Event Description

Welcome to the Midnight Hackathon! Join us from November 13-25 for a weekend of creating solutions that put users back in control of their personal data. It's clear the Midnight community is just getting started — we've had 1,500 builder sign up for the previous events — and this is your chance to join the growing movement!

No blockchain experience? No problem.
You don't need to be a web3 veteran to participate. Whether you're writing your very first lines of code or have built dozens of dApps, this hackathon is all about creative, practical ideas. Even a simple, straightforward app can have a massive impact when it’s built to protect everyday user privacy. At our previous Midnight Hackathons, half of our winners had never built in the ecosystem before.

Are you ready to build the future of digital privacy? Stay tuned for more details.
