About the Flow Hackathon

This hackathon is all about building innovative on-chain experiences #onFlow, and reaching mainstream audiences. Thanks to Flow’s frictionless onboarding, on-chain scalability and revolutionary smart contract programming language (Cadence), on-chain experiences don’t need to be limited to a mint. Whether you’re looking to build a mobile game, a DeFi application or building experiences on top of existing apps like NBA TopShot, this hackathon is for you!

Prizes

$500,000 are up for grabs

This hackathon's main track is dedicated to building innovative on-chain logic aimed at a mainstream audience. This means you can build anything you want; your guiding principle should be: would your friends enjoy using this app, even if they don’t know anything about web3?

Main Prizes

$30,000

1st Place

$50,000

3rd Place

$20,000

Finalists will also receive free PRO tickets to Consensus 2023 (worth $1,800 each)

Tracks & Prizes

Building for the mainstream means stretching the boundaries of what a web3 experience can be. Craft beautiful mobile apps, be an early pioneer of Flow's new concept of walletless onboarding, and extend on the vibrant Flow ecosystem for a chance to win big, and make a difference!

Winning Track

Best Mobile Experiences:

$100,000 5 prizes available

Most of web3 is still desktop-first. It’s time that changed - this track is all about meeting the users where they are: on their phones. Whether you’re building a game, digital collectibles or something never before seen, focus on creating a delightful mobile web3 experience that feels native, safe and intuitive.

Best Uses of Walletless Onboarding:

$100,000 5 prizes available

Apps on Flow can create onboarding experiences that are familiar and accessible to users that are new to Web3: signup via email/social identity, purchasing NFTs using credit cards, and completely abstracting away the presence of the underlying blockchain. Once a user is ready for a self-custody experience, apps can deliver a seamless transition to real ownership through a new concept on Flow called hybrid custody. This is mostly uncharted territory, so use this hackathon as an opportunity to explore what this experience should be like!

Extending the Ecosystem:

$100,000 5 prizes available

Smart contracts make it possible to extend existing experiences or build entirely new experiences on top of existing ones. This composability is one of the most powerful features of building on-chain logic on Flow. This track is dedicated to any app extending or building on existing Flow ecosystem projects.
