First EOS Hackathon in Oslo, Norway
BitSpace and Etheos are teaming up with Newmark Capital and Syncano to host the first EOS Hackathon in Oslo, Norway in association with the Human Impact Hackathon.
We will be be focusing on the blockchain aspect of the event and have allocated $1000 to the best solution the winner team comes up with.
The event will be hosted at Explorer HQ at Youngstorget in the centre of Oslo, and the schedule will go as follows:
| Day 1 (February 21st) | Day 2 (February 22nd) |
|---|---|
| 09:00 - 10:00 Registration | 00:00 - 14:00 Hacking time! |
| 10:00 - 12:00 Welcoming session | 14:00 - 15:00 Finishing projects |
| 12:00 - 13:00 Teams formation | 15:00 - 17:00 Presentations of projects & announcement of the winners |
| 13:00 - 23:59 Hacking time! | 17:00 - ∞ After party |
There's no technological restriction on what you can use to build your project. However, there are going to be some special categories like:
- best blockchain-based solution
- best EOS-based solution
- best Syncano-based solution
- best AWS-based solution
- the craziest idea
“The Human Impact Hackathon is also a unique opportunity to create projects that can become a spark for a better future. You and your team will have 24 hours to prepare something that works and show it to others! Don’t have a team? Don’t worry, just come and you’ll find someone to work with. All competencies are needed, all you need is passion and curiosity.”

We hope to see you there. Good luck!

I believe I have a great idea. As some of you might know, new legislation in the Netherlands made all citizens automatically an organ donor unless a citizen officially objects against such practice. This is new in the world as far as I know of and even though politicians are still euphoric about their newly invented law in the hope it will be for the better of human kind, nothing was ever deviced to make a donor profit from his/her good intensions, or have a clear safety net to prevent gross misuse of the profit made trading in organs. At the same time, gross money is made by hospitals, surgeons, insurances and other organisations already. I want to change that!!!
My first idea was to create a UIA on bitshares for each organ group. That ofcourse, with the right collateral can be freely exchanged, but at the same time secures profit for the donor itself. At the same time I can choose which organs I want to put up for donorship. This can be for reasons as in personal preference but also for medical reasons. There are some more ideas necessary to make this work.
I like to see this project kickstart soon, as soon as possible to be honest and this hackathon might be the way to do it. However, I need to get to Oslo first and be able to sleep at some place for the duration of the event. I had a almost deadly accident myself not so long ago and even though I wrote C#, C, JavaScript, PHP, etc fluently, at the moment I'm not sharp enough to program at that place anymore. But I'm dead serious! 😉
If you like this idea, and I hope so, I need finances to jump go to this event but most of all very driven programmers that like to realize this project even after the hackathon. If you like this idea and are a programmer or you like to invest in it, please send me a pm.
