🏆 About the Hackathon

This project was built as part of the Encode x Arc Enterprise & DeFi Hackathon — a full 3-day, twice-overnight hackathon hosted at Encode Hub, London, with 300 builders and a $10,000 prize pool.

The hackathon focused on building on Arc, an open Layer-1 blockchain created by Circle, purpose-built to unite programmable money and onchain innovation with real-world economic activity — covering DeFi, enterprise finance, banking infrastructure, and programmable money ecosystems.
