<h1 class="heading-node">About the Bounty</h1>Crypto reaches its full potential when it powers products that people genuinely enjoy using. Solana’s speed and low fees enable seamless consumer experiences that were previously impossible, from social platforms and creator tools to gaming economies, loyalty systems, marketplaces, and mobile-first applications. This track is for builders focused on creating consumer apps where on-chain functionality enhances the experience without adding friction. The emphasis is on intuitive UX, meaningful token integration, and products that feel familiar, engaging, and ready for real users.The goal of this bounty is to build a consumer-ready MVP that demonstrates clear product value, smooth user flows, and strong adoption potential. Submissions must include a polished interface, working Solana integrations such as token minting, rewards, gating, or referrals, and a launch plan that outlines how the product and its token will grow with its community. The strongest submissions will show a deep understanding of user behavior and deliver experiences that feel natural from the first interaction, making crypto accessible, useful, and enjoyable for everyday users.Top teams will not only win prizes, but also unlock real opportunities for backing and security support. First place winners will receive an interview opportunity with Bonk Advisory for potential investment and ecosystem backing, along with a professional SDLC security review from Hacken to help prepare their product for production launch.<h1 class="heading-node">Evaluation Criteria</h1>Submissions will be evaluated across the following areas:Product Experience and UX Quality<ul class="list-node"><li>Does the product feel intuitive, polished, and enjoyable to use?</li><li>Is the onboarding experience smooth and accessible?</li><li>Does the app feel like a real consumer product rather than a prototype?</li></ul>Solana Integration and Token Utility<ul class="list-node"><li>Are on-chain features such as rewards, tokens, minting, or gating fully functional?</li><li>Does the token enhance the user experience in a meaningful way?</li><li>Is the token integrated naturally into the product design?</li></ul>Execution and Technical Quality<ul class="list-node"><li>Does the MVP function reliably and perform well?</li><li>Are core features implemented cleanly and effectively?</li><li>Does the product demonstrate strong engineering fundamentals?</li></ul>User Adoption and Growth Potential<ul class="list-node"><li>Does the project demonstrate clear potential to attract and retain users?</li><li>Is there a compelling use case or target audience?</li><li>Does the launch plan clearly outline how the product and community will grow?</li></ul>Innovation and Product Vision<ul class="list-node"><li>Does the product introduce new ideas or improve existing consumer crypto experiences?</li><li>Does it solve a real user problem or unlock new opportunities?</li></ul><h1 class="heading-node">Submission Requirements</h1>To qualify, teams must submit:<ul class="list-node"><li>A working consumer app MVP integrated with Solana</li><li>A live demo or deployed frontend with a polished interface</li><li>Functional on-chain features such as tokens, rewards, gating, or referrals</li><li>A DeAura token launch link</li><li>Documentation explaining the product, token utility, and user flows</li><li>A demo video and pitch outlining the launch and growth plan</li></ul><h1 class="heading-node">Eligibility requirements:</h1><ul class="list-node"><li>Token must be launched via DeAura</li><li>Project must reach at least $200,000 in trading volume</li><li>Reused code must be disclosed</li><li>Malicious behavior, plagiarism, or wash trading will result in disqualification</li></ul><h1 class="heading-node">Rewards</h1>Total Prize Pool: $8,5001st Place — $3,000 + $2,500 Hacken DLC<ul class="list-node"><li>Interview opportunity with Bonk Advisory for potential backing</li><li>Professional SDLC security review from Hacken</li><li>Enrollment in the Buildifi Hack 2 launch accelerator program</li></ul>2nd Place — $2,0003rd Place — $1,000 NOTE!
