Monad Blitz San Francisco: x402 Edition
⚡️ Join us for the 18th Edition of Monad Blitz—and the very first in North America! This edition of Blitz is co-hosted with Coinbase, thirdweb and Founders' Inc.
Monad Blitz is a high-energy, one-day hackathon series designed to empower builders on Monad’s high-performance EVM blockchain. We launched the program in May 2025 and have since taken it on the road, welcoming creators from Bengaluru to Seoul.
With hundreds of developers and dozens of shipped prototypes so far, Blitz showcases what high-throughput blockchain workflows feel like in practice—fast feedback, fast execution, and fast results.
👾 The Theme: Agentic Payments utilizing x402
x402 is revolutionizing how services, data, and APIs are monetized. Your challenge is to build the next generation of applications, agents, or workflows that seamlessly use x402 for machine-to-machine or in-app payments.
Build a project of your choice—an app, an agent, a workflow, anything—that enables you to pay for APIs, data, or other services using the thirdweb x402 facilitator on Monad.
🏆 Prizes ($2000 USD Pool):
1st Place: $1000 USD
2nd Place: $600 USD
3rd Place: $400 USD
All approved participants will also get two months of the Thirdweb Growth Plan (worth $99) for free!
