# **Welcome to the 'Fraxtal: Build on the Fractal' Hackathon!** Frax Finance, one of the most well-known DeFi protocols in the world, has just released their modular rollup [Fraxtal](frax.com). Frax is calling all hackers and builders to build 'anywhere on the fractal' by deploying innovative applications on Fraxtal mainnet, building L3s that settle on Fraxtal, and infrastructure for the chain. Developers will feel right at home to have a blank slate network to build on early, capture first-mover advantage, become one of the flagship applications on a chain that will be a blue-chip crypto powerhouse, and win millions in prizes at the same time. **This is the first and only chance for teams that want to be first-to-market to become the dominant protocol, infrastructure provider, or L3 on Fraxtal!** # Timeline | When | What | | -- | -- | | May 13th | Hackathon kick off <br>Submission period begins | | May 13th - July 5th | Submission Period | | July 5th EOD UTC | Submission Deadline | | July 6th - 13th | Review period | | July 17th | Finalists Demo (Livestream) | | July 22nd | Winners announced | # **Tracks** - **Fraxtal Mainnet Dapps** - Any applications/protocols that are deployed to Fraxtal mainnet with its token issued on Fraxtal. - **Fraxtal Offchain Apps** - Any consumer application, wallet, analytics platform, dev tooling, or infrastructure that is a primarily offchain product that supports Fraxtal as a primary main integration. - **Fraxtal L3s** - A blockchain or appchain that has its native L3 bridge to Fraxtal mainnet (can be deployed and ran by RaaS providers) which leverages L3 scalability to create new utility (ie fast DEX chains, AI chains, SocialFi etc). Additional incentives+prizes provided for Near DA usage for L3s. # Hackathon Ideas (not required but likely to do well in judging) - New and innovative perpetual protocols that leverage sFRAX yield as collateral. - Memecoin platforms such as pump.fun but for the Fraxtal ecosystem. - New veFXS lockers, veFXS LSDs, veFXS utility since there is no whitelist anymore to stake veFXS. - OP Superchain powered applications - Fixed Yield Tokenization Protocols Similar to Pendle and Hourglass - Restaking protocols that integrate FXS and any Frax Asset as base restaked assets, including veFXS as a restaked asset since veFXS can now be slashed. - Stablecoin payment rails/yield apps that integrate FRAX & sFRAX. - Frax Simplified Farming Front Ends/Mobile Apps, maximize FXTL, FXS, sFRAX, sfrxETH, FXB yields. - Fraxtal vault strategies that create delta-neutral positions & harvest yield for users similar to Yearn vaults. - FXB Fixed yield Protocols, FXB fixed yield indexing dapps - Issue tokenized real-world assets on Fraxtal -Create issuance platforms for new and existing RWA tokens to issue natively on Fraxtal mainnet (RWAs as a serve). - Frax Super Simple Saver App/Wallet - AI DeFi and onchain AI inference protocols - L3 Appchains - Work with leading RaaS providers to build L3s and appchains uniquely leveraging Frax Assets such as privacy optimized, high-throughput payment L3s for sending stablecoin payments anonymously. # **Resources** ## Fraxtal [Fraxtal](http://frax.com/) is a modular rollup by Frax Finance with fractal scaling tech. Fraxtal is part of the OP Superchain. Fraxtal is fully EVM compatible & has all of the dev tooling all blockchain engineers are familiar with in the EVM and L2 world. Fraxtal’s modular DA component allows for near-zero transaction fees making it consistently one of, if not the cheapest, rollups to use, deploy, and build on. Fraxtal is home of the Frax Finance ecosystem where all Frax Assets are natively issued, yield opportunities are plentiful, and the ideal and easiest place for DeFi devs to build deep liquidity & TVL. Essentially, Fraxtal is home to the Frax Decentralized Central Bank where partner applications can leverage endogenous yield, benefit from Frax protocol owned liquidity in their dapps, and take advantage of near-zero transaction fees for their applications. Fraxtal also has a [unique FXTL point distribution system](https://docs.frax.com/fraxtal/fraxtal-incentives/fraxtal-point-system) that awards popular smart contracts in near real-time called the Flox system. Any time users interact with a smart contract, that contract’s rank increases and it earns FXTL points based on the all time interactions and ranking of that contract. This makes Fraxtal one of the most lucrative places to deploy smart contracts to. - Fraxtal Builders Telegram Channel: https://t.me/+b9SvIR2_C3JmNDVh - Fraxtal Documentation (RPC endpoints, nodes, etc): https://docs.frax.com/fraxtal - Fraxscan Block Explorer by Etherscan: https://fraxscan.com/ - Frax Finance DeFi Documentation: https://docs.frax.finance/ - Add your project directly to the ecosystem page: https://www.frax.com/ecosystem - Frax Community overall Channel: [t.me/fraxfinance](http://t.me/fraxfinance) ## Tenderly Hello Fraxtal Hackers!
