Lens Spring Hackathon

The Lens Spring Hackathon runs from May 5 to May 20, 2025, with a prize pool of $55,000 for builders creating apps in SocialFi, finance, AI, gaming, and consumer categories. It follows a mainnet launch and a December Holiday Hackathon that the organizers say drew 40+ projects. Lens prizes include 20,000 $GHO for first place, 10,000 $GHO for second, and 5,000 $GHO each for third and fourth, while Bonsai tracks award $2,000 and $500 in BONSAI for each of two categories. Entries must build on Lens Protocol with at least one Social Primitive, deploy smart contracts on Lens Chain, and be submitted with a README, open-source code, and a demo through Alchemy University by May 20 at 4:00 PM CET.
