About this hackathon
An online hackathon during Devcon week, Nov 2–7, 2026, organized by Invisible Garden, a traveling academy for Ethereum developers. You claim real tasks from the leanp2p repo, implement pieces of Ethereum's networking layer in Lean 4 and prove properties of what you build, with every proof checked by Lean's kernel. Participation is free but curated (under ten contributors); apply by Nov 1. Code closes Nov 7, 23:59 UTC; a video explaining your work is due Nov 15. Prize pool $1,000 (Invisible Garden and EthPadThai, $500 each), with more being confirmed.
