Event Progress: Over 100 Teams Registered with Dual Incentives
According to official HTX DAO social media, the HTX Genesis Hackathon—jointly hosted by HTX DAO and B.AI, and co-organized by OpenCSG, TinTinLand, and OpenCity—has exceeded 100 registered teams. The milestone indicates strong developer interest in the intersection of AI and Web3. The total prize pool is 20,000 USDT, complemented by over $100,000 in compute power credits, lowering the barrier for teams requiring substantial computing resources.
Competition Tracks: Six Focus Areas from $HTX Utility to Smart Operating Systems
The hackathon encourages submissions across six tracks: $HTX token application scenarios, B.AI ecosystem and compute services, AI Agent finance, on-chain asset management, trading infrastructure, and DAO tools/smart financial operating systems. These themes align with HTX DAO’s ecosystem goals and current market trends in AI agents and decentralized finance.
Key Dates: Registration Closes July 5, Final at Shanghai WAIC
Registration for HTX Genesis ends on July 5. The final round will be held offline on July 19 at the WAIC World Artificial Intelligence Conference in Shanghai, giving winning teams exposure at one of the industry’s premier AI events, with opportunities for feedback from experts, investors, and media.
HTX DAO’s Strategic Priorities: Four Pillars for Ecosystem Growth
HTX DAO also disclosed four near-term focus areas: First, continuously dissecting $HTX token rights to educate users on its real-world utility. Second, advancing the HTX Genesis hackathon by delivering developer resources, ecosystem support, and promotion. Third, deepening the AI×Web3 narrative, positioning HTX DAO as a gateway connecting AI builders, Web3 applications, and on-chain ecosystems. Fourth, expanding community and public welfare ties through donation initiatives and offline actions to ground community value in real-world impact. These moves signal HTX DAO’s shift from a single-governance token toward a multi-layered strategy encompassing technology, community, and real-world integration.
