Tamperproof founder Mike :
The Hackathon gave us the opportunity to break through our original plans, and gave us a lot of additional exposure in addition to the bonus. The Demo Day brought us many valuable resources , and the support we received did not stop until the end of the Hackathon. In addition, the Hackathon also helped us achieve good cooperation with other participating projects, allowing us to obtain high-quality partners and cooperation opportunities . Tensor and their "Partner Reward Program" are good examples.
Tinydancer CEO &CTO Anoushk :
When exploring interesting and unsolved problems in the Solana ecosystem, I had serious communication with my friends at Superteam DAO and found that Solana currently does not have a light node protocol. This is a vacant but very important area, so we joined this year Grizzlython and won the award. After that, the Solana ecosystem gave us a lot of exposure and resource support , allowing us to continue to develop and innovate.
