Within the framework of the ETHDenver BUIDLathon, Parity Technologies announced a generous prize pool for both virtual and in-person attendees.
The first leg of the hackathon, ‘Pitch the Next Polkadot Parachain’, offers 5 prizes of $1,500 each. Participants must build a pitch deck of up to 15 slides to deliver a high-end presentation of a product that could win the next Parachain slot auction.
The second step is ‘Build a Polkadot Parachain Using Substrate’ for online participants of ETHDenver. Its applicants must write a full Substrate-based L1 blockchain.

The two winners of Phase II will receive prizes of $5,000 and $2,500.
Urban Oswald, Developer Relations Partnership Lead at W3F, stressed that his team is excited about the opportunity to add leading Ethereum (ETH) developers to Polkadot:
We are thrilled to be back at ETHDenver. It is a refreshing change of pace to not only participate in an individual event, but also to see how the entire Polkadot ecosystem has evolved. We have over twenty hours of Polkadot materials, from in-depth substrate workshops led by Parity core engineers to dozens of ecosystem projects, who demonstrate their technology in presentations, workshops, and panel discussions. I believe this year ETHDenver will be a resounding success!
In addition to the bounty campaign, the Web Foundation (W3F) and Parity Technologies are going to organize a series of educational events between February 15 and February 19.
