Origins Hackathon Prize Ceremony

The Origins prize ceremony concludes the TOKEN2049 Origins hackathon in Singapore. The organizer's 6-8 October program gives builders 36 hours to develop a working product, receive mentorship and demo on the TOKEN2049 stage at Marina Bay Sands.

The organizer lists a $150,000 prize pool. Tracks include agentic commerce on Cardano, workflows using the Chainlink Runtime Environment, multichain infrastructure with NOWNodes, and applications built on Solana. Teams compete for prizes, grants and accelerator opportunities, and standout teams pitch for funding and global recognition.

Origins is free, including food, drinks and full access to the TOKEN2049 conference. Physical attendance at Marina Bay Sands is required for the full 36 hours; remote participation is not offered. Teams may have up to four members, and solo applicants are welcome. Applications opened on 19 August with participants announced on 28 September.

Registrations opened on 19 August with an application deadline of 18 September and participants announced on 28 September, ahead of the 6-8 October hackathon.

To keep the competition fair, all project work must begin after the official hacking period starts. Participants may brainstorm ideas in advance, but no code, designs or prototypes before kickoff. The venue provides rest and chill-out spaces on a first-come, first-served basis.
