Track 1: DeFi, CMST and NFT-Fi Use Cases (1st prize-USD 4k, 2nd prize -USD 2k)

Comdex invites developers to build and submit dApps that leverage Comdex’s on-chain modules to launch DeFi and CMST use cases on our testnet. The Comdex chain houses several modules which can be utilised in a plug-and-play fashion to build and deploy a large array of DeFi use cases. The Comdex chain hosts several modules, allowing for a plug-and-play approach to developing and deploying a wide range of DeFi use cases. CMST, an IBC-native overcollateralized stablecoin backed by interchain assets, is another area where developers are encouraged to build use cases that primarily feature CMST as the stable asset.

Additionally, the Comdex chain can support various NFT and NFT-Fi based use cases, where NFT assets can be utilized in DeFi primitives. Developers are further encouraged to design applications focused on integrating NFT finance use cases, where real-world assets may be represented as NFTs on chain.

Track 2: Gaming (1st prize-USD 4k, 2nd prize -USD 2k)

As the realms of DeFi and gaming converge, Comdex provides a robust infrastructure layer designed to facilitate the creation and deployment of Gaming and GameFi use cases. With Comdex’s chain infrastructure, developers can construct gaming applications that seamlessly integrate in-game assets into DeFi. The Comdex chain modules enable the development of a variety of gaming use cases, from player-vs-player games to sports and fantasy games, all featuring in-game NFT assets.

Track 3: Infrastructure & DAO tooling (1st prize-USD 4k, 2nd prize -USD 2k)

As Comdex expands its DeFi ecosystem, we invite you to participate in its growth by developing infrastructure and tools to support the next wave of builders and users. We encourage developers to contribute to the development of tooling for oracles or DAOs, and to create infrastructure that diversifies user onboarding methods into the ecosystem. Join us in advancing the Comdex ecosystem!

Track4: Misc (USD 2k)

In addition to the tracks mentioned above, a separate prize is reserved for exceptional products that may be built on the Comdex chain, beyond the tracks mentioned above.

All above projects will be eligible for CMDX grants of up to USD 100,000 by applying over here: https://bit.ly/3N6FXh7

Come join us at the Comdex Hackathon to explore and build the future of DeFi and discover new potential dApps. From derivatives to option vaults, gaming experiences, infrastructure and tooling to NFTs and metaverse it’s up to you to go beyond the visible eyes and play to build your heart out.

About Comdex

Comdex is an Interchain DeFi infrastructure layer to build applications to power DeFi in the Cosmos ecosystem and beyond by utilising on-chain modules of the prevailing primitives in the worlds of DeFi and Finance.

Comdex’s easy plug-and-play modules will enable developers to easily create their own customizable decentralized applications (dApps) within the Cosmos ecosystem.

The Comdex chain is a Tendermint-based, IBC-enabled, layer-1 blockchain built on top of the Cosmos SDK with CosmWasm-integration.

Comdex dApps live on chain, developed by the Comdex team.

  1. cSwap — a decentralized, IBC-enabled exchange built on the Comdex chain. It uses a hybrid approach, combining both traditional AMM-based liquidity pools alongside an order book-based system.
  2. Harbor Protocol — an interchain stablecoin protocol that enables minting of the CMST stablecoin using various interchain assets as collateral. $CMST is an over-collateralized stablecoin backed by Interchain assets
  3. Commodo — Interchain liquidity protocol for lending-borrowing, built using the Comdex infrastructure.
