​Cavemen Gather Around the Fire to Bring Blockchain to the Next Level 🌟

​Join us at Moda Palas on Tuesday, January 25th, for the Celestia Mammothon Idea Circles | Istanbul event! 🚀 This time, we’re not just brainstorming—we’re diving deeper. Together with cryptographers and developers, we’ll focus on structuring and designing architectures for select ideas from the Mammothon Project Ideas list.

​We’ll be working on five out of the 29 ideas presented for the Celestia Mammothon Hackathon, happening from February 1–28. Let’s take these ideas from concept to solid architecture, turning potential into action! 😄

​What is Celestia?

​Celestia is a modular blockchain network designed to provide scalable and decentralized data availability. By separating the consensus and data availability layers, Celestia empowers customized blockchains (rollups) to deploy independently, enhancing scalability, flexibility, and developer efficiency.

​What is the Celestia Mammothon Hackathon?

​A global hackathon organized by Encode and the Celestia Foundation, bringing visionary developers and creators together to build powerful, unstoppable applications on modular blockchain technology. 💡 With a $250,000 Prize Pool, the hackathon is an opportunity to shape the future of blockchain.

​Hackathon Tracks 🛠️

• ​Build Unstoppable Apps: Create expressive on-chain apps that surpass Web2 capabilities, focusing on mobile-first approaches and innovations like web proofs. 📱

• ​Craft On-Chain Worlds: Utilize abundant blockspace to design persistent on-chain worlds, unique mechanics, and monetizable casual games. 🎮

• ​Upgrade the Internet: Replace centralized systems with user-verifiable zk compute and advanced primitives like Prism. 🌐
