Bounty 3: $20,000 Owner: BNB Chain

Theme: Login with BSC
Type: Infra

Traditional email/password registration processes or One-click social logins via Facebook, Google, or GitHub are gaining popularity since launch, but they come with data privacy trade-offs.

Bounty 28: $60,000 Owner: KardiaChain

Title: Dual Node cross-chain and multichain support

KardiaChain is the world’s first fully interoperable and non-invasive blockchain platform.

Thanks to unique cross-chain technology, users in the KAI ecosystem not only transfer assets but also data - not many blockchain networks can achieve this.

If developers build applications on the KAI network, it's a piece of cake to deploy on all the other chains. Once familiar with KSML and start building on KAI, it saves developers time and effort of having to learn multiple coding languages, since KAI is already connected to major chains namely ETH, BNB.

In this hackathon, we’ve set up a total of $60k  for 3 winning projects (each is granted $20k respectively) The Prize of $60,000 includes 3 topics:

Metaverse: The Metaverse track includes specific topics such as decentralized identity, productive tooling, cross-chain transfer of NFT/FT assets, and SocialFi in Metaverse involving high-quality, on-chain content sharing.

GameFi: This includes any and all kinds of GameFi projects.

Financial NFT: The use of NFT specialties to generate more flexible financial products.

Condition: Must meet 2/3 criteria as below:

- Multichain on both BNB and Kardiachain

- Cross-chain between BNB and Kardiachain

- DApp tooling/utilities for multichain assets management on BNB and Kardiachain
