<h1 class="heading-node">Intro</h1>Thank you for your interest in SolBlaze's Liquid Staking and Validator Ecosystem Data track for [REDACTED], we're super excited to see what you build!This track is split into two different categories: Liquid Staking Data, and Validator Ecosystem Data. You may choose to submit a project that aligns with only one of these categories or incorporates elements of both categories.<h1 class="heading-node">Deliverables</h1>Liquid Staking Data: Build dashboards that analyze liquid staking data, with an emphasis on SolBlaze’s bSOL.Some ideas include:<ul class="list-node"><li>Showing metrics on bSOL’s growth over time (users, TVL, etc.)</li><li>Showing where bSOL is being used in DeFi at the protocol and/or individual pool level and showcasing overall trends</li><li>Analyzing the profitability of various bSOL DeFi strategies given current and/or theoretical APYs</li><li>Decoding and showing a human-readable view of a user’s bSOL interactions with the stake pool smart contract as well as DeFi protocols</li></ul>Validator Ecosystem Data: Build dashboards and algorithms that highlight malicious validator activitySome ideas include:<ul class="list-node"><li>Identifying when validators are potentially running as sybils by analyzing validator profiles and on-chain interactions</li><li>Analyzing sandwiching and other malicious MEV activity on Solana and which validators are potentially directly facilitating malicious MEV</li><li>Investigating validator voting behavior to gain insights on whether validators are acting maliciously (parroting votes, committing lockout violations, etc.)</li></ul><h1 class="heading-node">Judging Criteria</h1><ol class="list-node"><li>Creativity: Your submission should be a novel approach which does not currently exist on other platforms.</li><li>Originality: All work submitted should be based on your original efforts, although you can do research on similar offerings to gather inspiration.</li><li>Complexity: Aim to build a platform or algorithm that goes beyond the bare minimum and provides additional features or insights.</li><li>Usage of SolBlaze: For Liquid Staking Data, make sure to incorporate bSOL into your submission. For Validator Ecosystem Data, make sure to analyze all validators but with a specific emphasis on validators receiving stake from BlazeStake/bSOL.</li></ol><h1 class="heading-node">Submission Requirements</h1><ol class="list-node"><li>Ensure that your submission is done in English and represents your own original work. Plagiarism or purely AI-generated submissions will be rejected.&nbsp;</li><li>Include all relevant materials in your submission, including your code and any applicable supporting materials (demo video or live MVP, analysis writeup, etc.)</li><li>Make sure your submission is either publicly viewable, accessible through a link, or privately shared with SolBlaze. Submissions that we cannot access will be disqualified.</li></ol><h1 class="heading-node">Prize Details</h1><ul class="list-node"><li>1st Place: 4000 USDC</li><li>2nd Place: 3000 USDC</li><li>3rd Place: 2000 USDC</li><li>Honorable Mention - Liquid Staking Data: 500 USDC</li><li>Honorable Mention - Validator Ecosystem Data: 500 USDC</li></ul>
