As part of the Collabathon, builders coded over 384 hours to deploy Helios Connect, a DApp that solves user fragmentation.
Layer-1 blockchain MultiversX (EGLD) announced its support to the Helios Collabathon, conducted by Helios Staking, to redefine product building through collaboration over competition.
Jointly supported by the MultiversX Foundation, Hatom, XOXNO, and the Injective Foundation, the first-of-its-kind Collabathon brought together 14 Web3 builders to solve pressing industry challenges related to singular user identity across multiple blockchains.
The Collabathon’s participants deployed a fully-functioning MVP of Helios Connect in 8 days, with a clean interface and Smart Contracts deployed on mainnet on both the Injective and MultiversX blockchains. Simultaneously, all content and related documentation were posted to ensure the product has visibility and is usable afterwards, resulting in Helios Connect acquiring active users.
A fully open-source product, Helios Connect allow users to create a singular, unified identity across multiple blockchains, addressing a significant challenge of user fragmentation in the decentralised ecosystem. By simplifying and securing identity management, Helios Connect is poised to become a building block for a plethora of applications that strengthen connections between different ecosystems.
Robert Sasu, Core Developer of MultiversX, said, “I am truly impressed by how much the team accomplished in just 10 days, proving how this Collabathon can bring viable products with real use cases to market whilst sparking innovation between communities.”
Kevin Lydon, Co-founder and Managing Director of Helios Staking, said, “The Helios Collabathon has proven to be a huge success, not only in achieving our technological goals but also in creating a spirit of collaboration. We are looking forward to developing the concept further and pushing the boundaries of what is currently thought possible.”
Helios Connect’s open-source feature paves the way for integrated cross-chain use cases, such as cross-chain identity management. This approach is designed to provide a platform where cross-chain products and services can grow and thrive, enabling the wider Web3 ecosystem to benefit from this cutting-edge technology.
