Solana has launched its first artificial intelligence (AI) hackathon, marking a significant milestone in integrating artificial intelligence with blockchain technology. The event offers over $185,000 in cash prizes to incentivize global developers and innovators to explore AI applications on the Solana blockchain.

According to a thread on Solana’s X handle, the AI hackathon will be powered by Send AI with six different tracks on AI agents.

The main track by ai16z and Solana Foundation will have developers competing to build the best overall AI Agent product with cash prizes of $30,000, $20,000, and $10,000 serving as rewards for the best three AI agent products.

The second track by Kuzco, a distributed GPU cluster for LLM inference will focus on AI agents infrastructure with developers slugging it out for the next-generation framework for AI agents on Solana. This also has three cash pots of $15,000, $7,500, and $5,000 respectively.

Other tracks include defi agents by Adrena Protocol to build defi agents that can interact with and manage positions across Solana defi protocols. The agent token tooling by Meteora aims to build tools for AI agents to launch & manage token liquidity from fair token launches to liquidity provision.

The final tracks are trading agents by Paladin to build AI agents specifically for spot trading and autonomous chat agents by Assisterr to build chat-based agents.

Developers on the AI hackathon will have access to expert mentoring, idea boards, and resources by Send AI. Real-life pop-ups will be hosted by the Superhosts with submissions open till Dec. 15. Developers can also enter the competition as a solo dev or a team not exceeding five people with the option to submit projects in any two tracks of their choosing.
