Request for Hackers

This hackathon is meant to spur your creativity. While we have developed a few initial prompts, we hope to see projects that are not covered below.

  • Self-Driving Money: The holy grail of fintech has been “self-driving money”. Develop a product that utilizes AI to automate personal finance management, enabling money to autonomously invest, save, and spend based on the user's financial goals and preferences.

  • Identity & fraud for agents: Payments on the internet has always been adversarial. How will we ensure proper authorization for agents? How will we ensure that agents are who they say they are? What does the Visa for agents look like? Develop a product that addresses these questions.

  • Micropayments: Stablecoins offer a cheaper global payment method that might enable new micropayment-based use cases with agents. Develop a product that leverages stablecoins to address the unique needs of agentic payments.

  • Optimizing B2B Payments: Create a solution to address and reduce settlement times in B2B payments, leveraging AI and stablecoins to enhance efficiency, transparency, and security in transaction processes.

  • AI commerce marketplace: Design a system that allows AI agents to autonomously procure funds, make payments, and transact with each other.

  • None of the above: If none of these prompts are of interest, bring your best idea.
