Join EasyA and Ripple in London

The EasyA x Ripple hackathon in London is set to be a banger, and it's right at the start of the year! We know you hackers have been itching to get out there and launch new ideas, especially on the new XRP Ledger EVM Sidechain.

This hackathon will have a focus on financial technology, and we can't wait to see what you build. Your idea can be anything from an app to help people invest money more easily, all the way up to a decentralized exchange where people can trade assets!

Together with Ripple, we’ve been working super hard to kick the year off with a bang, and we can’t wait to welcome you to one of our most hyped hackathons yet this April 13-14!
