About the Hackathon

ABOUT REQUEST NETWORK

Request Network, an EVM-compatible infrastructure protocol, is designed to cater to various Web3 financial applications, including invoicing, payments, accounting, and under-collateralized loans. It enhances blockchain transactions by appending extra data and facilitating compliance, reconciliation, and traceability. The infrastructure empowers users to maintain ownership of their financial data, with the flexibility to transfer and selectively share it. Learn more from our documentation.
