From November 28 to December 5, the Web3Souls Hackathon will be held in the Metaverse. Its participants will get hands-on experience with the Decentralized Society concept (DeSoc).
About the Web3Souls Hackathon

- meetups;
- guided tours to the Metaverse;
- community contests;
- prizes and after-party in the Metaverse.
About DeSoc and SBT
Soulbound Tokens (SBT) are non-transferable tokens representing a person’s identity using blockchain technology. They allow individuals to verify all of their information — their education, work history, credit score, medical history, professional certifications, etc. The wallets that store or issue these tokens are called “Souls”. Souls and SBT will allow people to build a verifiable Web3 digital reputation based on their past actions and experiences.
Why DeSoc
Vitalik Buterin, along with his supporters, published a white paper entitled “Decentralized Society: Finding Web3’s Soul” early this May. Thus, Buterin invites each person to create a crypto-wallet, which marks this person and his “Soul”. As a result, a person’s reputation can be measured by SBT tokens and their transaction history.

They also organize hackathons that help specialists get practice in the latest tech trends. And the Web3Souls Hackathon is one of such hackathons.
