Our take

One of the leading hacker ecosystems, DoraHacks has connected hundreds of thousands of hackers and developers around the world. Utilising rolling incentives - or “bounties” - for collaboration in resolving business's tech issues, DoraHacks represents an organic and near limitless community and recruitment platform.

With the organic nature of DoraHacks comes a near limitless realm of possibilities, making waves across domains such as blockchain, quantum computing and space tech. This has been recognised by investors, empowering the company to fund scaling and pacing for their Hackathons and recruitment drives.

A large number of open source communities, companies and blockchain ecosystems are actively using Dora's infrastructure. The company has also partnered with Dora Factory and ATOM Accelerator DAO to launch a quadratic funding initiative for Cosmos communities - in a "democratic governance experiment" to mobilize community power to support public goods and early-stage developers.
