Hackathon participants will also be competing for $10,000+ in prize bounties, posted by a variety of companies, protocols, and organizations.
Microsoft, our organizing sponsor, will be posting prizes across their suite of blockchain projects. MythX — providing security analysis tools for the Ethereum ecosystem — will be posting $10,000 in bounties across their newly released products. There will be some prizes from Gitcoin as well!
