Build-A-Bull is a hackathon to create consumer-friendly applications using the power and scalability of the Algorand blockchain. Spanning four weeks, the hackathon offers an opportunity for committed developers and entrepreneurs to conceive a business concept, accelerate it though the development phase, and to ultimately present a final product to a panel of expert judges. Throughout the process, participants will receive matchmaking, tooling, support, and mentorship to help bring their ideas to life. 

“With Build-A-Bull, we expect to attract a new wave of promising builders to come into the Algorand ecosystem,” says Ryan Terribilini, EVP of Algorand Ventures. “We are looking for high-potential, investible startups and founders to bring innovative projects to the Algorand blockchain, and we are confident that the resources and exposure of participating in Build-A-Bull will catalyze this next generation of Algorand builders.” 

The hackathon includes five tracks:

  • Defi, presented by Circle
  • Gaming, presented by Unity
  • Consumer, presented by Amazon Web Services (AWS)
  • Interoperability, presented by Wormhole
  • Impact, presented by Algorand Foundation 

The winner of each track will receive $25,000 and will be invited to pitch to investors on a ‘demo day,’ with a public on-chain vote determining an additional $10,000 Grand Prize, as well as $25,000 in AWS credits. The second and third-place winner of each track will receive $10,000 and $5,000 respectively. A bonus University Prize of $5,000 will be awarded by the judges. 

The judging panel is comprised of industry leaders and investors including QCP Capital, DWF Ventures, and Blockchain Capital. 

Projects will be evaluated by the following criteria: the skillset and strength of the team, the design and interface of the project, the quality of the pitch, and the viability of market adoption.
