what's HackQuest?
HackQuest is a Web3 development platform that empowers builders through hands-on hackathons, educational tracks, and collaborative events. It focuses on emerging blockchain technologies, offering learning modules on topics like Ethereum's SVM L2s built with Rust and Anchor, modular data availability, and intelligent NFTs (iNFTs). Participants engage in live workshops, mentorship sessions, and demo days, often in partnership with ecosystems such as Solana, 0G Labs, and others, fostering innovation in decentralized applications and AI-integrated assets. The platform emphasizes practical skill-building with rewards, certifications, and exposure to real-world projects. It hosts mini hacker houses and co-learning camps that combine technical deep dives—covering verifiable AI behaviors, oracle networks, and decentralized inference—with community networking. By bridging education and deployment, HackQuest accelerates the growth of Web3 talent, enabling developers to prototype and launch solutions in modular blockchains and intelligent asset trading.
