Following the incredible momentum from over half a dozen hackathons in recent months such as ETHGlobal San Francisco and Singapore, Flow continues its mission to empower devs building for mass adoption. Now it’s your turn to build on a blockchain made for killer apps!
Kick Off EthTaipei with the Go WTF Cruise
Last month we announced the Flow Castle, one of the most talked about hacker houses at EthDenver, this time in Taipei we are setting sail to new horizons! Before the hacking begins, we are setting the tone with a one-of-a-kind highly anticipated pre-hackathon experience. Flow Blockchain, along with Pool and EduDAO, invites builders to the Go WTF Sunset Cruise & Dinner over the waters of Taipei on April 2nd. Connect with 45 fellow hackers, share ideas, and vibe before the competition begins.
Expect a 3 hours of BBQ, live DJ sets, an open bar, and unbeatable views of the city lighting up as night falls. Whether you’re scouting your next teammate or just want to unwind with the Web3 community, this is the perfect launch into EthTaipei.

Why Build on Flow?
Flow is purpose-built for consumer crypto onchain apps, offering the performance, developer experience, and interoperability needed to build next generation onchain applications. With full EVM equivalence and Cadence—Flow’s native resource-oriented language—you can build uniquely powerful apps that work seamlessly with EVM tooling while unlocking next-level user experiences. Flow powers millions of user accounts and has supported some of the biggest Web3 launches from partners like the NBA, UFC, Ticketmaster, NFL, and Disney.
At ETHGlobal Taipei, we’re spotlighting three bounty tracks:
🗡️ Most Killer App Potential – $6,000
Killer consumer apps can define entire industries by solving real user problems at scale—like how ChatGPT brought AI to the mainstream. Flow is purpose-built for mass adoption, and we’re seeking the next breakout application that can engage millions through anything from AI agents and RWAs to games and social platforms.
💰 Best Consumer DeFi – $3,000
Flow is experiencing rapid DeFi growth, thanks to fast, low-cost transactions and native Solidity compatibility. This bounty seeks projects that elevate DeFi and make it accessible to everyday users— Visit our booth to connect with the Flow team and get help building your next big idea.
👽 Best EVM++ App with Cadence – $1,000
Cadence is a resource-oriented smart contract language that empowers developers to extend their EVM apps with powerful features and smoother UX. From native transaction batching to onchain randomness and fee sponsorship, Cadence unlocks next-level functionality with ease. Developers are encouraged to use Cadence to extend their app, which will allow them to create a more seamless user experience and robust on-chain logic.
All submissions must deploy to, or integrate with Flow, and be public and original. Need help getting started? Visit the Flow Dev Portal or come by our booth on-site.
