Welcome to the EthGlobal Taipei Hackathon 2025. We are excited to get you started on Saga.

Overview

Saga is a customizable EVM-compatible L1 provider platform (an L1 to launch L1s). You can instantly create your new L1 with a native token and deploy a solidity smart contract to get started in under 5 minutes.

Getting Started

First things first, lets get you set up with a shiny new chain. Reach out to Jonathan Pereira (TG: @Dejen) to get access to your exclusive ETH Taipei Hackathon Code. Once you have the code, you are ready to launch your chain.

Launch your L1 Chain

Using the ETH Taipei Hackathon Code, follow the guidelines shown in this guide.

Deploying Smart Contracts on your Chain

Your L1 chain is EVM compatible. Any smart contracts written in solidity (use v0.8.18 for smoothest experience) should deploy seamlessly on your chain. Here is a guide to refer.

Bridging Tokens from EVM to your Chain

With Liquidity Integration Layer, you can bridge your tokens from any EVM compatible chain (Ethereum, Polygon, Base) to your chain using Squid Router. Here is a builders guide to enable bridging of assets.
