Hi Substrate followers,
Today we are psyched to announce that the OAK Network dev team has made it to the finals and the Demo Day of the 2nd Polkadot Hackathon!
With the launch of the cross-chain protocol Polkadot , the blockchain ushered in the era of multi-chain inter-connection. The advantage of the Polkadot network is to link multiple different parachains together. Cross-chain interaction and collaborative work can be carried out among them.
The Polkadot Hackathon is an entrepreneurial competition in the Polkadot ecosystem, and hosted together by Parity Technologies, Web3 Foundation Team
, Oneblock+ and PolkaWorld, IOSG, SNZ, Hashkey, Fenbushi Capital, and Multicoin Capital.
With its outstanding tech capability, the OAK Network team managed to make its way to the finals through the intense competition. On July 17th and 18th, OAK Network will join other teams on the Demo Day at Hangzhou, China, presenting to the 16 judges and guests from Parity dev advocates, institutional investors, media and community audience.
In this hackathon, OAK Network will demo a web application for the Quadratic Funding pallet. Quadratic funding pallet developed by OAK has won an Open Grant award from Web3 Foundation Team. This time OAK Network is building a user friendly, feature rich dApp by combining the pallet, a chain explorer and serverless cloud functions. The dApp provides a interactive UI like Ethereum’s Gitcoin, allowing users to make contributions on chain with Polkadot.js wallet, and providing neat features such as relative transaction catalogue, contribution diagram, users likes and comments, etc.
A brief list of the dApps features is:
● A landing page displaying campaigns and participating projects
● Project pages showing the specs of a single project, including but not limited to the project name, description, founder’s wallet address, website, contribution stats, and etc.
● User contribution via polkadot.js wallet extension.
● Transaction catalogue convenient for users to query history of contributions.
● Interactive GUI turning numbers into self-explanatory charts
● Likes and comments for user interaction.
For the full list of tech specs, please refer to OAK GitHub hackathon submission.
