I encourage any students reading this: While this seems like a great opportunity for some, and not so for others, I urge you to think it over yourself first.

Yes, this could actually be a very good opportunity for the right student to get an internship/possible job in a market that will be extremely hot. It it's a good way for BoE to find students that want to get involved in this industry. On the other side, please know that this is not the only way. The community in many growing blockchains is very good. There are many resources that are available and free for you to explore your idea and create something new that is actually YOURS. I'm not saying you should try and do something on your own out of school, it is perfectly okay to get a regular job, and this might be what you want. However it is also perfectly okay for you to not participate and expand on your idea on your own or with partners. There are/will be many opportunities and positions out there in this industry in the near future, this is not your only option. EDIT: Another interesting point is the time frame which this challenge is allowing. I do not know when it was announced, but I'm assuming based on the timer that, when it started, the time given is 24 hours. It seems odd to me. This is a challenge that should be given more time, especially given how many students are wrapping up their semester and will be heavily involved in projects/finals right now.
