Want to build a startup? Fascinated by how you can capture a share of Bitcoin's $1.4 TRILLION market cap? This hackathon's for you!


You know about Bitcoin. You most likely even know about Stacks. You’re probably even one of the 95,000+ developers who’ve already started learning about Stacks on the EasyA app. You might even have come to our wildly popular Stacks hackathon in London last October.

So what’s next? It’s time to get together IRL again as we host our first Stacks hackathon of 2024 in Boston at the world-famous Harvard University. With the Bitcoin halving coming up, this is going to be an absolutely momentous occasion. Two key upgrades are coming to Stacks which will for the first time ever bring true programmability and speed to Bitcoin itself. It's a once in a lifetime opportunity. One you definitely won't want to miss.

You'll build the future of finance and launch your own startup, all in a single weekend. With mentorship and code-level support from serial entrepreneurs and coding experts.

Past EasyA hackathon participants have been funded by a16z, Founders Fund, YC, Polygon Labs. And you could be next!

Make sure you sign up before all the spots run out!

Not a programmer? This hackathon is open to everyone regardless of technical experience (whether it’s ideation, marketing or presenting). Everyone will be starting their project at the hackathon, so all participants will have a fair chance of winning.

We even have a shark tank competition for attendees who just want to pitch (without having to code!).

What’s the best that could happen? Sign up ASAP!
