BNB Chain has further boosted its BNB Hack initiative by adding UpTop and Bitring as sponsors. The BNB Hack project invites innovation across five advanced fields. It’s particularly interested in the intersection of Artificial Intelligence (AI), Decentralized Society (DeSoc), Decentralized Science (DeSci) and Decentralized Physical Infrastructure Networks (DePIN). The competition challenges developers to pitch their projects and compete for funding, recognition, and integration opportunities.
UpTop, a liquidity protocol that’s native to BNB Chain, is participating. At UpTop, we are dedicated to demystifying decentralized finance (DeFi) and making it easily accessible to all users.
"BNB Chain is where builders turn ideas into actual products — that’s exactly what we believe at UpTop. The future of DeFi lies in usable, composable infrastructure. We’re proud to support builders helping shape the next evolution of liquidity." - UpTop's team
Health-Tech platform Bitring joins as a sponsor. Bitring, meanwhile, is working on creating a smart ring integrated with AI and biosensors.
"BNB Hack is leading the charge in decentralized innovation, and Bitring is proud to contribute. We’re not just a ring — we’re insurance you can wear." - Bitring team
Other collaborators supporting the BNB Hack initiative include APRO, Netmind, USDX, Unibase.
The BNB Hack project accepts submissions … Developers have a real opportunity to prove themselves by building in AI, DeSoc, DeSci, DePIN, and across so many other exciting spaces. Participants can receive a variety of prestige, funding, and opportunities to implement their projects into the BNB Chain ecosystem.
Infrastructure like PlayAI, an orchestration layer for AI agents and DeFi automation, has gained huge traction, with over 25,000 sign-ups. In August, Zeta Market connected DeFi’s first BNB yield-focused automation layer.
Though our winners have been revealed, the fun is just beginning! Meanwhile, thirty-seven other honourable mentions from the BNB Hack can still win prizes through continued mentorship and support from the ecosystem. MCPForge, a developer marketplace that turns GitHub-based MCP repos into APIs callable by various AI services, plays an important role in the vision.
