Build practical solutions, applicable to the challenges experienced by those around us.

Solutions that can be turned into the products of society. Now.
We're all tired of seeing infrastructure being unused, unattractive to the average person. Your parents likely don't care about PGP or end-to-end encryption. Somehow, they use derivative technology every day.

Build for your environment to reap the fruits of the trees we plant today. Let the software you design, pitch, or build envision the true cypherpunk mentality to build practicalness in today's society.

A technologic agnostic environment where it matters what you build. Not how you build it.

Unity

We believe in unity at times of political separation. Privacy in web3 requires an interdisciplinary push engaging peers from developers to event producers.

W3PN_Hacks unites experienced Ethereum hackathon winners, OG hackers with 20 years of experience, internet surveillance experts, human rights organisations, social scientists, designers, etc. - everyone is welcome to develop a common language of Practical Privacy.

Practical knowledge from people who delivered &/are working on privacy-preserving apps [first batch of shapers]

Principles

  • Social layer - be open to people with different backgrounds, skill sets, geos, genders, nationalities, etc. Create a collaborative environment for plurality to thrive.

  • Real-world applications - focus on the stories that need privacy now. Real, alive, practical. Build the applications that can make a difference today.

  • Web2 + Web3 privacy - match the best of two worlds, so cultures will enrich each other.

Prepare yourself:

  • Read the "Cypherpunk Hacker Class 2.0"

  • Apply for the hackathon as a hacker and mentor our judge through the same form here.

  • Have a look at the tooling that can help you envision your idea.

Powered by practical tooling

Empowering devs on their journey to build resilient privacy dapps.
