The six winners of the ICON TX Challenge (a.k.a “ICON’s Got Talent”) have finally been announced.
The ICON TX challenge, which started on June 3rd, has been proven a total success by generating 60M+ transactions in just 24 days. Additionally, 20 meaningful blockchain-based services were built on the ICON Network during this period. One highlight of note: ICON transactions actually exceeded those of Ethereum on June 5th and 6th — by well over half a million transactions on the second day of their record.
Out of 20 participating teams, 6 final winners were selected by a team of judges with representatives from the ICON team, accelerators and crypto funds.
Here are the 6 final winners who will receive the grand prize of 60,000 ICX Prize each:
