Looking back at ETHernals: India's largest Web3 Hackathon
ETHernals brought together 9000+ Web3 buidlers from across the globe to build the decentralized future. Read on to learn more.
ETHernals, the first ETHIndia Online Hackathon in 2022 that kicked off on 25th February, brought together the highest of builders together along with industry experts, advisors, mentors, and companies to collaborate, innovate and build decentralized applications with the potential of mass adoption.
A big shoutout to our sponsors for being the backbone of ETHIndia's solid growth by setting up bounties worth a record of $110,000+ this time at ETHernals, not to mention the mentorship and amazing speaker sessions which helped the builders polish their projects to perfection!
Speaker Sessions
We invited the who's who of the Blockchain Industry to ignite the spark in our hackers, including Austin Griffith and Sandeep Nailwal.
The various sessions covered everything from how to start building on Ethereum, code along sessions for minting an NFT on Polygon to various panel discussions on NFTs, DAOs and DeFi. Our sponsor workshops helped the hackers get interesting insights about their platforms and how to tailor them to suit their Dapp and bag those bounties 💰
