Dar Blockchain Collaborates with NEAR Protocol to Advance Web3 Innovation in Africa

Dar Blockchain, a pivotal hub for Web 3.0 advancement across the Middle East and Africa (MENA) region, has forged a strategic alliance with the NEAR blockchain protocol, heralding a new era of innovation in the African Web3 landscape. Educational Empowerment for Developers In a concerted effort to bolster the developer community in North Africa, Dar Blockchain has outlined its initial initiatives, aiming to cultivate a vibrant ecosystem of skilled developers. Key among these efforts is the creation of a series of technical instructional videos in Arabic and French. These resources are meticulously designed to facilitate developers’ entry into the Web3 domain, equipping them with essential knowledge and tools to actively engage in the ecosystem and foster its expansion. Comprehensive Educational Endeavor Dar Blockchain envisions a comprehensive educational framework that delves deep into the core principles and advanced functionalities of the NEAR Protocol. Through these educational resources, developers will gain a profound understanding of the protocol’s intricacies, fostering a conducive environment for active involvement in the NEAR ecosystem. Engagement through Interactive Sessions The inaugural set of activities encompasses a diverse array of educational materials and interactive sessions tailored to engage developers effectively. This includes the production of detailed developer-centric videos, engaging Ask Me Anything (AMA) sessions conducted in Arabic and French, as well as social media activations aimed at fostering community engagement. Additionally, specialized developer onboarding programs will be instituted to streamline the entry of newcomers into the Web3 landscape.

This partnership bore fruit with the successful culmination of the Africa Hedera hackathon in Tunisia. Amidst stiff competition, three winning projects emerged, spanning diverse domains such as decentralized finance (DeFi), decentralized autonomous organizations (DAOs), and the burgeoning Metaverse/NFT landscape. This event showcased the ingenuity and potential of African innovators, with participants hailing from 20 teams across 9 African countries. 🇹🇳 NORTH AFRICA | Here Are The Winners of the Inaugural African Hedera Hackathon in #Tunisia The aim of the Hackathon, backed by the Hedera Network, is to boost the adoption and understanding of Distributed Ledger Technology (DLT) in the country.
