The first ever XRP Ledger hackathon

You've almost certainly heard of Ripple. But did you know about their recently launched XRP Ledger?

The XRP Ledger is the leading decentralized public blockchain built for business. And this April, we're inviting you to be one of the first developers in the world to build on this amazing new technology. If you've always wanted to build the next Revolut or Monzo, or you're just passionate about FinTech and want to launch your dApp straight into Ripple's huge ecosystem, you won't want to miss this hackathon.

We're giving away £25,000 to the winners of this hackathon (plus much more in grant funding!) so sign up fast before spaces run out!
