<h2 id="header-0">Booster is Back, again!</h2>
<p>Everyone's favorite banana-themed coding competition has returned for its third time 'round. Announcing <strong>Booster 3</strong>, a 6-week hackathon for developers to create or maintain projects in the BANANO ecosystem.</p>
<p></p><img src="https://academy-public.coinmarketcap.com/srd-optimized-uploads/3d67c157d6624c4e8e2f19a29836cedb.png">
<p>Do you have an idea for a project you've been wanting to start? Do you maintain an existing project? Do you want to collaborate with other developers who love BANANO? This is the competition for you!</p>
<h2 id="header-1">Project Categories</h2>
<p>There will be <strong>2</strong> categories for submissions:</p>
<h4>1. New Projects</h4>
<p>Each year, there are projects created that either strengthen or expand the BANANO ecosystem; this category includes anything coding-related that hasn’t been released to the public yet. &nbsp;Check out the past <a href="https://banano.cc/blog/banano-booster-winner-announcement" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Booster 1</a> &nbsp;&amp; <a href="https://banano.cc/blog/booster2-winners-announcement" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Booster 2</a> winners for inspiration!</p>
<h4>2. Existing Projects</h4>
<p>If you're maintaining, forking, expanding, or fixing bugs for an existing project, this category will primarily be judged on the question of "<em>What has changed since last Booster</em>?"</p>
<p>BANANO has an expansive open-source community with many projects that welcome contributors! If you want to work on an existing project that you do not own, be sure to <strong>contact the repository owner </strong>before starting any work.</p>
<h2 id="header-2">Prize Pool</h2>
<p>The prize pool will consist of <strong>750K BAN</strong> minimum! Winners from each category will receive the following amounts:</p>
<p><strong>1st</strong> place: 150K BAN (20% of prize pool)</p>
<p><strong>2nd</strong> place: 135K BAN (18%)</p>
<p><strong>3rd</strong> place: 120K BAN (16%)</p>

<p><strong>5th</strong> place: 75K BAN (10%)</p>

<h2 id="header-3">Prize Pool Donations</h2>
<p>If you would like to support the development of new &amp; existing projects through Booster, donations to the address above <strong>will be matched</strong> 1:1 up to <strong>125K</strong> BAN. &nbsp;</p>
<p>All contributions will be distributed proportionally using the prize rules above.</p>
