From Leek Glasses to On-Chain Bullet Screens and DEV Pumping, How Creative is the Solana Online Hackathon

Author | Ethan (@ethanzhang_web3)

From January 20 to January 30, 2026, the Solana Online Hackathon officially took place, jointly initiated by Trends and the Solana Chinese community. As a fully online development event, this hackathon used X as the primary platform for project submission and showcase. Developers directly presented their projects to the community and judges for public review by posting project introductions, code, and demo links.

Unlike traditional hackathons that rely on a unified backend for submissions, this event adopted a more open participation model. Competing projects were showcased on a public timeline, allowing judges and community members to directly test, interact with, and provide feedback on them. This low-barrier, high-exposure selection mechanism led to a concentrated emergence of many product-oriented and experience-focused projects in a short period.

During the ten-day submission and review cycle, participating projects covered various directions including trading & strategy bots, Alpha discovery tools, internet capital markets, and consumer & entertainment applications. Compared to emphasizing grand narratives or underlying infrastructure, the projects that emerged from this hackathon focused more on real-world use cases, attempting to address long-standing issues such as trading efficiency, information noise, and user experience through AI, automation, and gamification.

The following is a detailed review by ओडेली of the award-winning projects from this Solana Online Hackathon.

Q: The x402 protocol has recently become a hot topic in the industry. What are your thoughts on the x402 protocol’s use of token payments to solve payment problems in AI? Yang Haipo: Actually, putting aside the concept of “AI payment”, from an engineer’s perspective, x402 is a relatively simple protocol. Its core is not to invent a new payment method, but to package on-chain payment into a standard web service and solve the trust and execution problems of on-chain payment by introducing a Facilitator. Many people compare x402 to traditional payment methods, but they actually serve different target audiences. Traditional payment systems like Alipay and Visa offer excellent user experiences, but they are designed for humans, not AI. For AI agents, traditional payment systems currently present two significant problems:…
