After three months of BUIDLing, our Hackathon yielded an amazing 80 submissions, all of which were unique and innovative in their own ways. Judging proved to be quite the arduous task, sorting through the submissions and distilling the various aspects of the projects to ultimately determine the winners. We are so grateful to all our Hackers and are already looking forward to hosting our next Hackathon.
Now, to shine some spotlight on the winners!

Winner: Metis Safe
Metis Safe is an Ethereum-based smart contract wallet that needs a minimum number of persons to authorize a transaction before it can take place (M-of-N). If you have three primary stakeholders in your firm, for example, you may configure the wallet to need consent from all three persons before the transaction is sent. This ensures that no single person may jeopardize the funds.
