Cosmos and KryptoSeoul are proud to present their first hackathon in Southeast Asia in 2021—the 2021 HackAtom is coming to HCMC, Vietnam. Due to the recent COVID situation in Vietnam, we decided to run the hackathon online. Anyone from around the world is now free to apply to HackAtom HCMC. Teams will compete to take home the $10,000 grand prize, rewarded to the best team that builds the Interchain vision.
