Blockstream Turin Simplicity Hackathon

Question About judging Criteria and Project Evaluation

Hi, thanks again for organizing the hackathon.

I wanted to ask for some clarification regarding the judging criteria/results. I noticed some projects with fully working Liquid-compatible financial implementations and confirmed testnet interactions did not place, while other projects with incomplete on-chain functionality ranked very highly.

I’m genuinely trying to understand how the judging weighted:

- financial utility,
- Liquid compatibility,
- implementation completeness,
- and technical innovation.

This isn’t meant negatively I’m mainly asking so I can better understand how to approach future Simplicity ecosystem hackathons and improve as a builder.

Thanks again for the event.
