Overview

A series of coding challenges to sharpen your skills.


Hiro Hacks are monthly hackathons designed to bring together the most innovative builders in the Stacks ecosystem. Each month features a unique theme, challenging you to stretch your creativity, show off your skills, and learn from other devs in the process.

Have fun. Build something new. Compete against other devs for a scholarship to Bitcoin 2025 in Las Vegas this May (scroll down for details).

To submit your projects each month, complete this form before midnight ET on the last day of that month's hack.

Prizes

For March's hack, we will be awarding 2 developer scholarships to 2 different winners. Each developer scholarship includes hotel accommodations, a $1,000 travel stipend, and tickets to Bitcoin 2025 in Las Vegas this May.

Code your way to Vegas and spend time with Stacks builders while diving into the zany world of the biggest Bitcoin conference of the year.
