This week, web3 developers will gather in Paris for the largest annual Ethereum conference in Europe. “Why not let them enjoy themselves?” thought Findora. After all, “La vie est trop courte pour boire du mauvais vin.”
In a city as beautiful as Paris, it would be a shame to keep hackers in a dark hacker house in front of computer screens. Findora has a different approach for EthCC in Paris: let hackers enjoy the City of Lights as they build.
Although anyone around the globe can compete to win over $5,000 in grand prizes, participants in Paris for EthCC will get even more:
Registrants will get a ZK Circuit Map with hand-picked cafés where they can hack. The map marks notable sites in Paris where participants can decrypt riddles to win $500 USDT bonus prizes and exclusive NFTs Findora has minted called “ZK Moles.”
“We thought, ‘it would be a shame to come to this city and not be able to see any of the sites,’” said Findora Business Development manager Dylan Kawalec. “So we asked, ‘what can we do to give people the opportunity to walk around, enjoy this amazing city, and also hack? We didn’t want to just do what everyone else does.”
Maps will be handed out at the Maison de la Mutualité. Participants of the ZK Circuit Hackathon will also get brunch each day at EthCC. All projects must be an FRC-20 or FRC-721 project with zk and confidentiality features in mind. Although the hackathon is starting Tuesday, July 19th, late entrants are allowed!
