Hackathon Continuation Program (HCP) - updates

Hackathon Continuation Program Report (Month 1)

We’re nearing the completion of the first month of the program and are happy to provide some updates. We’ll continue monthly communication from this point onwards unless there are any specific questions.

In the Words of the Ventures’ Leads

Venture Status Update

  • 3 out of 4 ventures have successfully gone through the first month of the program and we look forward to continuing the work with them throughout the rest of Phase 1 and 2.
  • Unfortunately, we’re discontinuing Nightly from the program. They accrued delays through some complications during the KYC process and after a month of working with them we have concerns about the ability of the team to catch up and deliver. Although not an ideal outcome, this is part of the continuous and close assessment designed into the program, allowing us to save Arbitrum funds.

Note on progress:
we accrued a few weeks of delay with the kick-off as aligning with the Arbitrum Foundation on contracting, conversion to stables, etc., took longer and more bandwidth than expected. However, the programme is now well on course.

Unfortunately, Phase 2 of the program is at risk due to the significant drop in the Arb market price and delays with conversion outside our direct control. We’ll be posting separately about this.
