- Build on Ztarknet, a Starknet L2 built over Zcash
- Cross chain messaging Starknet <> Zcash

Application (2 x $2,000)
- Zec <> Starknet wallet (Multichain Capabilities to Zashi Wallet)

- Atomic Swap (Zec <-> Starknet)
Or just surprise us with something no one saw coming
The hackathon is fully online and already live at zypherpunk.xyz.
