an end to end flow of the app when judging.

    🏅 Prize Pool: $3,000
