🧠 About This Online Hackathon

We’ve been traveling the world—from Rio to Warsaw—connecting with the best devs, creators, founders, and dreamers building the future of fan experiences and SportFi.

Now, we're flipping the format. This isn’t just a hackathon. This is a vibe-first build jam for anyone with an idea, energy, or code to shape the next wave of SportFi.

Whether you're a solo builder, a DAO designer, a meme economist, or a product thinker — you’re welcome here. No gatekeeping. Just shipping.

This hackathon is not just for developers. We invite:

• Designers, storytellers, data nerds
• Creators, meme lords, AI whisperers
• Devs who love to ship weird, useful, or beautiful things
• Web3 beginners with bold ideas
• Builders that have ideas but no technical skills; don't worry, you will get a free Replit Core code to kickstart your coding agent career.
