We’re excited to announce the Hyperliquid Community Hackathon — a community organized, 4-week global online event with the core mission of growing the ecosystem to house all of finance.
Whether you’re a developer, designer, researcher, artist, community organizer, or general contributor, we invite you all to be part of the future.
At its core, this hackathon is about building for the good of the ecosystem. Hyperliquid is for the people, so we collectively shape its future. This hackathon is for projects that are open, composable, and useful to everyone. From tooling and infrastructure to docs, content, or coordination mechanisms, the goal is to grow the pie.
The hackathon features three tracks:
🛠 Public goods: Tools, libraries, and infrastructure that benefit the entire Hyperliquid community.
🚀 Hyperliquid Frontier: Novel applications, extending existing protocols, and community building that grows the Hyperliquid ecosystem.
🧪 Precompile + CoreWriter Exploration: Experiment with precompiles and corewriter and push the boundaries of what’s possible on Hyperliquid.
In addition to the main tracks, sponsors will be offering bounties, additional tasks and challenges with their own prize pools. More details will be announced.
The hackathon officially kicks off on July 28th and will be hosted on TaiKai. Once live, you’ll be able to register your team, submit projects, and use TaiKai’s matchmaking feature to find and connect with other builders.
We’ll start things off with a Kickoff Call on July 28 where we’ll walk through the hackathon format, tracks, prizes, and how to get started. Follow @hl_hackathon for details on how to join the call.
Throughout the second week, we’ll host technical workshops to accelerate and level up your project. Follow @hl_hackathon for details on how to attend the workshops.
We will be using the Hyperliquid Discord as our main discussion platform for builders and projects.
Finally, the submission deadline is August 22, and winners will be announced soon after. In addition to the prize pool, winners will get access to our growth partners: a network of VCs, domain experts, and ecosystem resources that will help take your project to the next level.
Here’s how to prepare:
Create your account on TaiKai so you’re ready for matchmaking when registration opens.
Follow @hl_hackathon for announcements, updates, information.
Join the Hyperliquid Discord and hop into the #builders channel. This is the main space to share project ideas, ask questions, and learn from other Hyperliquid builders.
To help get the ideas flowing, here are some community requested projects and examples the ecosystem could benefit from:
Full-featured RPC for EVM
HyperCore MultiSig frontend
ERC4337 Bundler
DAO tooling
Improved Documentation
Push notification using the node info endpoint
Implement the Hyperliquid python SDK in other languages (e.g. SWIFT)

RWA
Core<>EVM arbitrage
Core<>EVM flash loans
This is your opportunity to help build the future of finance.
Whether you’re shipping your first smart contract or designing the next paradigm in tokenomics, there’s a place for you here.
Let’s build the ecosystem to house all of finance, together.
