MultiversX and Helios Staking Join Hands For Web3 Collabathon; Unveil Helios Connect dApp for Unified Cross-Chain Identity Management
MultiversX (EGLD), the leading internet scale blockchain known for its sharding technology, announced its support to the Helios Collabathon conducted by Helios Staking, to redefine product building through an effort of collaboration over competition. Jointly supported by the MultiversX Foundation, Hatom, XOXNO, and the Injective Foundation, the first-of-its-kind Collabathon brought together 14 top-level Web3 builders from across the world with skills ranging from coding to marketing and business development, to solve pressing industry challenges related to singular user identity across multiple blockchains.
With a background in building 11 different companies and winning 15 hackathons, the Collabathon’s participants deployed a fully-functioning MVP of Helios Connect in 8 days, with a clean interface and Smart Contracts deployed on mainnet on both the Injective and MultiversX blockchains. Simultaneously, all content and related documentation were posted to ensure the product has visibility and is usable afterwards, resulting in Helios Connect acquiring active users already.
As a fully open-source product, Helios Connect is a groundbreaking cross-chain wallet verification and identity dApp, allowing users to create a singular, unified identity across multiple blockchains, addressing a significant challenge of User Fragmentation in the decentralized ecosystem. By simplifying and securing identity management, Helios Connect is poised to become a building block for a plethora of applications that strengthen connections between different ecosystems.
Alongside building the product, the Collabathon hosted networking events and four workshops, hosted by Robert Sasu (Core developer of MultiversX), Joan (Product Manager of Injective Labs), Alex Radu (CEO of Astrarizon), and Sergi & Jose (Founders of Moonlorian).
Robert Sasu, Core Developer of MultiversX, who supported the Collabathon on-site, shared his thoughts: “I am truly impressed by how much the team accomplished in just 10 days, proving how this Collabathon can bring viable products with real use cases to market whilst sparking innovation between communities.”
Kevin Lydon, Co-founder and Managing Director of Helios Staking shared his excitement: “The Helios Collabathon has proven to be a huge success, not only in achieving our technological goals but also in creating a spirit of collaboration. We are looking forward to developing the concept further and pushing the boundaries of what is currently thought possible.”
Open Source For The Community
In a commitment to supporting innovation, Helios Connect’s open-source feature paves the way for integrated cross-chain use cases, such as cross-chain identity management. This approach is designed to provide a platform where cross-chain products and services can grow and thrive, enabling the wider Web3 ecosystem to benefit from this cutting-edge technology.
Helios Connect will serve as a foundational tool that many applications can be built on top of, such as cross-chain governance applications, tax tooling, ticketing, an anti-scam scanner and more.
The MultiversX Foundation continues to support teams and initiatives that are at the forefront of innovation to accelerate blockchain adoption and ecosystem growth by creating meaningful products that benefit the entire Web3 ecosystem.

Soulbound to Unveil New Web3 Livestreaming Platform at TwitchCon 2024
Soulbound — a Web3 livestreaming platform, will take center stage at TwitchCon 2024 in San Diego. The company will showcase how blockchain technology can transform the livestreaming experience for gamers, streamers, and developers. Backed by major investors including Animoca Brands, NGC Ventures, and Big Brain Holdings, Soulbound will introduce its groundbreaking platform to a global audience of gaming enthusiasts at this prestigious event.
TwitchCon, organized by a video livestreaming service Twitch, will be held on September 20-22, 2024. Known for celebrating all things gaming and streaming, TwitchCon is the perfect stage for Soulbound to demonstrate the power of decentralized technology. The platform aims to provide gamers and content creators with tools to connect, compete, and earn in a transparent and secure Web3 environment. Game studios can also benefit from access to an engaged Web3 gaming community, offering new ways to boost visibility and drive participation.
Soulbound’s Web3 livestreaming platform represents a significant leap in how content creators and gamers can interact with their audiences. Leveraging blockchain, Soulbound introduces features like stream-to-earn, an NFT sticker marketplace, and a prediction market, making users engage more deeply with the content while generating revenue. These blockchain-powered mechanisms create transparent and automated interactions and allow streamers to monetize their activities fairly and efficiently.
Through the platform’s bounty system, game developers can set up prize pools for streamers. Developers deposit funds into a smart contract, coming up with streaming challenges that incentivize participation. Bounty Hunters, or streamers, participate in these challenges over a set period, with rewards distributed based on audience size and time streamed. This transparent mechanism ensures that streamers are compensated proportionally, cultivating a fair and competitive environment.
With a unique prediction market feature viewers can place bets on games or individual players, which generates additional revenue for streamers. This option enhances viewer engagement while allowing streamers to boost their earnings in new, dynamic ways.
Soulbound’s appearance at TwitchCon 2024 in San Diego follows its successful participation at TwitchCon Europe, which was held at the Rotterdam Ahoy in Rotterdam, Netherlands, on June 29-30, 2024. The company’s presentation in Europe introduced thousands of gaming enthusiasts to the exciting possibilities of Web3 livestreaming, and the platform is now poised to capture even more attention in San Diego.
