FAQs

We are very excited about the event which is happening at HackerEarth for your feasibility.

How many people can be in a team?
Teams of up to 5 people are allowed. There are no restrictions on who can be in a team, so feel free to mix and match skill levels and connect with other participants.
I’m new to development. What will my experience be like?
Everyone starts somewhere, and even though you might find some things you don’t understand along the way, remember that it’s all part of the learning process. Hop on our Discord channel to connect with other developers, take part in mentor sessions to clarify your views, and try building something for the heck of it. Learning is a continuous process.
I’m a veteran developer. Will this be a waste of time?
Unblock 2021 is about discussing topics with industry experts from around the world and creating products that people value. These are some of the most valuable inputs for influential developers. Blockchain is a small space with huge market potential. There aren’t as many experienced developers, giving you the opportunity to make your mark.
