At the Mercury Hackathon 2021, we believe that the sky’s the limit in the world of blockchain and non-fungible tokens (NFTs).
Join us on this 6-week online hackathon supported by Filecoin, IPFS & Flow that brings together some of the most talented creators around the world to innovate and redefine boundaries.Â
With the expertise from creatives and engineers around the world and the guidance from our talented ecosystem professionals – we’re thrilled to see what you can build.
‍Flow is a fast, decentralized, and developer-friendly blockchain, designed as the foundation for a new generation of games, apps, and the digital assets that power them. It is based on a unique, multi-role architecture, and designed to scale without sharding, allowing for massive improvements in speed and throughput while preserving a developer-friendly, ACID-compliant environment.
Decentology makes it easy for developers to build decentralized applications using DappStarter, its code generation platform. In addition, Decentology is launching Hyperverse, a platform that enables developers to build sophisticated web3 apps with monetization and audit-based insurance built in.
