There are a lot of Developer bounty options available wherein you can contribute to the Core Tech of Ocean Protocol. Here are some of the following problem statements that you can address.
While the core-tech problem statements are essentially high-intensity projects with a clear alignment for integration with Core Ocean tech, we encourage participants to use the hackathon as a kick-start prior to participation in the main Ocean DAO grants. The best submissions stand a good chance to win even higher grants from Ocean DAO in the upcoming grant cycle of Round14 and henceforth.
Core Ocean tech solutions stand a chance to win grants starting from 3k USD and even higher grant amounts for long-term projects that complete deliverables on a regular basis.
What can you do for the hackathon?
Create a clear DevOPs documentation on Github/Gitbook along with your mission statement on how you intend to address on any problem described in the Core tech problem statements
All the participants and squads will get an opportunity to present their submissions & ideas and receive valuable feedback from the Core Ocean team during the Core-Tech Working group calls that happen every Wednesday at 3pm - 4pm GMT
