OKX Dev Day 2026 takes place Oct 6 - 6, 2026 in Global, SG. OKX Dev Day 2026 on Web3Voyager: an online-to-Singapore hackathon for builders using X Layer and OKX AI, with up to US$100K in prizes.
About the event
OKX Dev Day 2026 is part of a growing calendar of focused AI + Web3, Security gatherings where the people actually building protocols, writing contracts, and shipping products meet in person. The format is designed around real exchange, not broadcast.
Sessions cover practical ground in AI + Web3, Security: how protocols are architected, where security assumptions break down, how governance actually gets implemented, and what the current generation of tooling makes possible that was not feasible a year ago.
The conversation tends to be specific rather than general. This is not an introduction to blockchain. It is a working gathering for people already in it.
What gets covered
Smart contract development and tooling: Foundry, Hardhat, Anchor, and the frameworks being used in production across AI + Web3, Security, with sessions on testing patterns, deployment workflows, and common failure modes.
Protocol design and architecture: How to reason about state, composability, liquidity, and incentive design when building on a shared global ledger.
Security and auditing: Practical approaches to reviewing code, running fuzzing campaigns, setting up bug bounty programs, and learning from recent exploits.
Governance, DAOs, and treasury: How decentralized organizations make decisions at scale, manage protocol upgrades, and allocate community resources without capturing them.
Talks, demos, and the hallway
Teams form at the start and have the full event to build and ship something real. Sponsors post bounties and judges evaluate working prototypes, not decks. The best submissions often attract direct grant offers or follow-on investment.
