HackFS 2023 Closing Ceremonies and Demos
HackFS 2023·ETHGlobal·Mon, Oct 9, 2023, 12:00 AM
Join Kartik Talwar from ETHGlobal for the Closing Ceremonies and Finalist Demos. We are incredibly excited to welcome back a community favorite: From June 2-21, 2023 we are joining forces for the fourth year in a row with Protocol Labs, one of the ecosystem's biggest open-source research, development, and deployment laboratories. Their projects include IPFS, Filecoin, libp2p, and many more. If you enjoyed last year's HackFS event, strap in—because this year will be even more phenomenal! For the first time, we will have prizes from The Filecoin Virtual Machine (FVM) for a HackFS, a runtime environment for smart contracts (also called actors) on the Filecoin network. FVM brings user programmability to Filecoin, unleashing the enormous potential of an open data economy. We are excited to respond to a highly requested community demand after our successful hacks FVM Space Warp in February of this year and Hack FEVM which took place in November of last year with this! ----------------- Follow us: https://twitter.com/ETHGlobal Check us out: https://ethglobal.com Email us at: hello@ethglobal.com

foreign [Music] good afternoon good evening everybody my name is kartik one of the co-founders of eth global and I'm super excited to welcome all of you to hack FS 2023 this is the fourth time we're running this event and it's so incredible to kind of see the fourth iteration here after four years of doing this and I want to thank everybody who's watching this and tuning in on youth global.tv this will be using for all of today which means you get to interact with all of us and our our teams and speakers to uh can I ask them any questions or any follow-ups and for us to also address any questions that you have so let's get started so this hackathon is brought to you by eat Global in partnership with Oracle labs and our goal Atif Global is to onboard thousands of developers into the web 3 ecosystem and we do this primarily by running hackathons and Summits and these are both online and in person hack FS is one of our online events for this event we also did an online Summit that talked about all the things that are happening in the protocol Network protocol Labs network uh everything from how they're thinking about consensus to compute to storage and all the things that you can look forward to in the next coming months two years and that took place on Friday June of June the second all the videos of the talks and panels are up now for you to watch and catch up on you can head over to the it's Global YouTube channel to see all those amazing speakers but the next hour and a half is about this was an amazing and massive event for us we had 800 almost 840 Hackers from 76 different countries participate and they came in from 23 different time zones uh we kind of put a map of where people were coming in from all the cities and it's still amazing to see constant representation from six different continents so welcome to all of you and thank you for tuning in for some of you uh super late at night and super early for a lot of you on top of just the hackers we also had 29 ecosystem partners and 12 mentors who are there to help you succeed with your projects and also giving a lot of help and advice and they were also giving in 150 000 in prizes so today we'll also cover who won what prizes so stay tuned until the end of this to learn about what the winners are I also want to quickly thank all of those amazing Partners who made sure the last three weeks were incredible for all 840 of you um and without further Ado you want to thank give a big shout out to altcoin bitcoin lit P2P bacliao ceramic Lighthouse tableland poly base live Pier Idaho one Barracks push protocol ens nft dot storage sphere on lit protocol dran dataverse OS Vision Mona and chainsafe ipfs altcoin data tools consensus lab Saturn secure Finance graph paper Capital outlier Ventures and popcorn foundations most of them are giving amazing prizes so we'll be learning about who won what prizes and and what they built so let's go back to why we are here in this finale call 838 hackers spent the last three weeks working on incredible projects and together they made 200 projects that came out of this event 200 projects were submitted this past Sunday just three days ago and we spent the last three days going through all the projects going through judging looking at every single one of them getting feedback from judges doing live calls with the teams to get feedback and not get any questions clarified and get any answers for anything that went into building those amazing projects and through that whole judging process we are here with nine finalist teams so I want to congratulate first those teams and what today is going to be about is we're going to bring these nine teams on and they're going to show a live demo of what they built and what their project does and how they built it and why so I want to quickly congratulate these nine teams we have wallet OTP artsite Hangouts decentral AI chitty chat Cosmic waves subprober daggle defy kicks and web3 stash these are our nine teams that are going to come on one by one and demo what they built today for all of you to look and after that we'll kind of we're going to cover all the prizes and everything else that we want to talk about before we wrap up hack FS 2023 so before we go into the very first demo I want to take a quick second to thank 191 teams listed here for all the amazing work that they've done just because you were not one of these nine finalists does not mean there was something wrong with your project or you were not good enough the goal for the final list is for us to highlight some projects that our judges and the rest of the ecosystem is excited about as upcoming themes or just super creative ideas a lot of you here are going to be winning and have won a lot of prizes which you'll be learning about very soon and we want to make sure that you also use this as an opportunity to learn and get more feedback on your project this is by no means a way for you to be discouraged we really want you to succeed we really want you to be working on your projects after this event ends today and we want to be there to help you get any help you need whether it's being connected to any of our partners or getting more feedback from a judge right after this event ended or any other person that's within our Network or the protocol Labs Network that you would like to be in touch with to take your project to the next stage we want to be there and want to help you make that happen so please do take the time to Ping us and get any feedback in or ask us for anything that we can do for you and we really hope that a lot of you get to continue working on the projects after this event ends so with that let's Jump Right In to our very first demo for today and that is Project wallet OTP so without further Ado I'd like to bring on our first team and step welcome and uh looking forward to seeing what you built awesome thanks karzik hey hack FS I'm Steph rapilia and I'm a web3 Dev who likes building products that are useful today I'm presenting wallet OTP which is a decentralized wallet encrypted two-factor authentication app that provides one-time passwords for all of your services across web 2 and web3 first of all let's start with a little bit of context what's 2fa that stands for two-factor authentication and it's the idea that you want to have two ways to log in so the first way is usually your password and then the second way can be an OTP or a one-time password sent to one of your devices and that makes it harder for hackers to hack in or get access to your account making it more secure current OTP Solutions include twilio's authyab Google Authenticator and Duo by Cisco there are other apps that exist and can hold those two up-based secret keys that log you into accounts but I noticed some problems uh mainly centralization so these apps have centralized storage and also centralized encryption mechanisms so those lead to a variety of issues first of all data available availability issues if the storage goes down and also you don't have data sovereignty because some other app is doing the decryption of your secrets and then worst of all there's a ux issue at this these apps limit you to just one device at a time so if you lose your phone or you can't log in for any reason you lose access to all of your Social accounts which is the worst so these are two memes I made basically I think that otps or authenticator apps should first of all have better ux so you should be able to access them from any device and I also wanted to get rid of the centralization problem so that you own the encryption mechanism so this is really for anyone who cares about data sovereignty and also security and uses a ton of devices like I do so this is 2fa reimagined with decentralized storage encryption and OTP generation on any device I'll walk you through the demo demo in a moment but this is kind of like the tech behind it basically you can open the app on any device even your phone uh you sign in with wallet connect and then lit protocol decrypts all of your secrets that have been stored in polybase and then you can encrypt more secrets if you want to or you can just read your one-time passwords that are generated every 30 seconds so this is kind of what the UI looks like but next we'll get straight into the demo if you want to check it out yourself feel free to scan this QR code but I'm going to walk through a demo where I actually add a authenticator app so I'm going to add 2fa to my real email Google account so let me add an authenticator and the authenticator app will be wallet OTP which is my app so I'm just signing in with my password and I'll set up an authenticator so I need to set this up by scanning a QR code and I'll do that from my phone so you can see my phone on the right side I'm just opening metamask metamask actually has a browser and my app is within the browser it's also a website but this is well at OTP this is what the DAP looks like I'm just going to sign in with my wallet so connecting with metamask come on Wi-Fi okay here we are you see I already added a b-reel to a face secret um you can see the actual secret if you click in or you can see all of the encrypted data but I'm actually going to add another 2fa secret you can either scan this code or enter it manually but I'm going to scan it asks to use my camera so that was just all auto-generated from that scan it grabbed the service which is Google the account which is my email and the 2fa secret from the service so I'm just going to encrypt and save this data lit is doing the encryption behind the scenes oh did I I don't know if I uh actually push that button user error okay encrypting and saving and here we go okay it's asking me to sign the message to encrypt and save this data you can see what's been encrypted and it's super fast which is awesome you can see I already have that OTP on the side so I actually need to validate that this is working so I've already scanned I'm just going to hit next and I'll enter the code we just got a new code 340-550 from the service verifying that and my authenticator app has been set up just to show that this actually works I'm going to open a new private browser and I'm going to sign into my account um in a way that will make me prove my 2fa Factor so I'll go to the Google account this was my account I need to enter my password and then the last thing I need to do is send myself a code from the authenticator app so it's asking for my new code let me just open the app one more time and we'll get my new code nine five six go to seven and there we go I'm into my account so wallet OTP successfully got me back in so just to give a bit of a recap of that demo I'm storing three different factors service account and Secret in decentralized storage and it's encrypted ahead of time by lit and then once it's stored in polybase the database is public but all of the information has already been encrypted so the only person who can decrypt it is the person whose account it is in this case mine and I used wallet OTP to actually get that one-time password the way I'm doing that is with a totp or time-based OTP algorithm basically it's hashing my secret which was added in that modal and then also hashing that with the current time so that every 30 seconds that password changes that's OTP wallet OTP I would love to hear what you think scan this QR code and tweet me some feedback thank you so much I had so much fun hacking at Haka Fest thanks to the judges and the youth Global team thank you so much Steph this was awesome and thanks for going uh first to be our first amazing demo uh this is really cool hopefully all of us get to uh to use it soon and uh good luck in making this even better thanks kartik all right take care so that was our first of nine I want to get ready for our next teams and what I want to do next is bring on speaker number two that is ding Chao from decentral AI yes we can oh awesome so um let's introduce our fantastic teamwork with them foreign Berkeley researchers emphasizes the need of cleaning oh yeah more but the way big firms The Obedience of honor to help out our data without asking and without sharing and discovering just all from until AI makes keyboards and dating but we are left out and not getting shared please we should cite or hurt yet and decentralized is the answer if you do this step 3 to unlock community where data sets and a apps built together and carbon Electric Al Data Solutions but also ensures that other Financial plans are still doing encouraging very valuable and the best part no couldn't make now let's dive into the demo you can visit decentral.us and login use your wallet then you should be able to explore order dials and apps being created by all the by other members and then let's also create a new down for fire coin virtual machine co-pilot to empower vehicle emergency machine education through collaboration and AI and the dial creation can involve token creation so that we can Define all the reward distribution to members up front after reviewing all the details then you can click deploy to make sure that that your reward is guaranteed by smart contract and then so that we make sure that people can collaborate trustlessly using blockchain moh once your dial has been created now people can join without by taking on various flows such as data contributor add your own data or data Wizards uh process including the data storage provider instructor server hosts in ETC once you click join then we will mince nmt to recognize your membership see this is the way like we can involve people from different backgrounds with different skills to contribute and work together and next let's add a data set this is where really the cloud sourcing shines see this slides where we can allow people to contribute knowledge just like Wikipedia style and with decentralized people can upload data from web 2 or web 3 storage providers such as ipfs and ceramic let's just add a FM tutorial uh and then the tutorial will be encrypted using lead protocol by signing the transaction so that we can provide an abstract value of security and permission so that only controlled wallet can access your uploaded data and then we will trigger a buckler job to create process the data put them into different chunks and then convert them into one embeddings so that it can be pre-processed and consumed by am models once you're embedded is done you will receive communication from push saying that the job is done now you can check your document and then next we can create our AI app so we've integrated with um easy a fantastic open source uh large language model Ops dashboard to allow anyone to manage their uh an AI box and here people can configure pumps variables contacts or without loading now let's just add the FM tutorial to the channel to the chatbot and have the FM knowledge to help any users then we just click publish and now your Bot is live on sephiro and then let's test it out to chat you think we're just connect to your wallet and then now let's add the chatbot or FM question how to send a data yield true f so where it speaks the question and then you see like our data protocol will check my wallet has the right access to your earbuds and then in a few seconds we see that response I think generated by child activity with the knowledge has been crowds noticed by essential and it is quite powerful but it doesn't just stop there you can also um uh check how to create an API key so that other people can also build on all of your AI and the API fixation is also security and also like almost like and um okay that's why can enter a better uh demonstration example and we are working to incorporate a zeroid proof library to make sure that the ranking and the Voting is done anonymously using CTP and not speak at our underlying that so essential I could build on Apple or if I can move and that allows um foreign thank you amazing thank you so much for for that awesome demo and uh it's good to hear that uh you kind of were able to add all these features to this project and really make it super powerful so hopefully you also get to continue working on this and uh thanks again all right take care all right on to our third demo for today I want to bring on team Cosmic waves to show you what Amazing Project that they built together so welcome everybody and feel free to get started hello thank you so I'm here to present you Cosmic words but first of all Huawei well we are a team that works together in Portugal I'm a product manager Philippa unfortunately couldn't make it but she did everything that she'll see uh here look awesome and then we have our developers that we draw and build that build and made all of our family possible so we worked together as I said then we faced a problem as in we wanted to experience music together remotely but we couldn't find a solution that will simulate the experience of doing it in a room or and listening to the music at the same time either everyone was listening to the song out of sync or there was a lot of blood things and even if you are a content creator that's the question of uploading your your contacts to to a storage or to a server that you don't own so that is the problem that we had and then we built a solution which is calls me please at least then show like peer-to-peer free broadcasting station not allows content creators to share my music and their songs to anyone anywhere in the world so a little bit about the architecture basically uh lead p2pr card coordinates the storage and stores the silencing ipfs while bodybuilder is installing the metadata of those files but this is all happening in the background what does actually happen for for the user so as a streamer I will go to the Colony coins websites connect my robot because anonymity is important so now that my streamer wallet is connected I can access the stream web page after verification and on this web page I can see the places spoilers already created and I can add new song files to it for example the office thing or even our own opening theme these files are being uploaded to ipfs as you can see I have to sign these these requests and once the files are uploaded I'll be able to add them to to my playlist as you can see so once the files are on the playlist me as a streamer the only thing that I have to do is to start by my stream and once I don't uh what I what I have with some valve on this amazing playlist will start being streamed on on cost liquids so I'll start the stream I'll do I do have to to stop the screen sharing so you'll be able to to hear the audio so just give me a second cool now you are seeing cosney coins as anyone in the world you're not a stream when you just sort of cosmic points it's just sort of that's a popular content creator is there showing their music so you should we'll just have to go to the website no sign in required and just tune in and once you are tuned in you are broadcasting you can but listen to music at the same time as everyone else in the world with Lucy so this is a problem but we had uh it is a solution but I doubtly brought but Allah I want to enjoy it with magnesium magnetism piece of art together and to simulate the experience of action with showing around and with music so this is called sequence and thank you for listening oh that was uh such an incredible amazing demo it's uh really good to see a decentralized radio player it's a surprise that we haven't seen this happen yet and uh finally we kind of have a way to make this work everywhere this is incredible congratulations and hopefully all of us get to uh watch a live stream here very soon we're like cheers thank you everyone thanks everybody so next up is our demo number four and that is project daggle so without further Ado I'd like to bring on our next team Leo to talk about daggle welcome we'll try to get started Leo okay hey guys uh so I'm Leo from team daggle and this is my submission for the hacker first 2023 hackathon and like before starting with the demo let me explain you guys what uh really Douglas and what it does and the Technologies behind diagonal so daggle is basically in platform to offload your extensive workloads to backlog backload is an open decentralized network of notes which take in Docker images and webassembly coach and executes it for you so like this is this can be an cost effective alternative to AWS Lambda and Google collab so yeah this is see like this is an overview of what uh really daggle does now let's get into ammo so uh like first let's go to the marketplace in the marketplace like we have something called as actions so basically these are actions uh what really action is that uh it's like pre-built Docker images and quotes which we have already done it for you guys so with just a matter of clicks you can upload your actions to backflow and for this demo like I'll be showing you guys two actions which is a remove background and node.jscript first let me go with remove background so what a remote background basically does is that it will take an image as an input like for this demo like I'll be taking this image where you can find a family with a good background and look let me remove this background for you guys let's open that image and let's submit this image to the backload to remove the background yeah let's wait for it so yeah it is done and like before seeing the result for that let me also submit and load your script here you can find a sample script but you can replace it with your own script insta so here let me change hello world from level to uh hello from hack up first final something like that so let me create that blog for you so yeah let's wait for it to submit so yeah it is done so you can see all those jobs here a script node.js and the remote PG like these two are the jobs which I have submitted now before checking the resource like I would like you to uh like I would love to show you guys around my platform about the features which we offer we have something called as data sets and models here uh like you can use these data sets to create the models uh like using an action which we have which is called as train model action in the background it uses tensorflow as an uh code you have to paste your python code here and you can even mention the data set which you want to use here so if you don't have a data set here like you can upload from this tab so yeah uh once you have selected your data set you can click on train model once the model is trained and everything is done you can find all of your models here so yeah and we also have something called as credits so like if you need to run an action platform you obviously need credits so buy those credits we take you have to pay like we have five credits for five file coins so like this is just a demo like literally you might be changing that and we have also enabled notifications for you guys like it uses push in the background push notifications so whenever there is some status update uh all those notifications will be pushed to you and like you have to subscribe to it like daggle and we have also enabled ens for you guys so that uh click names and avatars will be resolved for you and like in the background we'll be using ethers and within Pro like we need an RPC URL for that which supports uh resolving those names yeah a pretty this is Daniel and yeah now let's check the results for these two which we have submitted earlier so yeah uh you can click on check Crystal to get your results the ipfs notes osterion backlog like it takes some time uh so instead what we will be doing is that we'll copy the job ID and we will directly edit from the CLI which is a cloud kit and the job ID let me also uh get the results for the remove BG let me go to my other control get yep let me submit that too so yeah you can see that there's a new photo which is being created there are D7 sure we can see the outputs and that search yeah you can see that hello from hack FS final which we have submitted earlier and let's check for this yeah even this thing got published yeah okay let me bring my terminal down you can see that we haven't modified image yeah pretty much this is like this is our platform this is daggered for you guys hope you like my presentation and thanks for seeing amazing thank you so much Leo that was uh it was great a really cool demo to be able to actually send all these kind of package shops to be able to do this in all decentralized way and hopefully you get to add a lot more actions for people to uh to use that's it yep rats all right next up is our demo number five I want to bring on Mohit to talk about what three stash welcome I know so hi everyone this is Mohit and this is my project web3 stash which is a standard library to get a single API to connect to multiple decentralized service providers so you all might have used uh decentralized storage networks to store your data and probably you would have used services like ipfs pinata nft dot Storage web3.
storage but the problem that mostly the users face and especially the new users face is that they get confused between all these services that they like take a lot of time to understand how to upload Json data how to upload uh video how to upload image across all these services and uh the another problem is like the syntax along across these services are quite different so if you have to migrate from one service to another you have to understand their documentation they have you have to change your code which takes a little bit of time for your your development process to solve all these issues and have a common interface between uh all of these decentralized storage networks and services web 3 stash has been made so what you have to exactly do is basically you just have to install web 3 stats Library you don't have to install any other Library if you want to use any of the service providers you just have to install web3 stash it is uh it supports common JS and es6 formats so you can use it in any node project once you have installed the web3 stash Library you just have to instantiate the web3 stash Constructor and pass the servicening so services like services are like this ipfs HTTP in QR pinata so whatever service you want to use just put the name here like pinata or ipfs and then provide the config config is like the private key or the API key or API secret needed for that service you can keep the config options null if you want to have advanced options then you can use it but only these two things are needed to connect to the ipfs through any of these services and once you have instantiated that you just have to call these functions which is same across all the services so if you want to upload Json just call service.upload Json and pass the Json data if you want to upload image just put the path and image gets uploaded video and file the best part is another thing is like the output for all of these Services I have also kept saying across in the npm library so whatever the service you are using you will get the output in this format like the ID which is basically the hash you want to store on the smart contracts etc etc and then the metadata associated with it if you want to use it you can use it but the output is same the functions are same and it's just wow like a single line syntax to use so you can use like here here guys just launch so you can use here also you just you don't have to pass any config as well in here just pass here here is ready then call the services same way for pinata just instantiate with with three stash pinata pass the API key and API Secret and then you have all these services with you have like upload from stream as well stream is like for big videos or big images so you have to do chunk of loading if you are uploading from AWS or any other service so that is also simplified here just provide the readable string it will do chunk uploading uh for the big videos and big images so let me go quickly to the demo so this is I have created a test uh npm uh project to test the website Library the web3 stash is currently available on npm so you can use it right away as well so I have just instantiated all the services so you can see just one line one instant situation web 3 stash parsing in QR pinata and I have just provided all these things and once I have done this so I will just call any of the services so let's say I want to use the incura service Library service so I will just 0 npm start and just take 30 seconds to upload the video and I will get the hash yeah so you can see I got the output from the I have console.gov so this is like the ipfs hash so if I just open it you can see there is metadata and the ID so if I just go on the gateway to check like whether it's really uploaded yeah the video is there so same way like if you want to use pinata these are the things to use for thinata like different different kind of service you can just pass directly by juicing and you have to just provide the path all these things are kept here in my local so I will just call this thing and this is done SO waiting for its upload and same way for stream upload so you can see there is a pinata stream upload so if you want to do Chunk Up loading so this is the way I am creating a read string and then I'm just providing the string to the upload video from stream stuff so I will just comment out this thing and I will just call this but we'll upload the video in chunks and probably it's a small video but if it's a big video you will see the difference of uploading it in the chunks and from the string so this is almost all about my project so if you are like using any of the decent live storage networks and if you are using any of these services use web3 stash ease out your development process thank you awesome there's a nice uh well this is super cool because I have myself tried to do this a lot of times for large files and it's just always tricky to figure out the stream movable upload so now I only get to use the library for you cool so this is great thank you all right next up is demo number six I want to bring on Naomi to talk about heartsite Hangouts I'll come okay hi everyone my name is Nanny I'm a front-end developer and for the past two weeks I've been building Hub site Hangouts a mobile app told book clubs so you might be thinking well web free and book clubs what does this have to do well to put simply there's a lot of issue you can run into when you're a member of a book club from you know getting your Source materials with you know banned books to organizing or even moderation and the good thing is that web free Tech can help and that's how I got the idea to build a mobile app that will help readers find their book club but also have more easier and meaningful conversation thanks to milestone-based reading and dropping audio call and now that you're all caught up with outside hangout it's it's time for the small demo all right so the first thing we're gonna do is explore the clouds so right now I'm not connected so I cannot see any club but if I go and check this club details I can see the current read who is running the cloud and I can also see here that they have a couple of discussions however I'm not signed in therefore I do not have access to the discussion and here in the schedule that I can see the different Milestones but again since I'm not signed in I do not have access to them so to fix this what we're going to do is we're going to sign up here I'm gonna sign up with my Google account so this social sign in is followed by Magic SDK which allows users to sign in with their Google account Twitter account any Social account but under the hood they are actually using a web free wallet so this is gonna just take us a couple more seconds it's gonna still take a couple more seconds to appear and in the meantime I'm gonna just explain that all the data that you see in the app are actually sold on polybase and we don't need to sign any messages thanks to the magic SDK all right so I'm signed in now if I go back to the clubs I unlocked the my club Tab and I can see all the different clubs that I'm either running or I'm a member of so if I go to this club what we're going to do first we can see here that I can update the details and I can also change the current reads so let's go ahead and do that okay so here we're gonna have access to the wall range of books thanks to the Google Books API so we picked a book now it's getting index to our polybase database I'm going to set it as our current so all I didn't mention it yet but all the images that you can see in the app or other media for that matter are stored thanks to web free storage all right so now we have our car reads being set and now that we set a read I'm going to edit the schedule by adding different milestones right we add our title we set let's say today in one hour and we're gonna create our milestone so our Milestone was added properly and here I can see that I can join an audio room for my Milestone so let's go ahead and do that and here it's gonna open uh huddle 01 audio room all right we got the room open here but we can also see here that in the club discussions um I have access to this Milestone room that I just created and I can sorry about this I can share messages in the club room and any other members will be also allowed to post messages and read them but if you're not a member of the club you won't be able to do that so now if we go back to the schedule tab we can see here that I have this uh Milestone that I created earlier and I can RSVP right I RSVP now if I go to my calendar I can see here that it will successfully added to my calendar with the link that I showed earlier all right and that's how slide Hangouts in a nutshell thank you very much for watching this demo and thank you for it Global and all the sponsors for this amazing thanks so much Naomi and this is super cool to see that uh you kind of built something that you're also super passionate about and also gets more people into up three this is great all right um three more demos to go so let's bring our third last team cheaty chat to our demo so Patrick welcome for free to get started with what we built that's good thank you very much hello everyone I'm Patrick from the city Trap Team those are hard to imagine most of the time the tools used to communicate like Discord or telegram are not what tree optimized we wanted to create a tool that would make it easy to create a data dial manage it and interact with it leveraging other web 3 tools natively all within a shot itself so we created Chit Chat um so let's imagine we are an AR R collected and we want to experiment with AI tools we want to create the perfect prompt with the art of an AI system create the art itself and create the art that will be stored using filecoin using the push-up we can create an fdm data diode chat group with participating wallets and execute various commands so for example here I can create exam did a dial with a simple click just have to create my name description nothing to uh too interesting share and then I can add whatever wallets I want within this bit about all every single wallet but that is integrated into the digital dial has the same boarding rights in terms of what they want to do for um for voting in terms of creating proposals and saving uh files and so in the back end what happens essentially is just by creating this group chat uh they did a doubt shot um all the different filecorn SDM uh contrast get deployed and uh and all the tokens the business are votes the governance of every all of that gets automatically created for everyone within that chat um so once it that was created we can communicate within the chat as I said before and we're finally try those those premium features so one example is like calling cha GPT API that can only be accessed using super fluid Bitcoin streams so right now in effect uh this chat is token gated using eight point um so going back for example uh let's begin by creating a suitable stable diffusion prompt using chat GPT so we're asking Chad DPT to create us a prompt to then be able to use that prompt for stable diffusion so we get a prompt back which is great I have saved a prompt already to use this and what we're going to do is we're going to call bakalao um Rebecca Long network uh the stable diffusion application on top of the background network with the specific prompt that we want to create um to create an image from it and this is all within the chat every single person within the chat can see what's going on so from this um from this like a job essentially we just created we can fetch uh the outcome or the job once it's done and then well this touching essentially we already have done it before we have a nice little celebrate picture through those creative Network um with this file now we can push it over to ipfs create a car file from it just straight from the chat and then the most powerful kind of aspect to this application is that now we can propose uh to save this file uh just within the chat itself so by doing by doing call to a funky call F10 proposed within this arguments we can create a proposal within this data dial within the chat that will store this file so what's going to happen here is that in the back um this this proposal will be sent over to a Smart contract an idea is going to come out of this proposal and then anyone within this chat can uh vote The Proposal so you can go and call fcm go and you need the right proposal ID for it we already have a professionals idea of 384 us to do this at this point we're going to have essentially three buttons are going to come out a yes no and abstain for anyone to be able to vote on this proposal again we're we're the proposal is to save the stable diffusion image that we just created I'm going to go ahead and say yes I like this uh image so now we're going to go from the go early Network which was and then we'll use the fork to the file core Network switch to that the pop-up of winner mask saying that you you want to vote um yes will come up and be able to confirm and at that point and we go back to the growling Network which is the current Network for this job and so right now that has been sent out the proposal will um as the votes get counted and as a timeline uh time of the vote gets uh gets finished then at that point between RPM execute execute this vote uh where the right proposal ID which then will save the file that we've just created within the chat um onto the Network um so again just to go back to what we've done we've successively created a data dial with other artists creating a prompt using charge GPT used back allowed to create a stable diffusion image fetched and uploaded this file to ipfs we proposed using our Dev our data dial to save the styles of filecoin and we've fully voted and executed the vote all within the same application making making it very very simple um to be able to manage what's going on with this step thank you very much and thanks for listening amazing thanks Patrick this is super cool and I feel like we're just crashing the surface on what you can do with that prompts and uh enabling with a lot of the web 3 protocols and seeing data now is use this way is even more losing because you could bring in the group chat with all the contributors you need fun rats thank you all right two more demos to go so welcome our second last demo for today which is teen sub proverb the login uh hi everyone this is from Team subscribe uh we built uh an all-in-one and no code centralized IPC subnet Explorers so you probably know all the keywords uh maybe I can explain what is the IPC subnet is IPC is a shorter of interpreter consensus and subnetsis like sub network uh what does this do uh you can launch your own chain inside the falcoin and you can launch your own chain specifically or for your app where our gamer Etc and you can communicate with other subnets and you can communicate you can send Crosshair messages and you can benefit all the file coin features by using your subnet so why sub proper we specific reviews for IPC subnets and this is everything including Crossing messages which is a IPC subnets feature and of course transactions accounts and blocks are in the Sim tool we have a CLI tool to subnet creators to deploy our infrastructure to decentralized network of bits no codes it's just one comment and we are using tableland and swirl for the centralized data and centralized computes so I can start my demo by using rcli Tool uh rcli tool has need three arguments first of all these roots RPC providers and the second is subnet IPC provider and third one is foreign API key so I'm clicking enter and it's deploying our infrastructure also the sphere Network and this will have some take time and uh I'm going I'm going to my local node you can see our front-end uh we have index in the back end we utilize filecom.js to make our sqls make way way more easier and it's crazy database based statements and insert into into the table lens SQL storage which is a decentralized also and we have a server utilize the express.js to serve data from tableland to our front end so this is our front end I built this with a react and I integrated old connector users control their ANS names volt address or avatars or anything so you can see the last blocks are indexed last transactions last Cross images messages so right now there is no last crochet meshes in this uh notes so you can't you can't see any message let's go to the this block it is a block that's indexes with a height 54 and this is the block ID and if there's any transaction in this block you can see it right here so right now I'm clicking this transaction and I open the transaction so you can see the transaction ID you can see from address to address value and guest details and if there's any transition that you can see on here so let's go to the account page I click this from address you can see the address right here you can see the balance you can see the nodes and you can see the old transactions that this address is made so let's continue with the slides I explained this and also CLI build with the ax for for next steps we need to measure database architectures for built-in subject actions because they perform differently from others databases so we need a better database architecture and right now we are refreshing our front end to fetch the data but we need to Auto fetch the front end and maybe we need to add gray eye to top of this CLI tool to make improved developer experience and of course we need to allow users to customize this team all these colors editing for subnet creators so basically why we are using table length and severon I'm explaining going to that because the peer-to-peer transactions the payment platforms using these explorers and if we can use all decentralizers if you can create all the centralized platform we can illuminate the frauding or Nissan's understanding by users so because the payment platforms and peer-to-peer translations relay on these explorers so thanks for listening to me this is and my partner is all for my college you can find this on yourself thanks amazing well thank you so much for making such a cool utility for others who now kind of Leverage subnets even more and uh this is great hopefully you get to do all the feature features that you just talked about congrats foreign with that we are ready for our ninth and last finalist demo for today and without further Ado I'd like to bring on Pablo to talk about D5 kicks welcome hi everyone uh well I'm Pablo Maldonado and today I'm presenting my project D5 Geeks uh D5 kicks is a data dial that democratizes defy data aggregation when we talk about defy data aggregation probably the first example that comes to mind is the phylama similar aggregators offering sites like tvl protocol rankings yield farming and more enabling us to evaluate the state of defy the problem with such projects is their lack of true decentralization as the approval and calculation of information ultimately rely on their team if I kicks solves this problem by offering a fully decentralized transparent and Community governed if I data aggregate at the entry point the front end allows anyone to propose a new adapter a JavaScript code piece calculating project tvl at a specific time and continuously generating TDI TDL over time next any kick or Bitcoin token holder can vote of chain on the adapter to approve it or not the votes are time lock encrypted using unbiased voting when voting period ends anyone can execute the resolution requesting a back allow job through lilypad to Aggregate and decrypt the off-chain votes calculating the resolution and the rewards and Publishing everything on chain efficiently in a miracle tree root once the adapter is approved data collection begins through Elite action ensuring compliance with the adapter code and securely generating and storing the data in a decentralized and trustworthy maneer within ceramic stream finally the data can be visualized in the dashboard so I will first start by proposing a new adapter to add my project to defy case I will use this sample code that just returns a random number based on the latest block number of the chain I will confirm this transaction and behind the scenes I am first submitting my code to ipss and then the CID is submitted to the governor contract to start a vote now I can go to the voting page and once it loads we can already see some existing adapters here in different states as a voter I need to evaluate whether an adapter should be added or not to the protocol by checking the code and any other pre-existing rules I will just go ahead and vote for this one to speed up things and I'm signing this message where I vote for so during the voting process as I told before my well this time log encrypted and stored of chain ensuring a guest list and unbiased fault and once a vote is approved anyone can request a resolution to the smart contract and this resolution triggers a back allow job that computes of chain the resolution together with the reworks and then finally publish everything on chain so once an adapter is approved the data collection is handled by lead actions configured to guarantee compliance with Covenant spots and in the end the data is produced in a decentralized and Democratic way that's it thank you for your time and your attention thank you so much Pablo this is such a nice way to keep a lot of the Integrity issues that we face right now in check and super extendable this can work for anything so you got not just uh a D5 llama equivalent but you basically got a data doc so this is well thank

prize you should in a minute reflect on your profile and you will be able to see what price you want on directly your showcase probably if you're locked into your hacker dashboard you'll also see what prizes you want and I immediately be able to celebrate all the amazing things that you've achieved on top of all that don't worry if you're not watching this video live you can also see this thing we'll be notifying every team uh via email about all the prices you'd want and confirming everything before we move forward so a quick note on price delivery is as follows we are announcing all the prizes as things are tentative because we've only had 48 hours to go through all these things with our partners and we are going to be doing a lot more diligence before we release the prices which means that all of them will be released on the 21st of July and that gives us the next couple of weeks to go through everything make sure that everybody's source code was correct we may want to make sure nobody cheated we're gonna make sure that nobody worked on their projects before and that's only then we will lock in all the actual winners so that also means that everything that you've heard so far is tentative and now final which means that if some team is disqualified we will find a way to replace them uh with the help of our partners to pick another winner or if somebody was part of the pool price category and they removed or somebody's added then the average amounts that you received for a pull prize will also change accordingly so keep that in mind and that's just a notice and the other thing is all the prizes that are not delivered by the protocol Labs which is the ipfs and Falcon prize will be delivered by 8th Global but iPad physical popcorn prizes specifically will be delivered by protocol lab so you'll be getting two emails from both of the the organizations telling you what the next steps are and eat Global will not be delivering the ipfs and the Falcon specific prices so you'll be hearing separately with a separate process to get the next steps so you'll get that email very soon as well and shortly after everything is finalized and everything is reviewed we'll be releasing all the prizes to all of you directly now I also want to make sure we talk about what comes next we talked about all the prizes we saw some nine amazing finalists and the goal here is to talk about and really make sure we highlight how do you actually continue to keep on building uh hackathons are meant to be a quick way for you to help prototype something validate an idea or even see if approval concept is something that goes really well and we want to do something to make sure that you will have the support here so there's a lot of support especially in this ecosystem to get the next help and steps going for your project there's a lot of accelerators that are available we'll talk about how how you can kind of get all these things there's a lot of other hackathons that we're hosting in person online that you can join globally and sort of get to learn more about this ecosystem you can also join the pl Launchpad to get directly to the right support you need to actually Fast Track and and launch your project and make this more than just a acaban project and also if you are coming to Paris in a few weeks to either attending Cc or Global Paris there's also a lot of other events going ecosystem especially Phil Paris where you can actually come and learn about everybody else in this community and showcase and get the right right out so these are just the four quick things that you can do as immediately next if you want to build your project more but I also want to take on a second to kind of actually introduce somebody special here uh Juan Bane to uh to kind of take a few minutes and share what is it that you can do here from Rio Ranch to actually turn this project into a startup um this is something that we've done in the past and is an amazing talk that I'd love for him to kind of talk about again so without further Ado let's welcome on to actually tell us about what it means to take something from an idea to something that all of us can use every day on welcome hey thank you so much uh and super honor to be here uh really it's been awesome to follow along with uh everything happening around across hackerfest uh uh it's great to be in this in this final moment um I just want to talk briefly about uh what it takes to start a setup in this uh broader ecosystem and some of the you know kind of a quick overview of like different kinds of resources available to you that you know you'll share in more detail um uh about later uh and so I'm gonna share my screen briefly uh let me know this you can see that one second all right guys yeah hurry up awesome so uh it's really exciting to see uh and this might be another screenshot so there might be yeah there might be some genius here but it's really awesome to see so many um startups that uh actually started in uh through either hacking fast or other each Global um hackathons not coming back to uh actually sponsor prices and uh with really strong Dev tools and so on um there might be other a whole range of other groups that you've gone to know over over the month um but it's really a testament to uh the entire flow of how hackers get used to new technologies um build new products get new ideas and then some of those end up turning into um really successful uh projects and really successful startups um so uh I want to kind of go through the differing stages that it that you know startups uh are kind of grow from and not all sort of paths are are you look like this um startups in general are tend to be these uh kinds of entities and organizations that are um uh unconventional they tend to push uh different they push their own paths the node two startups are exactly the same uh but there tend to be some kind of common similarities across many of them and some trajectories that that um that have worked well for for a lot of teams and so uh that's kind of what I what I want to talk about today so you know the the kind of startup Journey starts initially with the planning team uh learning a ton about the world and so this could be through through uh schools or jobs through kind of reading online um through participating in different kinds of programs so there's an enormous amount of learning that goes um into uh the the building the skill sets and and learning rate um and knowledge knowledge Gathering positions skills and um uh just kind of everything that makes you you um and puts you in the right position to be able to notice problems and be able to have the skill sets required to uh to build something so the good news here is like all of you have been preparing for this for like your whole life since you were uh babies you were just growing uh you were already kind of learning an enormous amount about the world to to be able to kind of uh solve problems um kind of the the what I think is like a really important first base step that a lot of um uh groups take is so don't start experimenting with ideas um and that that experimentation is partly thinking about some problem space partly thinking about potential products that could be uh built around the uh solving that problem part understanding the problem in depth like really figuring out why the problem exists why it hasn't been assaulted already why other groups um haven't haven't uh sold them yet um and so on and a huge key component of that experimentation is actually trying to build products end to end and this is where hackathons uh offered and no a real tremendous opportunity for for everybody to keep refining that and um it's not every uh it's up just got one hacker that you can think of this as uh using multiple hackathons over time to keep having multiple experimentation shots uh to be able to try build try understanding some problem space try building a solution try building a product fully end to end um to then kind of see whether it has uh potential to see whether it has sexy whether you want to take it on uh in kind of in a bigger way um and so I really see kind of the the uh hackathon stage is kind of a really important experimentation Loop um whether it's kind of the current project that you just built that you feel super excited about taking on and turning into a startup or whether it's a feature project that you do through a hackathon hackathons give you this really really great um experimental Loop where you know you you really have to come up with a product ideas design the whole thing end to end um the deadline of the hackathon itself forces you to kind of pull it to pull the whole thing together in kind of a short time frame it gives you enough time to go in depth into one um range of uh uh some parts of the product and actually solve some hard problems uh there you know kind of um and also even short hackathons like a week at hackathon you can get like that the you can really test an idea um even in kind of a very short uh short hackathon where you um are just kind of plugging a lot of pieces together or kind of seeing if some concept uh would work um my favorite uh I I think are like a three to four week um hackathon speakers I think those give teams enough time and space to actually solve like heart problems and and so and get the whole product um gonna build end-to-end fully working and so on so like that that and having the the um uh requirement of showcasing and demoing and presenting the hack um also stress uh uh trains a lot of your skills in terms of being able to articulate what this thing is uh telling other people about um about it uh describing the problem that you're solving describing the solution space that you're exploring um and so it really kind of uh forces you to to understand that problem well enough and how to sell the product and how to sell the idea um and then what concern comes after that is that a lot of people as they encounter your idea and encounter your um uh your your demo and so on it will then start flowing feedback back to you uh some people will try it some people will um like if some people won't um you know new products you know primarily just get you know tons of negative feedback because you know new products tend to be very very early very rough and so on so uh that's totally fine and totally good like um that's kind of how new products are are born um but that feedback is crucial and essential in giving you kind of a more understanding about the problem more understanding about the clients and and what they would want out of out of that product and so really hackathon so this great moment to be able to kind of experiment with all this that's sort of like what comes after that is that you ask you whether it's kind of again this project that you have uh with you now or approach in the future that you um build on a future hackathon or or even a count of one you're on um you can then start connecting that to um uh other uh uh either programs or or if the product is ready enough you can like launch it and see if um people start using it and so on um and so for this whole set of resources and tools kind of after the kind of very early phase of building a product that can be useful uh and you kind of jump into this moment of kind of early validation of whether or not this idea has strong a strong potential so this face is really about kind of uh you you have a an idea formed up about a potential problem space you have an idea formed up about what the potential solution would be you have a um a working component or or a working demo or or even a working product sometimes um and you're kind of validating whether or not that product is going to work in the market and it's going to work with a set of clients and abusers and so on and they sort of like try to describe this face is kind of having like a minimum product it's not yet viable you're still you're kind of figuring out what are the the details about it that could make it viable um and in this period it's it um it's a lot about kind of positioning of a product really figuring out what are the key features that would really matter to the to the end users what what must exist in this um for this product to be successful and and so it's a lot about learning so so you're trying to build things and trying to put them in front of people and trying to to get insights from them to inform what what will produce an actual viable product um and many times a lot of the projects here kind of actually find out that like hey this idea won't be viable uh in this fight you know most most startups um uh or most projects don't don't make it into a big a big thing um it's good to kind of even that learning is a really useful thing that lets you kind of um move on to to the next idea or something like that but they set up early validation phase is really key that helps you um figure out whether the product is is going to work in in law firm or um how it must be shaped in order to work right so you might get a bunch of insights and learnings there that that tune the kinds of things that are that are um the product has to have in order to be successful so that kind of feedback cycle um the other Gathering feedback from from users analyzing the feedback acting on those insights um refining the product over time and so on is really key and in this space I would strongly encourage you to like just take an enormous amount of shortcuts just you're trying to get the the shape of the product right to be successful and you're trying to get information about what is going to make it viable you're not trying to build a full solution that works for everything kind of like the common mistake that I tend to see a lot of teams and a lot of startups make is that um the thing that kind of building the first source of the product requires building in full and in detail like every single possible thing that um that that uh that product will require in the long term and in reality you can start a very different way which is kind of you get enough of it working uh just to show like the very poor um functionality like the very core value proposition to to the end user and focus on that and kind of driving that as a product and seeing if that is going to work in the market and so this this is this kind of approach can point to you like what what is what is a potential viable product and in this um area uh here's where kind of graphic I'll make sure really useful so uh down before that when you're learning um you either are in school or you have some other job or or you're uh on your own and you not yet funded through hackathons you start potentially having the opportunity to start winning some prizes to help fund your team and this kind of early validation period you now especially we're going to be working on this um full time then you start meeting um some way of sustaining the project and sustaining the the product and so on sometimes this might be too early for accelerators sometimes accelerates are really good for this uh this moment uh this is where I think like micrograss are extremely useful there's a number of programs that that do these kinds of prices and these kinds of Brands um that can be extremely helpful for teams here that kind of like want to get some early validation and figure out what about uh product is going to work on kind of the next step after that is once you kind of have a sense of what will actually make a minimum viable product even if you haven't fully been able to build it yet or deliver it uh you have a lot more insight into what will um be a viable product that that I think is like the right moment to fully kind of like start the startup uh so to speak and this is where accelerated programs are extremely useful they can help guide you uh in terms of um how how to work how to start us over the first place like what does that mean in terms of incorporating entities what does that mean in terms of um actually being able to kind of um employ people what does that mean in terms of getting racing funding and and so on so this is kind of like where you go from hey you have an idea for a minimum viable product to a building that minimal bio product and testing it out in the market and starting to get uh strong users and be creating the organism the structure of the entity and so on that is going to be able to build that product over time that's going to make it sustainable so that entity is uh you know in May times this could be a company this could be a foundation this could be a Network it could be there are many different kinds of um this could also be an open source project sometimes it doesn't follow the the the path of a of a company or something like that um the the point though is that you need some kind of organizational structure to to organize the people that are going to be working on on producing this this minimal part uh and there's a ton of accelerators in in in in the network that are um that are there uh for you uh to be able to apply to and and work with and and so on uh that could be could be helpful uh and then kind of after the accelerator programs once you uh are working at that minimal product once you've kind of uh validated it with actually uses on actual customers and so on you're starting to get like traction on that mvp and you're starting to get cycles of users and in that area is when you kind of start going from an early potential product into now a product of starting to get users and starting to get clients and um is becoming um a thing that people can depend on um you you go from kind of um having an MVP like the minimum vital product into starting to get product Market fit which is kind of the key thing that you need for for kind of scaling scaling a use of a product product Market Fitness is when a product um has the required features and uh price points and distribution and so on to be kind of understood by the broader Market especially the broader Market starts selecting that product and using it at larger scale and so that kind of transition point just goes from hey you have an idea that you're contesting out and trying to tell the world to once you start achieving product Market fit and the world starts finding out about your product and and if the product fits the requirements of the market um then you get this transition that happens with suddenly the growth accelerates and and you get kind of like this this big scale up and you just be a product Market fit isn't like a binary thing where like whether you don't have it or you have it it's more of a spectrum or Continuum and it really applies to the shape of the product at the time um and so you can think of a very large long-term product that's being built in a series of like successfully larger versions of the product um you know one example here is like you can think of social networks where you know many social networks started by um first creating a very lightweight social network tuned for a specific market and kind of famously this might be like um Facebook starting with with um with universities or something like that or or um uh a a messenger app that like starts with just one-on-one DMS and then over time you know once you get kind of like that mvp working well enough and you get some early product Market fit and you get a number of users then you start kind of expanding the product into kind of like the next mvpo book a different size where you suddenly start adding um you know another range of features or you sort of start scaling scaling what that product means and each of those kind of sequential um ranges of the product or the sequential levels of the product has its own notion of product Market data whether or not like the feature set is is the right fit for for the market and so on and in this point in time is kind of where you potentially start getting early um early indication of whether the business model is going to work um so uh there are some kinds of startups that defer the monetization onto it much later and those tend to create like warp business models in some cases this is kind of where a lot of social networks it might be kind of went wrong or they sort of turn into into primarily advertising driven businesses uh if you can kind of figure out the sustainability path for a product very early on you can figure out a good modernization path that aligns the incentives of the users with the product Builders and the participants so on and makes it a very good sustainable um uh kind of regenerative structure like that that can be a much much better way so in this period when you know in accelerator stages and early tractions as you're kind of starting to raise funding or um this is going to be a great moment to then really figure out what the what the business model should be um how to structure monetization how to how to make the whole product sustainable because at the end of the day a profit requires um a whole range of uh people building that product uh refining it over time improving it over time and all of that costs significant amount of amount of money and resources so creating a structure that is sustainable that has a strong Revenue flow is critical to to making sure that products serve their customers really well out and are able to scale so you kind of want to figure out that out and sort of get it right you might have inklings of what the right business model is very early on but you should be ready to kind of experiment with that along the way change it um to kind of really figure out what makes us in the market sometimes Innovations are about figuring out the right business model to support a product uh the right way and and there are many products out there that haven't quite actually figured out like the right way to create a business as well aligned with with their users um in this period kind of like after our accelerators this is kind of like the pre-seed sort of range this used to be called seed many many years ago but you kind of get this Behavior where like seed of series a and seriously and like all those terms about uh fundraising rounds just gotta keep increasing in scale and people tend to invent like new works that come before so you know back in the day seed funding might have been like you know a thousand dollars or something like that these days like that's you know pre-seed is kind of like you know sub a million dollars or something like that and then see it starts looking into into millions and this area is great for say angel investors um and early you know uh small BC funds and so on you're not quite yet ready for for like the larger scale larger scale we see that kind of comes in in the later stage once you have a a sense of strong product Market fail and a strong business model and you have a lot of medications like this has got to be like a highly scalable thing um then some startups versus the path of like they're good for BC um in terms of like the potential return multiples and the and the scale of business and and so on um and then at that point kind of uh is the right time to kind of think about um whether or not this is there should be a VC funded um effort effort or not and and so this kind of like the pathway there's of course many more stages that come after that like see this kind of it many people regard to see it as just like the beginning of the of the journey there's you know many more years and many more work um ahead after this uh but this is a kind of like giving an inside view here because for you at this stage or kind of where you are these are the stages sort of will matter to you over the next few months uh or or over the next year or two um and the and these are the the ones that are that will be will be useful to you um kind of later on uh once the company starts growing then you know there's many more stages there and think of most is kind of the traditional um you know seed series a series B and so on where they're different kind of um uh gates in terms of the scale of the business the the um the strength of the the product the strength of the revenue and and all that kind of stuff um and so across all of these stages there are many different kinds of resources uh that can be helpful to you many different scales of funding um we've tried uh through the field Network to create um so to work with a lot of Partners and create solutions for people going across these stages um and so you know things from Grants at the right times accelerator programs uh investor Network and so on you'll hear about uh more detail later on but I'll just I'll just slash out um a couple uh in a kind of like a high level high level way uh you can think of appeal Network being an organ a kind of network of organizations that has tried to help a lot of startup builders start their startups uh Access Capital um find talent to help staff their projects um get access to knowledge and get access to services that can help them grow I started to be able to create this kind of easier and faster and better way to to do stronger r d especially in like deep technical domains that are that tend to be underfunded by uh by traditional VC and uh and so we can be helpful like definitely um you know reach out and use the the resources of the network um everything from kind of uh microgrants um the accelerator programs that have been like you know tremendously successful for so many teams um the broader investor Network there's many thousands of investors and in in the broader PL Network um and even things like the ovc which are kind of a program that that help connect startups that are um starting their fundraising rounds to a whole range of investors so to try and accelerate the fundraising uh period and and then of course um many kind of uh service providers for many kinds of uh uh problem spaces so things like Legal Services people Services accounting finance and so on and then these are of course like will be useful like once you get you know close the seat stage and so on and you start growing uh but so that's more tuned for for those groups uh but that's it uh thank you uh so much for the time uh really excited about uh everything that everybody has been working on uh really excited for for the um this latest version of hack FS hacking this is super near idea uh to our heart is the first hackathon that we started working on with youth Global uh it's been so awesome to see the um success over time in the last few years of the program uh it's been so inspiring to me personally to see so many people come through pack fs and get to start learning about these systems trying out a bunch of ideas sometimes those projects themselves from Hackett best turn into startups themselves and grew and now we're back here uh sponsoring hack Fs in other cases those teams went on to build other projects through other hackathons and all sort of a different different way so it's just really awesome to to be part of this and thank you so much talk to you been an incredible last four years so thanks for kind of giving
