Update

Hey Stacks Hacker,

Thanks for registering for #HackStacks! We’re looking forward to working with you and seeing what you build!

We’re in touch just to let you know that instead of starting on 09/16, #HackStacks will be starting one week after the launch of Phase 3 (Krypton) of the Stacks 2.0 Testnet, currently expected before the end September. We will notify you as soon as the start date is locked in so that you can begin building your #HackStacks projects.

In the meantime, we highly encourage you to start prepping for the hackathon by attending these upcoming workshops:

• 09/16: PoX Deep Dive with Jude Nelson (Register: https://www.crowdcast.io/e/hackstacks-pox-deep-dive)
• 09/23: Stacking overview with Aaron Blankstein and Jeff Domke (Register: https://www.crowdcast.io/e/intro-to-stacking)
• 09/24: Mining bot demo by Xan Ditkoff and Gavin Gao (link to come)
