The event

A 36 hour student hackathon with EasyA drawing Harvard and MIT builders onto Stellar around cash to DeFi use cases, with $25,000 in prizes split across a main pool and a separate Shark Tank track so teams had more than one way to place.

Entry, food, and round the clock in-person mentorship.
