PlebLab hosts TopBuilder, a three-month hackathon that begins in January and ends in March. The application deadline is January 13, so if you're reading this now and want to apply, do it today.
The hackathon will be organized across three rounds, each lasting approximately one month, with participants evaluated based on the milestones they set for their projects at the beginning of the previous round. Judges will include Lisa Negott, founder of Base58 and the Bitcoin++ Conference, as well as Kelly Brewster, CEO of Wolf, a New York-based Bitcoin startup accelerator.
They are looking for any project related to Bitcoin and Lightning that has the potential to provide innovative solutions to current problems facing users and scale both systems today. There is also a chance to win $15,000 in Bitcoin as a prize for first place in the final round of judging.
