The first ever Bitcoinference will also feature a hackathon! Come join us to meet like-minded people and work on exciting projects using the blockchain technology. The two challenge themes we’ll work with are: Blockstack open source ID management on blockchain Ethereum sidechain   (more on these themes below) This event is open for all who want to get hands-on with the possibilities of blockchain technology. You don’t have to be a blockchain developer to join! Agenda flow: We’ll kick off the day at 9AM with registration and a welcome coffee. Soon after, the challenge owners will introduce the themes from stage and you’ll have the choice to join either group. We’ll organize well-balanced teams per challenge theme to hack away on creating meaningful solutions that you’ll get to present at the closing ceremony, around 6PM. The closing audience will include the full conference participants and speakers (listed here: https://www.bitcoinferenceeurope.com/). So, you’ll have a good chance of meeting potential supporters (e.g. investors) for the next steps in your projects. We’ll end the day with a nice reception and party with a live DJ! We have very limited complimentary spots so grab yours now before they run out! Blockstack: Blockstack is a new internet for decentralized apps where users own their data. A browser is all you need to get started. Our open-source community is building protocols & tools that make it easy to build scalable decentralized apps. Blockstack comes with authentication, user data portability, decentralized storage, mobile SDKs (software development kits), a testnet, and more! During the day, the challenge is to get to know the technical aspects of blockstack, create your identity, start using it and decentralize an existing (open source) application. There is a guide for you to get started: https://community.blockstack.org/hackathon Ethereum sidechain: Ethereum has recently become one of the most prominent blockchain technologies, now serving close to one million transactions per day! A particularity of Ethereum is its ability to run ‘smart contracts’, which are programs that run on the the blockchain. Besides trading, these programs can be used for a wide range of potential applications, from crowdfunding to identify management to gaming. This hackathon track will aim at exploring the possibilities of Ethereum, and at imagining and developing new applications by means of smart contracts. Basic knowledge of Ethereum programming is desirable to participate to this hackathon track. If you have not yet acquainted with Ethereum, we recommend to follow the excellent Cryptozombie tutorial of the Loom network https://cryptozombies.io, which will quickly get you started with the main Ethereum concepts. Alrightie, grab your complimentary tickets and see you on June 1!
