We're excited to have you participate in the Blockchain track at Hack the Mountains 2.0 and build innovative projects with cutting edge technology!
With Blockchain being the most sought-after skill by employers, this is an excellent opportunity for you to learn the basics and get your hands dirty!
This document is meant to serve as a guide to setting up and building with NEO- an easy to use and developer friendly blockchain with plenty of tutorials and walkthroughs for you to learn!
Before we get started, let's get some basics right:
Neo is a globally supported blockchain platform for smart contract development. The platform has two native tokens: NEO and GAS. NEO is a token which entitles a holder to vote on the decision making nodes on the platform. There is a total supply of 100 Million NEO. The second token, GAS is distributed to NEO holders through claims of realized GAS generation which are calculated by integrating an address' NEO holdings over the blocks. GAS is distributed to user when they execute a transaction on the network.

Any project, regardless of the use-case or industry, as long as it has been built with Neo N3 technology
There are no restrictions on the type of project you can submit in the Neo Frontier Hackathon, as long as it uses Neo N3 technology. You may choose to explore DeFi solutions such as liquidity pools, AMMs, flash loans, or stablecoin protocols. Perhaps you’re interested in NFT technology in areas such as gaming, content licensing, or fractional ownership or maybe your speciality lies in layer2 protocols, scalability, privacy, or DAO technologies.
