Klaytn is a public, enterprise-grade and EVM-equivalent blockchain focused on the metaverse, gamefi, and the creator economy. Officially launched in June 2019, it is the dominant blockchain platform in South Korea and is now undergoing global business expansion from its international base in Singapore, led by the Klaytn Foundation.

These business expansion activities are supported by the Klaytn Growth Fund, which aims to grow the ecosystem of companies built on Klaytn. The fund is managed and disbursed by Klaytn Foundation, a non-profit organization to accelerate global adoption and ecosystem maturity on Klaytn.

Since unveiling its metaverse roadmap in early 2022, the Ethereum-equivalent L1 chain has seen many well-known companies come onboard its metaverse—including game developer and publishing powerhouses: Netmarble and Neowiz. It recently ramped up efforts to lay the foundation for the metaverse and to expand use cases.

Submissions will be judged by Klaytn representatives and other hackathon judges based on their technical merits as well as the likelihood of implementation.

In general, submissions are graded on a 1-5 scale in each of the following categories:

• Originality: Does the template incorporate something entirely novel, or at least take a fresh approach to an existing problem?
• Execution: Is the template usable in its current state? Is the user experience smooth? Does everything appear to work? Is it well designed?
• Usefulness: Is the idea practical? Is it something people would actually use?
• Learning: Did the individual or team stretch themselves and push the boundaries of learning in this space?

While all projects are technically eligible for the pool prize, Klaytn judges will have the final say on which projects qualify.
