Summary
ETHPrague was the fourth event since AGD’s fourth renewal in January 2023 and was the third AGD-sponsored hackathon. This event was added to further engage the community ahead of GHO’s launch and experiment with different hackathon prizes.
AGD hosted a booth during the hackathon weekend and facilitated and judged hackathon submissions for projects building on Aave.
After seeing numerous hackathon projects building to support Aave governance in previous hackathons and the importance of governance, along with our proposal on how to utilize the OP AGD received as a part of OP Stimpack phase 0, we decided to experiment with offering explicit grants for projects building on Aave x Optimism and governance in addition to projects building on GHO.
Personnel
No one from AGD attended. Aave Co had a delegation of 6 people who were dedicated to supporting the Aave booth, including founder Stani Kulechov.
