The FVM is a runtime environment for smart contracts on the Filecoin network. These smart contracts, also called actors, can be written in Solidity. This runtime is fully EVM compatible. This means devs are free to use whatever tool they are most comfortable with. Additionally, you will be able to take advantage of properties of the Filecoin network such as making, monitoring and interacting with storage deals.
About the Hackathon
The FVM is a runtime environment for smart contracts on the Filecoin network. These smart contracts, also called actors, can be written in Solidity. This runtime is fully EVM compatible. This means devs are free to use whatever tool they are most comfortable with. Additionally, you will be able to take advantage of properties of the Filecoin network such as making, monitoring and interacting with storage deals.
The FVM University hack Day is the opportunity for Student builders to build projects on FVM that benefit from the properties of decentralized storage network.
This hackathon is part of the of the Filecoin Orbit Community program|A group of volunteer Ambassadors who host Filecoin meetups and hackathons, publish educational materials about Filecoin, and build software using Filecoin, IPFS, or FVM.
Requirements
To get started, we have put together all resources in this FVM Hackathon Cheat sheet. This cheat sheet provides a guide to the following, in order:
-
Understanding Filecoin’s storage markets and deal flow
-
Where FVM comes in, and its capabilities
-
Ideas on how to build some popular use cases
-
Best DataDAOs built on FVM that enable curation, usage, storage and analysis of valuable datasets.
-
DeFi: Best DeFi tools and services built on FVM.
What to Submit
What to Submit
At a minimum submissions for prizes should include the following items:
- Project Description
- The name and summary of the project
- Names/pseudonyms of team members and contact info (e.g., GitHub handle, email address, or other)
- How the project uses the FVM with explicit links to files & functions in code where this technology is used and addresses of smart contracts deployed.
- Link to the publicly visible source code repository
- Provide comprehensive README, incl. a clear description of the work and mention of how our tech is used in the Technologies Used section of README.
- Include a link to the working demo or provide a testing guide
