We believe that every dApp should be built by leveraging smart contract accounts, as this allows for better overall UX for the user. Gnosis provides two SDKs that enable developers to easily take advantage of smart contract account features, such as batched transactions, and build better dApps.
- Safe Apps SDK: Build an optimized plugin app for the Gnosis Safe Multisig, which is used to store >$1B in digital assets
- Contract Proxy Kit: Build a standalone dApp and give every user a contract proxy account which is controlled by the user’s wallet (Metamask, etc.). dApps built with the Contract Proxy Kit automatically work as a Safe App, but can also work outside of the Safe Multisig interface.
To qualify for this bounty, just integrate either the Safe Apps SDK or the Contract Proxy Kit into your solution. Here is a list of ideas of what you could build. We also have additional prizes for specific uses of Gnosis technologies.
Don’t feel like stopping after ETHOnline? We provide you with follow-on grants to support you after the hackathon to bring your idea to the next level.
General Prizes — $4,000
Any hack qualifies for these prizes as long as they integrate either the Contract Proxy Kit or the Safe Apps SDK. For the best overall solutions, we’ll award prizes worth $4,000:
- 1st Prize — $2,500
- 2nd Prize — $1,000
- 3rd Prize — $500
Technology Prizes — $4,000
Besides the general awards, you may also qualify for some of our category prizes. Gnosis provides essential infrastructure and frameworks to build decentralized applications, governance mechanisms and more. Build a solution leveraging either the Gnosis Conditional Tokens Framework or the Gnosis Protocol decentralized trading protocol to qualify for additional prizes.
Best use of Conditional Tokens — $2,000
Conditional Tokens were designed to enable futarchy; governance by prediction markets. For DAOs, this means using prediction markets to make or inform organizational decisions. To have a chance of winning this challenge, use the Conditional Tokens Framework to build something that helps DAOs make decisions.

Best use of Gnosis Protocol — $2,000
Gnosis Protocol (GP) is a fully permissionless DEX for ERC20 tokens, enabling ring trades to maximise liquidity. The design of the Gnosis Protocol is ideal for Initial DEX Offerings (IDOs) or other high-value trading applications. Build a tool that leverages or extends the Gnosis Protocol to qualify for this prize.
