0G, a decentralized Layer 1 specialized in AI workloads, announced the launch of WaveHack in partnership with AKINDO. This free buildathon starts on August 14.
Modular Blockchain System for AI
The 0G system is presented as the first decentralized Layer 1 for advanced AI, connecting hardware resources with data and models to create verifiable, censorship-resistant applications. The network's modular architecture allows for large-scale AI execution while supporting diverse use cases.
Six Waves with Increasing Rewards
The buildathon consists of six two-week phases, with grant allocations increasing during each phase. In the final phase, teams will receive $13,000, and developers participating in all six phases will share an additional $2,000 bonus. Projects will be judged based on criteria including functionality, integration with the 0G tech stack, and creativity.
Development Ideas for Participants
While participants have creative freedom, 0G has proposed several project ideas, including AI-powered chatbots, decentralized social platforms with AI-generated content, AI tools for DeFi, NFT marketplaces with dynamic traits, and games using AI for NPC creation and player analysis.
WaveHack by 0G is aimed at inspiring innovation while providing participants with the necessary skills and tools to develop AI applications, promoting real-world adoption of decentralized AI solutions.
