Design

What hackathons are currently, mostly aren’t meant.

But looking forward, exactly who hackathons need more of and calling shots in the projects.

That piggy wallet is a great example, barely any dev, most stuff is hardcoded and the rest barely functioning.

Just need to put something on chain to show that metamask pop up for everyone to go wow.

And then do it for the cause like for argentinian kids.

Present figma prototype as a demo because going through the live app would be horrific.

So 2 different approaches and designers don’t belong in the first but are ruling in the second

My team was a great indication of it too - devs came up with an idea that wasn’t really impactful, done multiple hooks and chain integrations for the sake of winning bounties, ended up getting nothing 

What piggy wallet did, whatever chain they’d use on the back - they’d win it.

If I make enough money this summer I want to come to Singapore for the next hackathon and try this approach in action, get a dev for it and maybe even another designer and see where it takes us

Also already looking into ideas that can win the next one
