Welcome! If you’re hacking with Walrus for the first time, here are some project ideas designed to spark your imagination and help you ship fast. Each idea offers a path to an MVP, and some are eligible for RFP funding if you’re excited to keep building beyond the hackathon.

ENS-powered Walrus Sites

Allow EVM builders to host Walrus Sites using their ENS names (e.g. yourname.eth).

Emergency backup as-a-service

Help blobs recover their expired blobs for a fee.

  1. Write a classifier to predict which expiring blobs are still being used
  2. Use it to save expiring blobs (i.e. store them again in Walrus). Encrypt the saved blob using a Seal key
  3. Offer automated recovery process to the original blob's owner </aside>

GitHub actions for documentation sites

Automate deployment of documentation sites from GitHub repos.

Migration tool

Make it dead simple to move data to Walrus from popular web2 and web3 platforms. Submit your MVP for a chance to continue building in our RFP program.
