Solana hackathons

The bear is here. It’s time to fight back.

The Solana Foundation is excited to announce Grizzlython, an online, global Solana hackathon with $5 million in prizes and seed funding. Grizzlython, the seventh Solana hackathon, will run Feb. 2 - March 14, and is open to builders around the globe.Solana hackathons are competitions that enable members of the Solana community to bring their ideas to life and then to market. This sprint helps builders kickstart their projects and turn them into growing, fundable companies. The previous Solana Hackathon, Solana Summer Camp, saw nearly 18,000 participants submit 750 projects. Cumulatively, Solana hackathon projects have raised over $600m in venture funding.Builders will be able to participate in a full slate of Grizzlython programming, including office hours with the Solana Foundation Developer Relations Team, Solana Hacker Houses in Istanbul and Melbourne, Twitter spaces, Twitch streams, and more. Participants will also be able to meet IRL at community-run coworking spaces in Singapore, Berlin, Salt Lake City, Ho Chi Minh City, Bangalore, Delhi, and Melbourne.
