On-chain signature verification
Prize Bounty

82,750 CSPR (approx. 10,000 USDT) for each of the top 6 various advanced submissions

Challenge Description

This challenge focuses on creating the equivalent of ECrecover for the Casper blockchain. The main requirement is to compute the key that produced a signature and to provide the mathematical proof.

Winning contributors may receive funding or grants to continue this work beyond the hackathon.

Submission Requirements

Create a GitHub repository for your project, then submit it using the Gitcoin UI.

All bounty submissions must be received no later than 11:59 PM EDT on October 11th, 2021, or earlier.

Judging Criteria

This entry will be judged based on the following:

  • Mathematical accuracy
  • Clear and thorough technical documentation
  • Future plans for development and application

The submission will be compared to other advanced submissions in the non-Defi space.

Winner Announcement Date

Projects will be evaluated within 2 weeks of the hackathon ending or earlier when possible. Winners will be announced the week of October 25th, and the payout will occur after the winners are announced.

Payment details

Make sure you input your OWN, NON-custodial CSPR wallet to be sure to receive payouts.
If CSPR cannot be accepted in certain jurisdictions, winners will receive the equivalent amount in USDT. Gitcoin establishes the conversion rate.
