The Likwid project in this hackathon focuses on liquidity management, providing users with efficient asset allocation tools; Stable Swap targets the slippage problem in stablecoin exchange and provides a solution for the multi-chain trading ecosystem. These two projects show the important trend of the DeFi track's transformation from technology-driven to user-friendly.
RWA: Bridging the future of traditional assets and blockchain
Today, as traditional assets gradually accept blockchain technology, the RWA track has attracted much attention. The participating project Asteroidx uses on-chain asset management tools to inject transparency into traditional financial products; Bnb3 explores innovative methods to map real assets to the chain, allowing more people to participate in the global asset circulation. They provide practical cases for the application of blockchain technology in the traditional financial field.
INO: Let NFT become a combination of tools and experience
NFT is no longer just a simple collectible, but is becoming a tool-type asset with more practical value. Tiptag.social combines NFT with social attributes to provide users with an innovative interactive model; HashKeyFun makes NFT closer to users' lives through entertainment experience. These projects illustrate the future potential of NFT: not only value storage, but also experience innovation.
Payment: Opening the gateway to blockchain commercialization
Payment scenarios are the key to large-scale application of blockchain technology. PolyFlow has created a payment system that is compatible with multiple chains, providing an efficient solution for cross-chain payments; Trusta focuses on payment security to ensure the transparency and credibility of transactions. Together, they present the future blueprint for blockchain payments.
Cultural inheritance: Let technology connect memory and the future
How can blockchain technology empower cultural protection? The Fufuture and Rwalt projects have explored new ways to digitally protect cultural heritage. Through on-chain storage and interactive design, these projects not only give traditional culture a new lease of life, but also give technology a deeper social value.
