East Asia is a region with a large number of EVM developers with worldwide potential to find new ecosystem to apply their skills. 

We propose the **FIRST EVER hackathon in East Asia** to unite this potential and promote the Substrate technology.

The layout of this hackathon will combine few components we had during [Sub0 2022](https://sub0.polkadot.network/), 

such as Starters & Builders Spaces, to host various workshops for developers who are new to Substrate/Polkadot and also for those who already have experience with.

The HackaDOT 2023, will be the offcial side event of [Buidl Asia 2023](https://www.buidl.asia/) and be held both online(Phase#1) and offline(Phase#2). 

In total 2.5 months of execution, from 13 March to 28 May 2023 (30 days of registration, 30 days Pre-online hackathon, 3 days of live-hackathon and 4 days for judging period).

**HackaDOT 2023 aims:**

To promote Substrate as an open source framework for developers in East Asia.

To convert/navigate local developers into Relay/parachain(or even parathread/solochain) Ecosystem.

To showcase how Polkadot live-ecosystem leaders are building the use-cases using our technology.
