What a thrill this morning to wake up and see I've made it to a runner-up state! Thank you for the opportunity to learn more about web monetization and to think about tooling around it for backend developers. I went from not hearing about it before this to knowing a bit more as a result! :)

Congrats to the winners and all the runners-up!

Just a quick plug... if you enjoyed hacking on ideas around Web Monetization, you might be interested in the hackathon just starting today around PayID, which is in the same sort of area of making payments easier.

Congrats to all winners, runners up, and participants!!

I was aware I did not have enough time or the chops to build something original or meaningful enough to win but I participated anyway and it was fun! Learned & shipped new things I would not have known & built otherwise. 🙌🏽

Hey - you can have my runners up voucher if you want! Unfortunately the way the DEV store is set up the voucher wont cover the shipping cost though so you'd have to pay that yourself.
