Solana Network State Spring '26 (Superteam MY x AppWorks x Jelawang Capital)

About Superteam Malaysia

Superteam Malaysia helps promising projects in the Solana ecosystem in Malaysia launch and grow. We're a co-operative of creatives, developers, and operators experienced in launching and growing tech businesses. We value the sovereignty that comes with founding a company, the skin in the game that comes with investing, and the joy that comes with getting things done. We're turning our organization inside-out so you can lurk, find opportunities, and join us on this adventure. We're excited to support builders in the Frontier hackathon.

Mission

Build a strong product with real potential on Solana as part of the Colosseum Frontier hackathon. Teams building from Malaysia or with a strong connection to our local community can compete for an additional $10,000 local prize pool.

Hackathon Track Scope

This hackathon track is open-ended and highly founder-oriented. We're looking for projects that solve real user problems and make meaningful use of the Solana platform. Projects can span various categories, including:

• Consumer applications

• DeFi (Decentralized Finance)

• Payments

• Infrastructure

• Artificial Intelligence (AI)

• Data solutions

• Developer tooling

• Identity and social identity solutions

• Privacy apps and private payments

• Coordination tools

• Onchain commerce

We are particularly interested in teams that demonstrate a clear reason why Solana is the right platform for their project and show credible potential to continue building beyond the hackathon.

Bonus consideration will be given to projects aligning with our partner tracks:

• SNS Identity Track: Identity, social identity, and agent identity on Solana (track listing here).

• MagicBlock Privacy Track: Privacy apps and private payments (track listing here).

• KIRAPAY Payments Track: Practical payments and real-world adoption (track listing here).

Note: You will need to submit your project concurrently in the respective partner track links to be considered.

Submission Requirements

• Register for the hackathon on the Colosseum platform and select "Malaysia" or "Network State."

• Submit your project to the Frontier hackathon on the Colosseum platform and select "Malaysia."

• Submit your project on both the Colosseum portal and Superteam Earn.

• The project must meet the official rules of the global hackathon.

• Teams must have a meaningful connection to Malaysia, Superteam MY, or be actively participating through our Solana Network State Spring ‘26 program at Network School.

• The overall submission quality (pitch deck, videos, and documentation) should clearly communicate the problem, product, architecture, and its significance.

• If the team’s Github repo is closed source, please grant access to malaysia@superteam.fun for our evaluation.

Judging Criteria

Our local judging will be aligned with Colosseum’s founder-first philosophy. We will evaluate projects based on:

• Product Quality and User Value: Does the project solve a real problem, and is there a believable path to traction, usage, or product-market fit?

• Technical Execution: How strong is the implementation? Does the team demonstrate real technical understanding, quality, and ambition?

• Use of Solana: Does the product make meaningful use of Solana, or is it treated as an afterthought?

• Founder Potential: Does the team look like it can keep shipping after the hackathon? Is there evidence of speed, clarity, and conviction?

• Demo and Submission Quality: How clearly does the team communicate the problem, product, architecture, and why it matters?
