About the Based Africa Buildathon: Base is for everyone, and this fall, Base is going global with a series of regional buildathons, connecting builders across Africa, India, Southeast Asia, and Latin America. These buildathons will run from September 27th to October 13th, offering a total of 100 ETH in prizes. The buildathon is open to participants from these four regions and will be hosted online via Devfolio.
Buildathon Prompt: Build an onchain app that solves a challenge in your community. See a problem in your community? Solve it. Have an idea? Just build it. Every app you create brings us closer to an onchain world where everyone thrives.
