🏁 BCH-1 Hackcelerator Phase 2 — Winners Announced The BCH-1 Hackcelerator Phase 2 sprint has officially concluded. First, a huge thank you to every builder who participated. The level of experimentation, creativity, and execution across the cohort was impressive to watch unfold. In total we saw: 👨‍💻 255 registered builders 💬 188 members active in the Telegram builder channel 🚀 53 projects progress into Phase 2 of the sprint Many teams pushed real prototypes, early infrastructure, and ambitious ideas into the ecosystem. Some projects joined late or ran out of time to complete their technical implementation, but still showed strong potential. Several of those teams will continue receiving guidance after the program. BCH-1 was designed to accelerate projects from idea → traction, and that next phase of support now begins. 🧭 How Projects Were Evaluated How Projects Were Evaluated Winners were selected based on the evaluation criteria outlined on DoraHacks and BCH-1.org. Projects were assessed across several dimensions: • Technical execution – working code, live demos, or deployed prototypes • Clarity of product vision – how clearly the project communicates its purpose and value • Impact on the BCH ecosystem – whether the project meaningfully expands the utility of Bitcoin Cash • Originality and design – novel mechanics, new product categories, or thoughtful adaptation of proven models • Public momentum – builder communication, social visibility, and engagement with the community • Follow-through – the likelihood that the team will continue building after the sprint Many teams delivered strong work across these categories. Ultimately, however, we had to make difficult selections. 🏆 Overall Winners: 🥇 Overall Winner: @nexopsbch $5,000 + $5,000 retroactive reward upon specification and MVP completion. 🥈 Overall Runner-Up: @BCHcash_mint $2,500 + $2,500 retroactive reward upon specifcation and MVP completion. 🛠 Technology Track: Winner: 🥇 @rabbitexp_bch $3,000 Runner-Up 🥈 @OPTNLabs $1,000 🧩 Application Track: After review, no clear overall winner was declared. The strongest contestant here, did not enough backend, and we cannot assign a winner based on just vision and front-end. Runner-Up: 🥈 @trustbch1 $1,000 🥈 @tripfiapp $1,000 💸 CashTokens Track: Winner: 🥇 @intents_swap $3,000 Runner-Up: 🥈 @flowguard_ $1,000 🥈 @FundTokens_Cash $1,000 ⭐ Honourable Mentions These teams delivered promising ideas, strong experimentation, or notable prototypes: Farmer's Dream @FarmersDreamP2E PayOnce Cash @PayOnceCash Cash Agent @CashAgent86522 Paysats @trypaysats Roast CashDropKit AuraTrades @AuraTradesBCH Milestara @jovan_0406 CashToken Studios Agent X402 Cash Launch BCHUBKey GSM Cash @gsmcash Confidential Assets BCH Ghost BCH Cashalyst @bch_cashalyst Atomic Cash @AtomicCashBCH TobbyPOS @tabbypos ------- What Happens Next BCH-1 does not end with the sprint. Selected teams will receive continued post-hackcelerator guidance, including: • help refining product direction • support preparing for launch or deployment • introductions where appropriate • continued ecosystem visibility Several projects that were technically incomplete but showed strong potential will also receive follow-up support where possible. The goal of BCH-1 is not just to run a hackathon — it is to create a pipeline of real products launching on And based on what we saw during this sprint, that pipeline has begun. More updates soon. We will be letting CHIP points run until Sunday, then we will close it for what comes after.
