BitRun Hackathon, co-hosted and supported by BitMart Exchange, a premier global digital asset trading platform, was officially launched on October 26, 2018 in Changning, Shanghai. The competition brought together hundreds of blockchain enthusiasts across the country. A 48-hour crazy hackathon for blockchain enthusiasts and researchers has just begun.
Hackathon, the marathon for programming, was born in 1999. It is a technological innovation that was originated in the United States and quickly swept the world. Its essence is for a group of outstanding developers to get together and do what they want in the way they want it. The entire programming process posts almost no limits or directions. Thus it is called "the world's coolest developer activity."

Hosted by BitRun, supported by BitMart and Nervos, the competition was packed and filled with coders who are enthusiastic and ready to show their algorithms.
This two-day hackathon has attracted lots of domestic talents to join, including students from top universities in China, such as Shanghai University of Technology, Zhejiang Gongshang University, Shanghai Jiaotong University, Tongji University, Central University of Finance and Economics, Zhejiang University and many other universities.
