A look at the winning projects of the Base Onchain Summer Hackathon

Compiled written by Karen, Foresight News

At the beginning of last month, Bases hackathon Onchain Summer Buildathon, which is dedicated to bringing the world to the chain, came to an end. Today, Base disclosed that the hackathon attracted more than 7,500 builders to participate actively, and they jointly submitted more than 1,250 innovative projects. In the end, 82 projects stood out after fierce competition.

Base said that this event became the largest on-chain hackathon in history, and as a result, the prize pool was expanded from 200 ETH to 250 ETH to recognize and reward more developers who built outstanding products on Base.

This hackathon will focus on eight tracks including payment, business, creators, games, discovery, social, transactions, impact on the real world and community participation. The entries will be judged based on multiple dimensions including technology, creativity, practicality, UI/UX, and future growth potential.

After exploring these award-winning projects, it is not difficult to find that the focus of this hackathon is highly focused on payment, Web3 transformation of business models, games, and innovative practglaces closely connected with the real world. Although there are some seemingly boring projects, after all, some projects must do boring things to promote industry progress.

Some of the projects that attract attention are those that cleverly blend reality and virtuality, as well as true on-chain commerce, projects that combine entertainment elements such as poker and tarot with Web3, optimized walk 2 earn applications, UI integration with mainstream Web2 games such as League of Legends, and avant-garde attempts to put personalized tattoo art on the chain.

Of course, some projects are trying to do things that have already been proven to be unsuccessful on other blockchains. But in any case, the long-term vitality of a project will ultimately need to withstand the severe test of the market, the continuous iteration of technology, and the continuous changes in user needs.
