About devGames 2025

Sponsor protocols will judge and award submissions from devs across the entire blockchain ecosystem. Participating devs will have a chance to showcase their work to multiple projects & protocols and compete for prizes and glory all while building persistent reputation, connections and value for the work they’re doing.

How it Works

Note: These are the broad strokes of how we are currently thinking about this, more details are forthcoming and some specifics may be changed or updated based on community/sponsor feedback.

  • devGames is divided into 10 x 2 week rounds with a final 4 week Championship round.
  • Each round, the feature sponsor will issue a hackathon challenge on JokeRace, along with criteria and prizes.
  • Verified devs will build & submit their projects. [See: How to become a verified dev]
  • Each sponsor will put forward a judge to sit on the evaluation panel.
  • The evaluation panel will judge submissions for each 2 week cycle.
  • Winners will receive prizes, BuildProof reputation attestations and entry into the final Championship round.
  • The final ‘Championship Round’ will run for the final 4 weeks
  • Winners from previous rounds will compete in an open, cross-chain 4 week hackathon for the Grand Prize.
  • Projects can be built on any participating partner chain.
  • The final judging phase will be entirely community based.
