Psy: Ascend Hack 2026
Overview
The next generation of the internet demands million-TPS scalability, end-to-end privacy, and true decentralization.
Psy Protocol achieves this through with its PARTH architecture, PoW 2.0, end-to-end zero-knowledge proofs, and programmable identities (SDKeys)—a fair, private, verifiable, and infinitely scalable network for users, developers, and AI agents.
Psy: Ascend Hack 2026 is the launchpad for builders to bring this vision to life:
Open innovation: DeFi, DEX, NFT, RWA, GameFi, infrastructure, and experimental dApps
Technical breakthroughs: protocol design, security, cross-chain, UX, incentive models
Real adoption: take projects from concept → demo → ecosystem impact
活动背景
下一代互联网需要 百万级 TPS、端到端隐私保护、真正去中心化。
Psy Protocol 采用 PARTH 架构、端到端零知识证明、PoW 2.0、可编程身份 (SDKeys)，为用户、开发者与 AI 代理提供一个 公平、隐私、可验证、无限扩展的自由网络。
Psy: Ascend Hack 2025 将是这一愿景的 Builder 启动台：
开放创新：探索 DeFi、DEX、NFT、RWA、GameFi、基础设施与创新型 DApp
技术突破：在协议设计、安全性、跨链互操作、用户体验与激励机制提出突破性方案
落地应用：从概念走向 Demo，推动下一波加密生态迭代
What Can You Build?
Choose your own track—applications, infra, or protocol innovation. Psy encourages builders to go beyond MVPs: design for scalability, security, interoperability, UX, and sustainable incentives.
Example directions:
Apps: NFT launchpads, DEXs, wallets, dApps
Protocol layer: cross-chain, privacy + high TPS, incentive mechanisms
Explorations: AI × identity × RWA experiments
Whether it’s a demo, an experiment, or an early startup prototype—if it expands the edge of Psy, you can earn a spot on the Demo Day stage.
你将会构建什么？
参赛团队可自由探索 DeFi、DEX、NFT、RWA、GameFi、基础设施与创新型 DApp 等方向。Psy 鼓励不仅关注功能实现，更要在 协议设计、安全性、跨链互操作、用户体验与可持续激励机制 上提出突破性方案。目标是打造兼具 创新性与落地性 的 Web3 应用，加速下一波加密生态的迭代。以下是项目构建参考方向：
应用类项目：NFT Launchpad、DEX、DApp、钱包插件/拓展
协议层创新：跨链互操作、可持续激励机制、隐私与高 TPS 结合
探索性实验：结合 AI、身份、RWA 的全新形态应用
无论是 Demo、实验，还是创业雏形，只要推动 Psy 边界，就有机会登上 Demo Day 舞台。

About Psy Protocol
Psy Protocol is a next-generation blockchain protocol designed to overcome the limitations of traditional blockchains by delivering million-level TPS scalability, end-to-end privacy protection, and true decentralization. Its PARTH architecture eliminates state conflicts, while zero-knowledge proofs ensure that user data never leaves local devices. With Proof of Useful Work (PoW 2.0), miners’ computations directly enhance both the network’s security and scalability. Combined with programmable identities (SDKeys) and stable, low-cost transactions, Psy is not just a faster blockchain—it is the foundational layer for the next internet, offering a fair, private, verifiable, and infinitely scalable network for users, developers, and AI agents alike.
