🎸Rock Web5 · Nantang: Five Heartwarming Projects Lighting Up the Web5 Sky ✨ Hey folks! It’s your buddy Yixiu here, back again with some exciting updates. We just wrapped up the first-ever "Rock Web5 Hackathon" in Nantang, and I can’t wait to share the highlights with you! From March 16th to 22nd, we kicked things off with three days of intense knowledge sharing and brainstorming, followed by two days of hardcore coding. Then came Demo Day, where teams showed off their awesome projects. Let’s take a look at what went down! 🚀 🏆Award-Winning Projects Best Project Award: Neural Er Gou - Your Friendly AI Community Companion Team Members: Eric, Xiaoliu, Liu Yuanwang, Wen Qian GitHub: github.com/D-lyw/tipping-… This project is seriously awesome! Neural Er Gou is like a 24/7 AI assistant for the CKB community. If you post #CKB content on a Nostr-based social platform, you might just get a little “windfall” in the form of a tip from Er Gou! But that’s not all—Neural Er Gou doesn’t just surface high-quality content; it can also hop into Discord and Telegram, answering questions and interacting with community members like a pro. And here’s the coolest part: the team designed an adorable Er Gou character and gave the word "Neural" a clever twist—it’s a nod to the sci-fi novel Neuromancer while also tying back to Nervos. Genius, right? Not only that, but the team launched Er Gou ahead of Demo Day, running a full-on community event to test the entire workflow—while other teams were still deep in coding mode, watching in envy! And that’s not all! They also thought about how to spread Neural Er Gou even further. Their solution? A custom sticker pack featuring Er Gou’s adorable persona! They totally earned that Best Project Award—this team came in with serious skills! No wonder on Demo Day, after watching their video and slides, I couldn’t help but sigh: "Neural Er Gou is truly a dog." Check out their demo video here: bilibili.com/video/BV12gXnY… (Log in for HD quality! ) But hey, everything we’ve talked about so far is just scratching the surface. To truly enter Neural Er Gou’s mind, you must check out their PPT: notion.so/1bc422f0baee80… Most Market Potential Award: Constellar Team Members: Yu Xing, David, Gu Yi GitHub: github.com/rink1969/const… PPT: gamma.app/docs/Constella… This project is truly a showstopper! Imagine if all the key moments of a community or DAO could be transformed into stars in the night sky—how cool would that be? Well, that’s exactly what Constellar is all about—an incredibly poetic and visually stunning concept! Why the name "Constellar"? Because in the vast Web3 universe, each community member is like a unique star. And just like real constellations, we need a way to connect these stars, forming a beautiful, meaningful pattern that represents an organization. To be honest, this project tackles one of the biggest headaches in community/DAO governance—the bigger the organization gets, the harder it is to align everyone's thoughts and values. Constellar solves this in a beautifully elegant way—it builds a "spiritual universe" for DAOs where consensus is visualized and strengthened. Here’s how it works: 🌟 Capturing Key Moments – Every member can record meaningful moments for the organization, like lighting up a new star in the sky. 🎯 Visualizing Consensus – Through interactions like likes and views, the system generates a "Values Star Map"—the more engagement a moment gets, the brighter and bigger it appears, making it super easy to see what resonates most within the community. 🚀 Onboarding New Members – Instead of sifting through endless docs, newcomers can simply explore the star map to grasp the community’s culture and values at a glance and see if they truly fit in. 💫 Finding a Shared Vision – By analyzing interaction data, Constellar helps the organization identify its "North Star"—the direction most people align with. This is why Constellar won the "Most Market Potential Award"—it’s more than just a tool. It creates a deep sense of belonging for community members. Whether it’s a DAO or a Web3 community, every organization needs something like this to unite its people. Best Technical Implementation Award: Anti Hero Team Members: Xingtian, Pian Pian, Zhang Yin GitHub: github.com/pianpian324/an… PPT: file.notion.so/f/f/a9b2ad65-1… Demo Video: pan.quark.cn/s/ff79980fcb68… Now this team? Absolute legends. Even though they didn’t have a professional developer, they still managed to build an awesome DAO onboarding system—all thanks to AI tools and sheer determination. Anti Hero makes onboarding super fun and easy by using gamified Q&A and a points system to help newcomers integrate smoothly into the community. Now, you might be wondering: "Wait… the Best Technical Implementation Award went to a team with no coding experience?! Are you serious?" Hold that thought! Let me take you inside the Anti Hero team, and you’ll see why they absolutely deserved this win. At first, the Anti Hero team wasn’t even a self-formed group—they ended up together after all the other teams were formed, so they basically had to automatically become a team. When I saw this group, I honestly had a bad feeling and thought to myself: "Uh-oh, this team is in trouble." But when the group split up, things quickly got worse. That night (3/19), as they dove into development, Xingtian was completely torn apart by GitHub, facing endless issues. To make things worse, another team member, Pian Pian, had his personal computer broken down for repairs, so he had to borrow someone else's—but the computer lacked the necessary development environment. It felt like the universe was conspiring against them! Yet, instead of giving up or feeling defeated, they pulled themselves together and knew exactly what they had to do. That night, they set up clear tasks and divided responsibilities: Pian Pian handled the importing of documents and used AI to generate the knowledge base questions. Xingtian focused on designing the app’s interaction logic, setting up the project with the ccc framework (create-ccc-app), and then worked on other features. Both of them worked separately on their own branches, and finally merged everything together. The third team member, Zhang Yin, used AI tools to generate 100 Web3-related questions, which Xingtian used to test the main flow of the app. Meanwhile, Zhang Yin also prepared the reporting materials for the team. Despite all the setbacks, this team didn’t fold—they worked smart and efficiently to keep moving forward. On March 20, the first official day of coding, things started to make progress. Xingtian successfully set up the project and got it running. When he clicked the "Connect Wallet" button, the ccc wallet connection manager popped up, and he was able to see the wallet address displayed smoothly—a big win! This gave him a glimmer of hope, and he quickly ran the commands git add ., git commit -m 'Initialized project', and git push xxx. By this point, Xingtian was already pretty familiar with these commands. However, there was still a lot left to do, and he felt uncertain about everything. After getting back to the hotel, Xingtian continued to work on integrating with Windsurf (an AI-powered development tool). By the time he finally went to sleep, it was already past 4 AM. The next day, he showed up to Hacker House like it was no big deal. He had already made a mind map of the app’s interaction logic and fed it to AI. At first, the AI was being uncooperative, and the results weren’t what he expected. But Xingtian didn’t give up. He rolled back the AI’s code, kept refining his communication with the AI, and little by little, guided it to implement the features he envisioned. "It’s taking off!" This became the most common phrase we heard at our Hacker House. It's not even really a complete sentence—just three words—but they communicated one thing: Xingtian had tamed the AI and overcome yet another technical hurdle. We couldn't be happier for them! After several rounds of "taking off", we saw them make steady progress, step by step. They had the AI generate JSON files from the text-based question bank, modify page styles, add settings panels, build knowledge base pages, implement AI-generated questions, optimize the game page, improve the question timer, update question statuses, design the scoreboard and prize pool, and even implement Mint DOB after completing a set of questions. Each git commit was a breakthrough! At this point, they could have just called it done, but Anti Hero wasn’t satisfied. The reason? Currently, the Mint DOB function was set up for users to create a Cluster with their own wallets and use their own CKB to mint the DOB. The team believed the DOB rewards should actually come from the platform, not the user. So, they started working on adding an API interface to allow the front-end to call the platform to mint DOB and send it to the user’s wallet address. After the transaction was successful, it would return the result to the front-end. They got sidetracked a bit by the AI, but eventually, through everyone's combined effort, they completed the project. We have to admit, throughout this process, they demonstrated a true artisan spirit, carefully crafting every detail and continuously improving their work to achieve the best possible result. It was truly admirable! And with that, the Anti Hero team's story comes to a close. This team, starting from zero front-end development experience, used the game-changing productivity tool—AI empowerment—to ultimately complete what many thought was the "impossible task," delivering a fully functional application prototype with interactive logic. Their comeback journey reminds us of the core spirit of the phenomenal animated film Ne Zha—"My fate is mine to decide, not the heavens." They too shine brightly at Hack Web5, embodying that same defiant spirit. The story of Anti Hero also inspires us: don’t worry about lacking experience on CKB, as long as you have an idea, a good concept, dive in and just go for it! Best Innovation Award: Proof of Understanding Developer: Tiao Tiao GitHub: github.com/notthere-2023/… PPT: #slide=id.g3429f980d28_0_61" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">docs.google.com/presentation/d… This project is like the "communication clearing truck" of the Web5 world! Think about it: in the blockchain world, a misunderstanding could mean a loss of assets, and not fully understanding a proposal vote could affect the entire future of a DAO. Proof of Understanding was born to solve these real-world problems. Its core concept is refreshingly simple: before making key decisions, ensure that everyone really understands the matter! Because of its simplicity, it’s extremely flexible, and when combined with AI, it could become particularly practical. So, what are some of its practical use cases? 🎯 DAO Proposal VotingBefore voting, members must rephrase the core content of the proposal in their own words. The system intelligently checks if the rephrasing is accurate. Only those who truly understand can participate in the vote, eliminating "bandwagon voting" and "random voting." ⚠️ DeFi Risk ConfirmationBefore participating in high-risk DeFi projects, users need to accurately describe the risks involved. AI verifies if the user truly understands the potential for financial loss. Reduces the disputes of "I didn't know this would happen." 💬 Community Dispute MediationBoth sides of a disagreement must rephrase the other's perspective. Ensures everyone is discussing the same issue. Effectively avoids "talking past each other." 📚 Protocol Upgrade NotificationsBefore major upgrades, users must confirm their understanding of the changes. Simple Q&A checks for key information. Prevents losses due to ignoring important updates. Although time constraints and the fact that Tiao Tiao worked solo meant only the communication aspect of the Proof of Understanding was completed, the concept itself remains highly impactful. By integrating AI to assess understanding, this approach goes beyond simple "copy-paste" verification—requiring users to genuinely comprehend and articulate the content in their own words. It's like adding a "understanding firewall" to the Web5 world, ensuring that every significant decision is made based on real comprehension. In short, Proof of Understanding! Proving that you understand—this idea could only have come from Tiao Tiao! No wonder the judges awarded it the Best Innovation Award! This project not only addresses real-world problems but also offers a completely new perspective for the healthy development of the entire Web5 ecosystem. Just imagine, if everyone ensured they truly understood the situation before making important decisions, our communities would become so much more rational and efficient! Who in the community could create an npm SDK based on this idea, allowing the scenarios mentioned above to come to life? Check out his demo here: file.notion.so/f/f/9d06bd50-0… Liangwa Room: Using Blockchain to Illuminate Rural Education's Stars Team Members: Yan Hanbai, Ling Enhao, Xiang Hongyang GitHub: github.com/Gamer-BTC/nant… PPT: lumbar-pair-50e.notion.site/1bd6930bb5f480… This project immediately touches the heart! While everyone else is discussing how to make money with Web3, this group of young volunteers from Liangwa Room are thinking about how to use this technology to bring rural children closer to the wonderful world and record their growth experiences. Why is it called "Liangwa Room"? Because in the countryside, tiled houses are the most common type of building, and this project is like lighting a lamp of hope in every tiled house! The project is designed as follows: 🏠 Offline Physical SpaceEstablish "Liangwa Room" art creation spaces in rural areas Equip with basic art tools and digital devices Become the "second classroom" for children after school Make art education no longer exclusive to city children 🎨 Creative Growth RecordsEach child has their own dynamic NFT growth record Record every painting, poem, and craftwork they create Works are directly recorded on-chain, permanently stored on the blockchain Witness the children's growth trajectory, like an "electronic growth album" that never disappears 🌟 Gamified IncentivesDesign an engaging task system Completing creative works earns little stars Participate in community activities to earn badges Make learning and creation a fun experience 🤝 Community ConnectionBuild an "art bridge" between urban and rural children City children can collect artworks from rural children Use blockchain to verify ownership and distribute earnings Help rural children feel that their creations have value The most heartwarming feature of the project is the "Starlight Market" function, where children can exchange the stars they've earned for stationery, art supplies, and other creative tools. This not only nurtures their interest in creation but also teaches them the relationship between giving and receiving. In an era where the digital divide is widening, Liangwa Room showcases the warmest side of Web5 technology—using blockchain to bring new possibilities to rural education. It reminds us that the ultimate goal of technology is not to create gaps, but to narrow them; not to build barriers, but to build bridges. As the team says: "Every child deserves the opportunity to shine." Liangwa Room is here to ensure that every rural child's creativity is seen, cherished, and remembered, shining like stars in the night sky. 💫 The Future is Here: The Infinite Possibilities of Web5 This Rock Web5 Hackathon has brought us not only five amazing projects but also a glimpse into the infinite possibilities of Web5 technology. From these projects, we can feel how Web5 is subtly changing our lives: 🤖 Making AI more relatable: Neural Er Gou breaks the gap between humans and AI with an adorable character, making community interactions warmer. 🌌 Creating stronger organizational cohesion: Constellar uses a romantic starry sky metaphor to make abstract values visible and tangible. 🤝 Deepening communication: Proof of Understanding ensures every important decision is made on the basis of true understanding with a clever mechanism. 🎮 Making learning more fun: Anti Hero proves that with AI empowerment, anyone can create great products. 🌟 Bringing hope to education: Liangwa Room bridges the educational gap between rural and urban areas with blockchain, ensuring every child’s creativity is cherished. What makes this hackathon special is that the participating teams didn't simply chase after flashy technology; they genuinely thought about how to solve real-world problems with it. They have demonstrated the most charming qualities of Web5: It can maintain the simplicity and ease of Web2. It safeguards the autonomy of Web3. It is full of human-centered care. After seeing these projects, we are more confident than ever: technology’s mission is not to create new divides, but to build bridges; not to pile up cold code, but to deliver warm human care. We look forward to these creative seeds taking root and blossoming in the fertile soil of Web5, and to more imaginative projects emerging in future hackathons! As this hackathon has shown us: In the world of Web5, technology and humanity are never opposed, innovation and warmth can coexist. Let’s look forward to the next gathering (May, Huaqiangbei, Shenzhen), continuing to use technology to spread warmth and innovation to light up the future!
