The first intergalactic hackathon has officially ended. Seven remote pairs formed by GenLayer’s core contributors participated in the global online hackathon to showcase their skills and creativity. The goal was to create a functioning Intelligent Contract tackling a real-life problem.
After a day of hyperdrive, the results are in. Congratulations to all participants, especially the Infinite Improbability Engineers, who won the $1000 prize.
Let’s explore the projects that each team came up with.
Infinite Improbability Engineers - “When the odds of winning are one in a million, they make it happen twice."
The Infinite Improbability Engineers received a third of the votes to claim the top spot in the hackathon. Their problem solution is actually rooted in the real world, as passengers often have problems with delayed flights and insurance claims.
The Infinite Improbability Engineers tried to solve this issue by developing a fast flight insurance claims management system. Their Intelligent Contract solution was designed to automatically process insurance claims for delayed flights, integrating real-time flight tracking data.
GenLayer uniquely enables this protocol to automate insurance claims as it’s able to integrate and process the real-time flight tracking data onchain without oracles supplying this information but directly through LLMs.
The insurance claims system provides passengers with almost instant refund notifications, significantly reducing the claim processing time from the usual 7-10 days. The contract automates the entire insurance process, ensuring transparency, efficiency, and customer satisfaction. This project demonstrated the potential for improving customer experience while simultaneously displaying how Intelligent Contracts could revolutionize the insurance industry by fastening the claims process.

Deep Thought Coders - "Thinking so deep, even AI has trouble following"
Deep Thought Coders focused on solving a big problem in software architecture decision-making with their ADR (Architectural Decision Record) Validator. This Intelligent Contract automatically validates architectural decisions made by tech teams, leading to consistency with past decisions by having several AI models analyze the codebase and reach a consensus.
This solution is suitable in almost any market, where architectural consistency has to be stringent. The contract uses GenLayer’s multi-LLM consensus mechanism to check the consistency of ADR documents, detect contradictions, and provide rewards based on the quality of the ADR. It builds on GenLayer's complex decision-making capabilities.

The Digital Dolphins - Swimming through code like it's a sea of 1s and 0s.
The Digital Dolphins wanted to test the limits of constitutional AI DAOs with their project. The DAO focused on issuing bounties that were in line with the Constitution, as the Intelligent Contract allows DAO members to propose and vote on bounties. The protocol is able to reject proposals that don’t align with the Constitution automatically. All bounty proposals have to be in line with the DAO funding principles; only after GenLayer’s LLMs have tested them against these principles do they become available for voting. This has never before been possible on a blockchain, as GenLayer is the first of its kind to introduce complex decision-making to a decentralized ledger.
Moreover, the constitution itself was written in English, showcasing Intelligent Contracts’ natural language processing features. This innovation addresses a significant challenge in DAO governance by enforcing rules and maintaining the integrity of the organization without the need to keep humans in the loop.

Don’t Panic Developers - No worries, they debug with the calm of a Zen master.
The Don’t Panic Developers created an interactive text-based game called Roko's Mansion. The game has a fixed world and an open-world component, offering multiple levels of interaction. While players move through various rooms, they have to solve logic puzzles with nothing more than an inventory. The game dynamically generates new puzzles based on the player's actions, making cheating impossible.
The project builds upon GenLayer's complex decision-making and natural language processing capabilities to manage the game environment and generate unique puzzles. It displays the potential of Intelligent Contracts in creating deeply interactive and immersive experiences.

Sirius Cybernetics - Serious about coding, but with a splash of cosmic irony.
Sirius Cybernetics focused on enabling online identity verification with its Intelligent Contract. The project aims to help solve the emerging issue of fake and bot profiles. It validates the identities of individuals on professional networks like LinkedIn, for example, by verifying their names, organizations, and locations.
The Intelligent Contract searches the internet to cross-check personal information from the LinkedIn page and ensure that the identity is legitimate. This protocol can improve security and trust in online interactions, especially in professional environments where identity verification is often centralized. As a result, it constitutes the foundation for projects dependent on decentralized online verification such as DeFi markets that can assess a person's creditworthiness or parametric insurance payouts that can check claims.

The Towel Techies - Don’t sweat, they’ve got a towel and a tech solution for everything.
Team Towel Techies focused on an area that has been trending in the crypto space for a long time: social sentiment analysis. They developed a contract that automatically analyzes tweets from influencers and makes investment decisions based on their sentiment.
The primary feature is sentiment analysis, although users can opt-in for the automatic investment function after topping up their wallet with cryptocurrencies. The contract includes a leaderboard that tracks the performance of these investments over time.
The team highlighted the challenges of integrating real-time data and automating tweet analysis as their project demonstrated the potential of Intelligent Contracts for investment decision-making and automation purposes.

Vogon Constructors - Building code so solid, not even a Vogon poem could destroy it
Vogon Constructors developed a contract for managing GitHub bounties. Their solution automates the process of sponsoring open-source development by linking GitHub issues with bounties paid in cryptocurrency. The contract automatically verifies the completion of a GitHub issue through a pull request and processes the payment once the issue is closed.
This process is enabled by GenLayer's ability to verify pull requests published on the Internet and leverages its complex decision-making feature to determine if the bounty requirements have been fulfilled. It provides a secure and transparent way to fund open-source development, ensuring that developers are fairly compensated for their efforts.
