Summary

ETHGlobal Paris served as a hub for Web3 innovation, hosting 960+ participants and 321+ project submissions, many of which utilized Chainlink oracle services like the Cross-Chain Interoperability Protocol (CCIP). Seven standout projects were recognized, with $10,000 in Chainlink prizes awarded to those best integrating CCIP and other Chainlink services. Notable projects included CCIP Limit Orders for cross-chain token transactions, Flora App for uncollateralized loans to rural farmers, and Ticketh for a cross-chain ticket reputation protocol. Other winners were Binder, an NFT-matching platform; ETHWaldo, a content creator payment platform linked to social media metrics; NoxFi, a decentralized exchange using zero-knowledge proofs; and Omnichain Governor Standard, a tool for cross-chain DAO interactions. The event highlighted the importance of developers in advancing blockchain and oracle technology, with encouragement to explore Chainlink's services further and participate in future hackathons.
