If the participant's website is private, the project must include login credentials in its testing instructions. - In the README: detail why your team went with the approaches they did - In the README: experience building on Othentic **Multiple Submissions:** - Entrants are allowed to submit more than one submission. However, each submission must be unique and substantially different from the others. **Submission Materials:** - All submission materials must be in English, including the demonstration video, text description, and testing instructions, as well as any other materials submitted. **Disclosure:** - Projects submitted to other hackathons or challenges need to be disclosed in the submission or README of the project. - The judging panel will evaluate project submissions based on how the team implements their features and the uniqueness of the application. # **📄 Rules** 1. Don’t start coding your project before the hackathon officially starts. You can obviously start researching or learning how to use the Othentic Stack, but you must not start coding the project you intend to submit. 2. If you want to use pre-existing code (e.g. from a prior project you’ve made) you must notify us first in writing, with a detailed explanation of which parts you’ll be re-using. You are, of course, allowed to fork projects (rather than reinventing the wheel). However, your hackathon submission will be judged solely on the merits of what you have achieved during the time of the hackathon itself. If during or after the event, we find that you failed to disclose that you used a pre-existing code, you will be subject to disqualification. 3. Your project must remain open source and available on the Github repo you submit. # **🌐 Social Links** - Website: [www.sharedsecurityalliance.org](http://www.sharedsecurityalliance.org/) - Twitter: [@shared_security](http://x.com/shared_security) - Contact: hi@othentic.xyz # About ## Our Organization ### Purpose The Shared Security Alliance is a member-based organization supporting developer adoption of shared security to improve the decentralized Web through education and advocacy. ### EthCC Hackathon The Shared Security Hackathon is a three-day in-person hackathon taking place July 6-8 at ETHCC for teams building shared security innovations - the final day will feature a pitch/demo day during the symposium.
