The two-day event will start in the morning of Thursday, October 18, and will end in the afternoon of the next day. Programming teams are invited to get creative, and design a truly useful blockchain application from scratch.
There is $5,000 to be won by three winning teams. The first prize is $3,000 and the chance to pitch an idea to Joseph Lubin, co-founder of Ethereum and head of ConsenSys (that also held an event in Tel Aviv earlier this year).

What will the competitors be designing exactly?
The applications can be in any subject – games, UI/UX, market prediction, decentralised autonomous organisations, supply chains, smart contracts, financial technology – whatever you can think of.
The competition judges are Omri Cohen of Bancor, and Or Wilder of Consensys.
