Plasm Network is a multi-virtual machines scalable smart contract platform on Polkadot supporting cutting-edge layer2 solutions. Recently, Plasm Network announced the vision of an Ethereum compatible network and supported the Ethereum Virtual Machine on it’s testnet. Polkadot Relaychain doesn’t support smart contract functionalities by design. Thus, all DApps developers need at least one Parachain that supports smart contracts. When it comes to smart contracts, we believe that scalability is the most fundamental issue we have to solve. That’s why we are implementing layer2 solutions on the top of Plasm Network.

Gitcoin has integrated Polkadot and Kusama tokens (DOT and KSM) into its tech stack, making them one of the first full integrations outside of the Ethereum ecosystem.
To celebrate the integration on Gitcoin, we are organizing Hello World! by Polkadot, a series of challenges to bring you on a journey of Polkadot development discovery.
Check out the kick-off webinar for more details and information.
The challenges are in four categories: (1) Beginner, (2) Intermediate, (3) Advanced, and (4) Ecosystem. The first three are written specifically for Polkadot and Kusama, whereas the Ecosystem category is made up of challenges created by Polkadot ecosystem projects. Challenge payouts are capped at 50, meaning that only the first fifty valid submissions will receive a payout.
| Challenge | # | Prize | Cap |
|---|---|---|---|
| Beginner | 7 | 3 DOT | 50 |
| Intermediate | 5 | 1 KSM | 50 |
| Advanced | 4 | 10 DOT | 50 |
| Ecosystem | 8 | 5 DOT | 50 |
In addition, there is an EXTRA PRIZE of 150 DOT for the first 50 that manage to complete 18 or more challenges.
Everyone successfully solving any challenge and receiving a payout will also get an awesome piece of Polkadot swag as well as a Kusama-based NFT, issued via RMRK.
