To celebrate the launch of our experimental Status API, and to help us find bugs and receive valuable feedback from developers, we're hosting a week-long virtual Hackathon, with $25,000 in prizes to be won. It’s completely free to enter, and everyone is welcome to participate, wherever you may live.
A total prize pool of US$25,000 is up for grabs, and will be paid out in ether (ETH).
Status is an open source messaging platform and mobile browser to interact with decentralized applications that run on the Ethereum Network.
With Ethereum, we have a path towards a more open, censorship-resistant internet, that puts users control of their own data. For the first time ever, we can create real trustless, permissionless and decentralized systems with fair access.
Built entirely on peer-to-peer technologies, Status provides not only a medium for free trade and communication, but a window to access the decentralized world of Ethereum.
Note: Most web-DApps are compatible with all major clients: Mist, MetaMask, Parity and Status. With the Ethereum JavaScript API, web3.js, on the front-end, the idea is that once you have developed your DApp for desktop, you can deploy it on mobile with Status. Develop once, run everywhere.
Check out our resources and familiarize yourself with our documentation.
Status API DocumentationStatus is both a Web 3.0 browser, and a messaging platform. To be eligible for prizes, whatever it is you build, just needs to work inside of Status.
