All 63 winning projects →EVM Gas Options Decentralized Exchange used for hedging Gas price spikes, especially in protocols that require a lot of gas, such as ZK and FHE usage.
We built a private onchain voting system with sybil resistance by combining MACI and zkTLS. This allows for fairer governance by eliminating bribery and collusion, and enabling private voting based on off-chain contributions.
DATRIX is an AI-powered app that turns simple text prompts into production-ready APIs for Web3 data. It automatically scans subgraphs, generates queries, and delivers standardised data through a single endpoint—reducing hours of setup work to just 60 seconds.
A decentralized platform where AI coordinates a fleet of autonomous machines and robots to manufacture customized products.
