Spotlight across Akash’s channels
Why is Akash Different?
Most Hacktoberfest events focus on code contributors alone. We reward both code contributors and project creators, because it takes a village (and a couple of rebels) to grow the open, decentralized cloud.
Heads Up on Swag & Shipping
Physical goodies (T-shirts, gaming mice, keyboards) ship within India.
Global participants? You get the same value in AKT tokens no waiting, just winning.
Why? Because we’d rather give full value straight to you, instead of capping rewards by spending on shipping and logistics. More AKT for contributors, more power to builders!
Need a hand?
Tons of “good first issue” tags for Hacktoberfest newbies
Project ideas and live help on Discord
Let’s build the future of cloud together and have a little fun while we’re at it.
Ready? Register now. Get building. See you in the Akash supercloud! 🚀
