Challenge Description
Imagine a web where “competing” apps and protocols actually work together to augment the user experience across all apps and services. What would that take? An interoperable web3 where where data is a first class citizen. What would it take to get us there? In this challenge, we invite you to think seriously about interoperability. How might you build in-roads, on-ramps, and bridges to connect the infrastructure of web3?
Examples include:
- Decentralized Identity (DiD) integrations for Textile technologies (think single-sign on tools for interacting with Textile/IPFS/Filecoin datasets).
- Repeatable approaches to bridging Buckets, Threads, or Powergate with protocols such as Ethereum, Near, Polkadot or solutions built on them.
- Tools for archiving existing peer-to-peer chat protocols such as Matrix or Secure Scuttlebutt (SSB) via Threads and/or Powergate.
- Integrating off-chain data from/to IPFS/Filecoin (via Textile) with blockchain oracles to provide services and support for on-chain transactions.
Feel free to ideate on any of the above ideas or create your own. This is a purposefully broad prompt, so use this as an opportunity to think outside the box, and find creative ways to bridge like-minded (or not!) communities operating across varying technologies and protocols. In particular, we want your solution to leverage the Textile Hub to help users access IPFS or Filecoin in a way that solves a real problem, simplifies a complicated workflow, or delivers measurable value. Ideally, your solution solves something for you!
Submission Requirements
Eligible projects must use the Textile Hub APIs to provide access to IPFS and/or Filecoin via an existing or new web3 protocol, smart contract, and/or web3-native application/tool. Examples include those listed above and others (ask if unsure about the target tool/platform you wish to develop for). Relevant portions of your code will also need to be made available and documentation should exist for users to test your solution.
Judging Criteria
Judges will select up to two winners based on functionality, design, and potential. We will judge functionality and design based on the submitted demo or video showing the tool in action. We will judge potential based on your written submission that describes the target market, the expected demand for the solution, and any plans for reaching an audience.
Winner Announcement Date
All submissions must be received no later than 11:59 PM EDT on Oct 15th, 2020, to be considered.
