About

Storage Proofs provide smart contracts with synchronous access to on-chain data across Ethereum layers. Our solutions allow smart contracts to read and process historical and current on-chain data. This enables developers to write contracts that can seamlessly retrieve data from L1 State on L2s, L2 State on L1s, and L2 State on L2s, eliminating the necessity for asynchronous messaging. The Integrity Verifier enables verification of STARK proofs on Starknet, paving the way for Starknet Layer 3s.

Prizes

🛠️ Best Storage Proof Tooling$1,500
Create tooling that improves the user experience of using Storage Proofs. An example could be a tool that simplifies retrieving storage keys from smart contracts, particularly those with nested mappings used in contracts like USDC, DAI, or popular NFT collections on Ethereum Solidity and/or StarkNet Cairo. Such tooling should address challenges developers face in accessing storage keys, making it easier to extract these keys and craft Storage Proof API Queries.

Qualification Requirements

- Tool must simplify and improve the user experience of using Storage Proofs. - Support contracts on Ethereum Solidity and/or StarkNet Cairo. - Code must be open-source and available on GitHub. - Provide documentation and examples.

🛰️ Best Use of Storage Proof API$1,500

🔏 One multisig to rule them all$2,000
Argent’s Multisig is a must-have for companies, protocols and DAOs holding crypto. Starknet and native account abstraction open up a new design space where multisigs are controlled by signers, not accounts. That means your multisig can live in your Argent X wallet directly which is better for some use-cases but can also be limiting for others. In this track prize, you will be rewarded for building an interface on top of the Argent multisig that will help teams and companies with treasury management. Some of the features that could be included in that interface: - Clear activity view - Address book - Read-only mode: can view the multisig without login in - Scheduled transactions - Ability to upload a csv and make a transaction out of it for payroll management - Management of multisig owners - ....

Qualification Requirements

- The interface must super-charge the Argent multisig and extend it's capabilities - Keeps DAOs, teams and companies in mind - Get inspiration from existing multisigs on other chains !
