Helius offers a suite of Solana-based developer tools, such as RPCs, APIs, webhooks and data infrastructure. By taking care of developers’ infrastructure needs, it aims to make it easier for them to start focussing on their core product.

Keeping in line with its ethos of supporting builders on Solana, Helius is offering a bounty for developers enrolled in Nas’ Solana Dev Course to build a project that uses any of Helius’ services.

To be eligible, your project needs to use at least one of Helius’ services. Builders can opt for Helius’s free version (for usage up to 100k credits). The most impressive project wins!
