The project created a $5,000 prize pool, and its goal is to educate users on its Web3-oriented, as it believes that the future of Web3 depends on the users’ education and knowledge of it.

Details about the contest

Oasis shared more about the terms of the contest in a separate blog post published on Medium. The announcement revealed that the project is counting on its knowledgeable community members to create step-by-step tutorials that would educate others on how to use its network.

The contest itself started on July 8th and it will last until September 8th, giving users two whole months to create their tutorials in nearly any form they wish, be it video, PPT, or PDF. The topic can be pretty much anything regarding Oasis Network and its aspects.

After the contest ends, the project will review the submissions and select the top 10 tutorials that will receive $300 in USDT/ROSE, while the top 3 will receive $1,000 in USDT/ROSE.

Oasis also noted that the point is not to simply provide educational content, but also to explain some aspects and concepts that newcomers to the crypto industry and Oasis itself might struggle to understand. Also, it pointed out that the best tutorials will make an appearance on the official Oasis channels, and become a part of the project’s documentation.

What are the rules?

Oasis made it pretty clear what the users need to do and what are the rules of the contest. The idea is to build an accurate, comprehensive, step-by-step tutorial that would explain how to use a certain feature, dApp, or service within the Oasis ecosystem. The tutorial needs to fit under one of the outlined categories, and submissions need to have an introduction that will explain the tutorial’s purpose, and include links to existing tutorials, references, and API documentation. Wherever it is applicable, the participants should also include code examples.

If participants decide to make a video, it needs to be a quality one and at least 5 minutes long. Only submissions written and/or recorded in English will be accepted, and all images, video footage, and other aspects included need to be clear.

Finally, the project noted that all submissions will be judged based on originality, simplicity, creativity, accuracy, practical implementation, and ease of understanding.

As for the categories that the submissions must fit into, those include tutorials on why Oasis has native support for rollups, how to set up a validator node, how to set up an EVM, how to run a ParaTime node, Oasis network architecture overview, setting up a wallet, staking rose, and moving funds between the consensus layer and the EMerald Paratime, using DeFi on Oasis via Wormhole Bridge and YuzuSwap or Fountain, trading NFTs on MetaMirror, participating in minting events, and launching an NFT collection using MetaMirror MLaunch.
