[MagicBlock Workshop]: Build Private dApps & Payments on Solana

​Build Private dApps & Payments on Solana

​Privacy isn’t a feature; it’s the next frontier.

​As part of Solana Network State [Spring 2026], MagicBlock is sponsoring a $5,000 track prize for teams building privacy-first applications and payment systems on Solana.

​Join Andy & Jonas (DevRel @ MagicBlock) for a hands-on session on how to design and ship apps that protect user data, without sacrificing speed, composability, or UX.

​💡 What you’ll learn

​• How to design private payment flows on Solana
• Patterns for shielded balances & sensitive user data
• Building x402-style pay-per-use APIs for autonomous agents
• Real-world architectures for machine-to-machine payments (MPP)
• Key tradeoffs: privacy vs UX vs composability

​🧠 Why this matters

​Most onchain apps today are fully transparent - great for verification, but limiting for real-world use cases.

​Privacy unlocks:

• ​consumer applications

• ​AI agent economies

• ​enterprise & financial use cases

​👉 This is one of the most underbuilt, high-upside areas in the Solana ecosystem right now.

​🛠️ Who this is for

​• Developers building on Solana
• Founders exploring payments, monetization, or AI agents
• Teams participating in the Frontier hackathon
• Anyone looking to build something differentiated (and fundable)
