Halloween? It’s Hackathon!

The coding journey started on the afternoon of October 26th. Even though the space was filled with intense discussions by participants, the Halloween decorations created holiday atmosphere and relieved the anxiety of participants.

In order to help solve the problems participants may encounter, BitMart’s two senior technical strategists Dongsheng Yang and Jingbo Zhang also accompanied the whole coding process on site.

As the time was approaching the end, the discussion between each team became fiercer and fiercer. The products of each team were gradually formed with one after another problem being solved. Tonight, in Shanghai, blockchain enthusiasts from all over the country ignited their dreams with passion!

Blockchain To Change The World

After 48 hours’ hackathon, the whole competition was officially ended on 10:30 AM, October 28th. Vincent Gu, CTO of BitMart, and other professional judges marked the projects of each team.

Of all the projects, the team “MYQD” from Central University of Finance and Economics impressed BitMart technical team the most. Their project was Decentralized Exchange Based On Bancor. The presentation was clear, the project structure was complete, and the demo ran very smoothly. The project was highly praised by Vincent Gu and the technical team. 10,000 BMX and BitMart’s limited T-shirts were given to the team “MYQD” as prizes.
