🏆 TON AI Agent Hackathon: Winners
Two weeks. 160+ submissions. An incredible amount of talent and execution from the community. This was the first major AI Agent competition on TON, and the quality exceeded every expectation. Builders showed up and delivered.
Track 1: Agent Infrastructure ($10,000)
Three winners, $3,333 each. These projects create reusable primitives and infrastructure that the entire TON agent ecosystem can build on.
🏅Imago ($3,333): LLM inference marketplace on TON with Cocoon TEE integration
🏅Catallaxy ($3,333): Decentralized agent marketplace with HTTP 402 payment protocol
🏅ENACT Protocol ($3,333): Trustless escrow for AI agent commerce
Track 2: User-Facing Agents ($10,000 + $5,000 additional prizes)
After listening to community feedback, we expanded this track to recognize both sides of what the hackathon was meant to reward: technical ambition and originality, alongside teams that delivered functional, ready-to-use projects.
🥇MyTonWallet AI Crypto Agent ($5,000): The first native AI agent inside a TON wallet. World-class product, seamless integration.
🥈TON Steward ($3,000): AI agent for fundraising in Telegram.
🥉EIVA ($2,000): A creative take on personal AI agents with TON-native identity.
🏅TON Agent Platform ($3,000): No-code platform for creation of AI agents.
🏅Tonpixio ($2,000): TON blockchain analytics agent
☝️All participants, make sure your reward wallet is connected in your Identity Hub settings under the Wallets section. Rewards and badges will be distributed tomorrow.
Not being selected does not mean your project is not valuable. We saw incredible work from dozens of teams, and many strong submissions pushed the boundaries of agent infrastructure, use cases, and developer tooling. It was genuinely hard to pick winners.
Keep building 💎
💎 TON AI Agent Hackathon is here!
$20,000. Two tracks. Two weeks.
Track 1: Agent Infrastructure ($10K)
Build tooling and primitives that help power the next generation of AI applications on TON. This can include wallet integrations, agent coordination, payment flows, developer tools, and other core infrastructure.
Build AI agents that users can interact with directly inside Telegram. This can include commerce agents, payment bots, assistants, trading tools, automation products, and other practical AI-powered experiences. These agents can be both user-facing products and part of agent-to-agent interactions on TON, including payments, coordination, and trust.

🛡Hack THE TON — the first wargame platform built on TON!
Ethereum has legendary wargames like Ethernaut and Damn Vulnerable DeFi — tools that have onboarded thousands of developers into smart contract security.
TON had nothing like this. So the community built it.
🎮 How does it work?
Hack THE TON is a series of challenge levels, each represented by a smart contract written in Tact or Tolk.
Your goal is to hack the contract by triggering its hidden condition.
Use your knowledge of the TVM, analyze the logic, exploit vulnerabilities, and win!
🔧 Along the way, you'll learn to:
*️⃣Deepen your understanding of the TVM and TON architecture
*️⃣Read and understand Tact/Tolk contracts
*️⃣Analyze smart contract vulnerabilities in TON
*️⃣Write attack contracts and exploits
🏆 Completing levels contributes to your profile and reputation in the ecosystem.
👾 The first wave of levels is already live.
Join the core of TON’s hacker community — and prove what you're capable of.

🏆 MyTonWallet Contest for Android Developers
Prize fund: up to $25,000
Deadline: 23:59 on September 4th (Dubai time)
The Task is to implement the new design for MyTonWallet as a new Kotlin app based on the provided mockups. Your submission must precisely represent the provided design – this includes all elements, their proportions and position on the screen.
Screen transitions and animations should also be implemented. We recommend using the official Telegram for Android app as a reference and source of inspiration.
Required Functionality (Screens)
1. Auth Flow, including both creating and importing wallets.
2. Main Screen listing all user's tokens and recent transactions.
3. Transaction Info Modal featuring several transaction types.
Bonus Functionality
- Transferring Coins.
Details
While the task involves developing a new Kotlin app, some existing code from our current JavaScript app must be reused. Specifically, the API and blockchain integrations (which is already standalone and currently exposed as a web worker). To achieve this, a bridge must be implemented to allow running JavaScript process from the Kotlin environment (e.g., in an invisible WebView). This approach enables leveraging our existing API abstractions and focusing on the UI part without delving deeply into blockchain-related programming.
Evaluation Criteria
During the evaluation stage our judges will test the submissions on a broad range of Android devices. The key factors that will be used to determine the best apps are:
· The general aesthetics of the app.
· Adherence to the provided mockups and design elements.
· Attention to the tiniest details in the user experience.
The smoothness of animations and the overall stability of the app will play a major role. Last but not least is the absence of significant flaws (including crashes, performance issues, battery drains, visual glitches, noticeable element blinking, layout imperfections and more).
Submissions
Contestants will be able to submit their entries to @MyTonWalletSupport. We will further clarify the submission instructions closer to the deadline.
