A build day for Nigerian developers
Nigeria Chapter Build is an exclusive, high-intensity hackathon designed for individual builders across Nigeria. This event focuses on fostering local innovation by providing a platform for developers to showcase their technical skills and creativity in a collaborative environment. Whether you are building a new protocol or a consumer application, this is your opportunity to contribute to the growing Nigerian tech ecosystem.
We are awarding a total prize pool of 500 USDC to recognize excellence in our two core tracks. The top project in the Infrastructure track will receive 350 USDC, while the top project in the Consumer Apps track will receive 150 USDC.
This hackathon is open to individual developers residing in Nigeria. Due to the nature of the event, team participation is not permitted. Participants must be prepared to provide proof of residency if requested. No KYC is required for registration, but winners must verify their identity to claim prizes.
Submissions are evaluated based on the following criteria:
