Milestone 3 Proposal: Polkadot x EasyA Hackathons at Harvard and in London (#60DaysOfPolkadot)
As an executive summary, we have now successfully achieved Milestone 3 (holding the two in-person Polkadot hackathons in the US and UK) including surpassing our KPIs! As outlined in our Milestone 1 and 2 report, by the end of those two milestones we had collected key feedback from developers and parachain/project teams, and created the challenges to get developers building on them in the EasyA app! In this milestone, we held two spectacular hackathons at Harvard University (in Boston, USA) and in London (UK) which attracted top developers both from within the Polkadot ecosystem and beyond, with Web3 enthusiasts keen to learn more about Polkadot attending and hacking.
Current Progress and Comments:
The continuation of the work of Easy A in Harvard and London counted with the participation of members from Moonbeam, Gear and Astar which supported the interests of several participants looking to integrate with Easy A an its app. It’s worth noticing that Easy A had already its referendum 101 rejected (https://polkadot.polkassembly.io/referenda/101) mainly because of the cost an lack of alternative funding options for this type of massive proposals which only seek funds back retroactively. The main accounts that tipped the balance to the other side were 16DG aka Giotto and 1649c...yv who voted for this proposal.
