Preparing the event

It started in the end of our second hackathon, when we finished our second (large) meetup in Rostov (October 2017). We plan to make middle-size hackathon to test the possibility of making crypto-hackathon in small city, such as our Rostov-on-Don.

The registration for the event started in the beginning of december. We thought we could make the event in the December, but we got a little amount of registrations, from approx 20 +/- persons or so. So we decided to move the event to january.

In jan, we made a large marketing campaign with our partners, and the event got it's throttle! We fastly got 70 registrations, than 100, 150, 200. The final result on the event was 249 persons. As far as counted our volunteers on first day on Timepad.

Steemit

Our total crypto-prize fund was more than $ 7000. It was huge enough for our Rostov region (approx 3 million persons living in the region); but somehow not large enough to attract more participant teams so we could finish the event with 10 teams or more. So we had to drop out the prizes #6, 7, 8 and 9.

The winners:

  1. (Grand Prize) - 2 ETH: Благо творители (benefactors)
  2. 1ETH: КРИПТОЛЮДИ
  3. 5000 GOLOS: FRAN
  4. 50 LSK: Blockchain`iki
  5. 2 LTC: D-Event
  6. YouTweak.iT

Thank's everyone for your participation. Hope you enjoy and later we will make even larger conference and hackathon!
