## **🏆 $100,000 Total Prize Pool**
We're challenging the sharpest developers to push the boundaries of Web3 data utilization using the high-speed, adaptable **Liquify Indexer API**.
The $100,000 total prize pool will be distributed among the winners across three distinct categories, designed to maximize infrastructure support for future development.
### **Prize Structure**
- **Cash Prize:** Each category winner will receive **$1,000 - $5,000 USD** in cash.
- **Infrastructure Credits:** The remainder of the prize pool will be awarded as **Liquify RPC and Indexing Credits**, providing the winners with the critical infrastructure necessary to scale their projects.
## **🛠️ The Challenges (3 Winning Categories)**
Participants must build a production-ready application that leverages the Liquify Indexer API’s ability to index custom smart contracts instantly and decode data into a database-ready format.
### **Challenge 1: Advanced Wallet Analysis Tool**
**Goal:** Create a tool that rivals institutional-grade platforms (like Arkham or Dune) for deep, multi-wallet tracking.
**Focus:** Utilizing the API's custom indexing to track esoteric or newly launched contract interactions, providing unique alpha for users.
### **Challenge 2: Next-Gen Trading Tool with x402 Integration**
**Goal:** Develop a trading dashboard or bot that integrates real-time index data with a trading execution layer.
**Focus:** **MANDATORY:** Must include live integration with the **x402** protocol/exchange (using its ABIs and smart contracts for indexing) to inform trading decisions instantly.
### **Challenge 3: Seamless DeFi Tax Reporting Tool**
**Goal:** Build a robust, multi-chain/multi-contract application that simplifies the generation of regulatory-compliant tax reports for complex DeFi activities.
**Focus:** Demonstrate the API's ability to index and structure historical data from complex protocols (Lending, Yield Aggregators, AMMs) required for accurate financial reconciliation.
## **💡 Why Build with Liquify?**
The Liquify Indexer API removes the core headache of Web3 development: **data synchronization delays.**
Our unique architecture allows you to index a single, individual smart contract instantly, eliminating the need to re-sync entire databases common with legacy indexers. This unparalleled speed and customization mean you can focus 100% on building innovative user features.
**Liquify's Core Advantage:** Faster indexing, infinitely adaptable to any smart contract your project needs.
