The annual hackathon AwesomWasm, organized by CosmWasm's development team Confio, has concluded on the Dora Factory's blockchain governance infrastructure, Dora Vota, with MACI quadratic voting. This event marked a significant milestone as it was the first application of MACI quadratic voting in a CosmWasm community event and the initial use of the MACI mechanism in a large-scale event within the Cosmos ecosystem.

The hackathon saw participation from 14 BUIDL teams in the final voting review, showcasing the vibrant and engaged community within the CosmWasm ecosystem. Core members from Kuijira, Neutron, and Abstract, who were track sponsors, actively participated in the MACI quadratic voting process. The final awards were determined based on the results of the MACI voting, ensuring a fair and transparent evaluation of the participating teams.

The ZK proofs generated from the voting results have been uploaded to the Dora Vota voting page, and the MACI voting results can be directly obtained through the related contract link. This transparency and accessibility of the voting results demonstrate the commitment of the organizers to upholding the principles of decentralization and community governance.

The specific results of the hackathon will be announced later on the DoraHacks platform, building anticipation and excitement within the community. This hackathon, co-hosted by Confio and DoraHacks for two consecutive years, has established itself as one of the most important developer events in the CosmWasm ecosystem. It serves as a platform for showcasing innovation, fostering collaboration, and driving the growth and adoption of CosmWasm and the broader Cosmos ecosystem.
