Weekly Hackathon Banner

The first self-sustaining weekly hackathon on the internet.

Each week, all trading fees from $hackathon are awarded to one hacker, after some sort of processing that we need to agree on.

The idea is for that process to be a simple and transparent way to reward the best builders.

To create a positive feedback loop between them, token traders, and the community.

🌟 What is this?

$hackathon is a community experiment that creates a flywheel between builders and token holders. By participating in $hackathon trading, you're directly funding the next generation of onchain builders.

How it works:

  1. Every Thursday at 23:59 UTC, a new challenge is announced
  2. Builders have one week to create something amazing
  3. Winner takes ALL trading fees accumulated during that week, after some processing that will always be open source
  4. Rinse and repeat - forever
