STON.fi Vibe Coding Hackathon – Wave 2
Build your first TON app in one weekend — even if you’ve never coded before.
After an incredible first edition, the STON.fi Vibe Coding Hackathon is back for Wave 2 — bigger, more ambitious, and packed with even more opportunities to build on TON.
This hackathon is a hands-on, high-energy build experience where anyone — including non-developers — can create and ship a working app on TON using AI coding agents.
No prior coding experience needed. Just curiosity, commitment, and a willingness to build.
Over the course of the hackathon, you’ll work alongside mentors, builders, and teams from some of the leading projects in the TON ecosystem — including STON.fi and Wallet in Telegram — while building directly on real infrastructure used by millions of users.
This isn’t a theoretical workshop or a mock startup exercise. You’ll be building real products with support from teams actively shaping TON today.
💡 Why build on TON?
TON is one of the fastest-growing ecosystems in crypto, tightly integrated with Telegram and built for real users.
That means:
Massive distribution potential through Telegram-native apps
Fast, low-cost transactions
Builder-friendly infrastructure
Early-stage opportunity
And with STON.fi, you’re building on top of real DeFi infrastructure — not just mock projects.
