Quest into the **Polyverse**, Polymer's Testnet!

The Polyverse embodies Polymer’s commitment to innovation, security, and scalability to the interoperability landscape. Polymer brings together developers, rollup and infrastructure operators to explore, build, and contribute towards the _Interchain_ thesis.

As an initiative to honor developers instrumental to Ethereum's scalability via Layer-2 infra, cross-chain application development, and advancing IBC in the Cosmos ecosystem, we're offering rewards for their past contributions.

### Polymer HUB
Polymer Hub is the first Layer 2 natively built for interoperability, connecting Ethereum’s growing rollup ecosystem using Inter-Blockchain Communication protocol. Polymer’s initial focus is to provide the developer community with tools to connect the Superchain and permissionlessly add new OP stack rollups to the wider Superchain network. The Polymer Hub brings IBC as the centerpiece of the superchain and helps rollups communicate with a common messaging standard. In order to better understand and test out IBC’s capabilities, welcome Polyverse Phase 1.

# Phase 1 Guidelines

The Polyverse presents you with Phase 1 and the initial set of 3 quests. Each quest will provide guidance for some exciting use cases for the Polymer community. However, these quests truly are meant for guidance and are optional, Polymer welcomes innovation!

If you have an exciting use case, feel free to propose it [here](https://github.com/polymerdevs/PIT-Phase-1/issues/16) or register yourself and the idea [here](https://forms.gle/eCG4hEN6R21gc9z89) to continue building in stealth.

## Quests Overview 
All our quests or use cases are presented as [issues](https://github.com/polymerdevs/PIT-Phase-1/issues) under specific labels for better categorization.

### 1. Create a cross-chain dApp using IBC (with custom or universal channels).
**Label: [dApp development](https://github.com/polymerdevs/PIT-Phase-1/issues?q=is:issue+is:open+sort:relevance-desc+label:%22dApp+development%22)**

We will be exploring application development with IBC as a messaging standard.

One of the great things of IBC is its ability to allow developers to build their own bridge by having their independent communication channels that no other application can use. This enables vastly reduced risk between the various instances of an application on different chains.

Some quests help you understand IBC features and how they improve the UX for known use cases (like token bridging) and help you imagine the realm of possibilities for future developments.

Given this category is broad, we will be diving it further with additional labels as and when required like [token bridging](https://github.com/polymerdevs/PIT-Phase-1/issues?q=is:issue+is:open+sort:relevance-desc+label:%22token+bridging%22) label.

### 2. Contribute to implementing the IBC standards in Solidity or create your own standard.
**Label: [IBC Solidity](https://github.com/polymerdevs/PIT-Phase-1/issues?q=is:issue+is:open+label:%22IBC+Solidity%22)**

IBC is a well documented and battle-tested protocol with many developers contributing code/standards to improve its developer experience and help other applications build off of their work. The Polyverse empowers further contributions, there are a few IBC standards Polymer thinks can be used by a wide variety of applications.

### 3. Contribute to building Polymer developer tooling ecosystem.
**Label: [developer tooling](https://github.com/polymerdevs/PIT-Phase-1/issues?q=is:issue+is:open+label:%22developer+tooling%22)**

Help build a world class Developer experience, for developer by developers.

As Cosmoethereum is in its early stages, there's a wealth of opportunities to contribute to its developer tooling. Whether it's creating a ready-to-deploy SDK for vIBC smart contracts facilitating new rollups connecting to Polymer, or improving the IBC explorer, your contributions can make a significant difference!

We will be expanding the quest categories as we reveal more partners taking part in our testnet.
