Hey fellow devs and builders! It’s that time of year again where things get a little spooky… and we’re calling all tech rebels to join us in the Storacha Halloween Hackathon 2024!

Whether you’re a blockchain wizard, web developer, designer, or just someone who loves solving challenges, this is your chance to showcase your skills. We’re talking about decentralized storage, rebellious ideas, and $6666 in prizes! 😈

What’s This All About?

At Storacha, we’ve taken the phrase "everyone has skeletons in their closet" a little too seriously… because we store them! And by that, we mean data 😉. Our decentralized storage network is fast, secure, and keeps your data (or "skeletons") safe and sound.

For this Halloween hackathon, we’re challenging you to build something creative and rebellious using Storacha’s decentralized storage. Whether it’s a dApp, a spooky data backup solution, or something entirely unexpected—this is your moment to shine.
