DoraHacks GHS 2021 is coming back! We're running 15-20 offline hackathons in China, US and Europe in 2020-2021 despite the craziness of Covid-19. We're actively running offline blockchain hackathons in China recently. Our first Hackathon was DoraHacks x Binance Smart Chain Defi Hackathon in Beijing, November 14th-15th where 91 hackers created 17 new Defi Projects.

The initial proposal can be found here: https://polkadot.polkassembly.io/post/193

- Problem Statement: The Polkadot ecosystem is plagued by scams, posing a risk to users. The intended audience is the Polkadot community, including both individuals and companies.
- Significance: The current anti-scam initiatives are limited in scope, focusing only on scam sites and overlooking other aspects of scam prevention.
- Proposed Solution: The proposal aims to create a comprehensive, community-driven solution to fight scams. This includes creating child bounties that cover various aspects of the anti-scam response, with the goal of moving as much of the process on-chain as possible.
- Expected Outcomes: The initiative is expected to enhance user safety, raise awareness about scams, and evolve into an anti-scam umbrella for the broader Polkadot ecosystem. The rewards for the bounties may change based on feedback and market conditions.
