2. Log in to hackerlink.io and click on CSC Global Hackathon Grants Round 1 to apply (new users need to register an account first).

3. To avoid fake projects participating in the event and sharing the prize pool, please contact DoraHacks on Telegram (@hackerlinkofficial) to verify the authenticity of the project.

4. During the hackathon, we will conduct multiple rounds of project demos. Projects uploaded earlier will gain more attention and exposure and attract more votes and funding opportunities.

5. After the Grant Round, a 72-hour Grace Period is held to prevent Sybil-attacks and announce the voting results. During the period, project teams need to contact HackerLink to confirm the authenticity of each project. Upon completion, the donation from the community and the sponsor’s prize pool distributed can be withdrawn.

Prize Pool Constitution

Every vote will make a difference to the distribution of the final funding. And the award for the applied project consists of three parts:

1. Individual donation: the community users will vote for the Hacker projects they are interested in and consider as potential. There is no limit to the number of votes, and the priize will be donated to the voted project after the event.

2. $100,000 initial prize pool: the initial prize pool will be distributed to each project according to the popularity of the project.

3. $200,000 ballot bonus pool: the ballot bonus pool will be distributed to each project according to the judges’ votes.
