Challenge Description
This challenge is focused on building a real-time notification system using the Algorand blockchain. In web 2 we have established patterns for event architecture and publisher / subscriber model. For example all the consumers can listen to a source of an event and all the subscribers are notified when a certain even happens. In case of Algorand Blockchain, we have to poll the explorer to get status of events for example whether the transaction has been confirmed on chain, is the atomic swap has been completed or not. All the applications having this use case are writing their own logic for popping the blockchain. We are looking to build a solution that will enable subscribing to events on the blockchain and all the subscribers will be notified in real time of the various events they subscribe to.
Submission Requirements
A valid submission will include the source code via a Github repository linked to your Gitcoin submission, a recorded demo and an article that explains how the application works. It is expected that most bounty challenges will be won by fully functioning submissions, however, in certain cases, where there is a higher degree of difficulty, projects and payouts will be assessed on progress made. The project submission deadline is 17:00 EST on Wednesday the 2nd of November.
Judging Criteria
There will be a quadratic community voting element to the judging process that will commence shortly after the project submission deadline; this will close at 17:00 EST on Monday the 7th of November. Four judges from The Algorand Foundation will also assess each project submission by Monday the 14th of November.
The following criteria will be used to assess projects: IMPACT & USEFULNESS: How impactful and useful the submission is in the Algorand ecosystem as a whole ORIGINALITY, CREATIVITY & INNOVATION: How new and novel the submission is versus existing technologies MASS USABILITY: How feasible is the idea & how adaptable is it across other integrations TECHNICAL DIFFICULTY: What is the level of skill or knowledge required to build the submission CLARITY: How clear or easily understood the documentation, examples and pitch video is TEAM DIVERSITY: How diverse are the team’s skill sets & what is the quality of the team formation
Winner Announcement Date
Winners will be announced on Sunday the 20th of November, with payouts to be completed no more than one week thereafter. Ecosystem Funding may be issued at the discretion of the Algorand Foundation to retrospectively advance high potential projects.
