Zama Developer Program Mainnet Season 5

Welcome to the Zama Developer Program - Mainnet Season 5!

Each round, we reward developers who deploy confidential dApps on Ethereum mainnet using the Zama Protocol.

For this season, the challenge is to go live: take your confidential dApp from testnet to Ethereum mainnet and get real users. Build anything confidential: onchain finance, confidential yield and swaps, payroll, or confidentiality for an existing dApp.

Requirements: * A functioning dApp demo built on the Zama Protocol and deployed on Polygon Amoy testnet, including: * Smart contract + Frontend code base * Working demo deployed on a website * Disclaimer shown in the app and in the README: "This project is not audited, endorsed or operated by Zama. Use at your own risk."
* A 3-minute video demo to pitching the project (Real-person pitch only. AI-generated video or voice will not be considered.)
* A thread or article published on X introducing your project.
Rewards: 5,000 cUSDT in total, shared by the top 5 projects based on real onchain usage. The distribution may be adjusted based on the quality of the projects and the activity observed. Projects with fake, automated or self-generated activity will be disqualified.
Deployment: Ethereum mainnet, with a Zama mainnet API key. Apply for your key here.
Submission deadline: November 23rd, 23:59 AOE
