July 25th, Hack4FUTO 5.0 finally came to an end.
For the past few weeks, I had the opportunity to serve as the Technical Lead for this year's hackathon. Beyond planning the technical side of the event, I spent most of my time working with builders β running Solana workshops, mentoring teams, reviewing ideas, and helping them figure out where blockchain actually made sense in their projects.
Seeing students who had never touched Solana before build and present blockchain powered applications was easily one of the best parts of the experience.
None of this would have been possible without the amazing team I got to work with @HeIsJoel0x@amarachii_e@thatbwoysammyj@Bigdennis
Everyone put in countless hours to make sure the event came together, and I'm really proud of what we pulled off.
A big thank you as well to @SuperteamNG and our other sponsors for believing in what we're building and investing in student developers.
To every team that participated: thank you for showing up and building. I hope this is just the beginning for many of the projects we saw.
Until the next @Hack4Futo
Happy Birthday baddest Web developer π₯³π
Wishing you a year filled with endless wins, peace of mind, and opportunities.
Have an amazing celebration and enjoy your new age.
