What to Build

Build a practical Web3 prototype under one of the two official tracks:

• Track 1: Payments and Financial Infrastructure
  Payment flows, merchant tools, settlement, treasury, remittance, or other solutions that improve how value moves and financial operations are managed.
• Track 2: Web3 Applications, AI Agents and Real-World Use Cases
  AI-powered Web3 applications, agentic workflows, intelligent on-chain tools, or user-facing products that address real-world needs.

Projects should solve a clear problem and demonstrate strong product and technical thinking.

Team Types

There is no fixed limit on team size. Participants may enter individually or form a team of any size.

• Student Group: All team members must be current students. Proof of student status may be required. Eligible teams will be considered for dedicated student awards.
• Public Group: Open to all other eligible teams, including mixed student and non-student teams.
