Holochain Hackathon - Collingwood, Melbourne

DESCRIPTION We're here to build apps on Holochain - If you've been looking to build Dapps (Distributed Applications), but have come up against the limitations of Ethereum or other Blockchain technologies, you need to see what Holochain is all about. Join us to dig in and build an MVP (Minimum Viable Product) version of your app over the weekend. We're looking for Blockchain start-ups and software developers (Javascript is super helpful!) to come join us to build out your apps on a next generation distributed platform. Arthur Brock, cofounder of the open source Holochain joins us from the US. He shares how this new "post-blockchain" architecture eliminates bottle necks and allows for true scaling. Find out more. Distributed computing and applications Scalable post-blockchain Decentralized solutions with no bottlenecks and versatile public/private validation strategies. Actually peer-to-peer Data is sharded across a network of full peers. No centralized servers, ledgers, or different user classes. Agent-centric computing Rigorously ethical, lossless approach to data integrity and context-specific provenance. There is ample time for questions about Holochain and the imminent ICO for Holo, a distibuted hosting app. Agenda Friday 16th March 6pm Networking 6.30 Presentation by Arthur Brock How holochain overcomes the limitations of current blockchain technology. How to create stable, asset-backed currencies that cannot be hijacked by speculators. How to build resilient local communities for more sustainability. There will be plenty of opportunities for questions. Have a good idea for your community or for the world? Let's take it from plan to working prototype in just 3 days. Hackathon with hands-on support from Friday 16 March at 6pm to Sunday 18 March at 4pm
