Announcing HackOnLisk2
Following the success of our first-ever online hackathon - HackOnLisk, we decided to organize a second edition this year. Participants now have the chance to build a blockchain application with the latest Lisk SDK using JavaScript as part of one of the two given categories: DeFi and GameFi.
A total of 60,000 USD worth of prizes, as well as other non-monetary prizes, will be awarded. We will be offering three main prizes for 1st place, 2nd place, and 3rd place for each of the two categories given.
Lisk Grant Program: Wave 1
In September we released a blog post introducing the two startups that have been selected and enrolled in the Grant Program as part of the first wave, each eligible for 60,000 CHF in funding for their individual projects. These are Enevti, a decentralized social media NFT platform, and Kalipo, a platform for the creation of DAOs.
Cross-Chain Message in a Bottle
If cross-chain updates are the envelopes used to deliver information from one chain to another, cross-chain messages are the actual content inside the envelope. To better explain this concept, this month we have released a blog post as part of the interoperability blog post series.
In addition to this, and to answer questions around the topic of "Cross-Chain Messages", our Research Scientist, Alessandro Ricottone and Iker Alustiza hosted a live AMA on YouTube on Tuesday, 28th of September, which you can watch here.
Monthly AMA: Ask Max Anything
Wednesday, September 8th, Max Kordek, CEO and Co-Founder at Lisk, hosted the monthly livestreamed AMA (Ask Max Anything) on YouTube. He answered questions about the biggest achievement for Lisk so far - the Lisk Mainnet migration, the Lisk interoperability solution and the corresponding LIPs (Lisk Improvement Proposals), the status of exchanges updating to Lisk Mainnet v3, as well as the plans for the upcoming months.
