描述
Flow is one of the fastest growing developer networks in 2025, and the number 1 choice for builders at hackathons all over the world. Forte Hacks provides an opportunity for those developers and builders to experiment with the latest upgrade to the network and build the next killer app.
From October 1-31st, this global hackathon invites hackers, creators, and Web3 developers to push the boundaries of smart contract automation, DeFi primitives, and user-centric killer applications to win a share of $250,000 in bounties and prizes.
Supported by a range of partners, like Dune, Quicknode, Moonpay, Dapper Labs, Thirdweb, Privy, Crossmint and more, the Forte Hacks hackathon has 5 core tracks - including exclusive bounties for building with partner applications.
About Flow
Flow is the best place to build killer apps, purpose-built to help builders ship faster and scale without compromise. The biggest brands and the best builders keep choosing Flow, like Disney, NFL, Ticketmaster and NBA. Flow has a unique multi-role architecture that ensures high transaction speed, near-instant finality, and MEV-resistance, enabling responsive, consumer-scale crypto applications.
What is Forte
Forte is the Flow network upgrade that brings composability and automation natively to Flow. Two new primitives, Actions and Workflows, let developers compose reusable, protocol-agnostic workflows with onchain time-based triggers. Forte lets builders get an edge with new features, like standardized DeFi actions, scheduled transactions, and onchain workflows.
Finding Team Members for the Hack
Join the dev community telegram, navigate to the general chat and post:
- A brief introduction about yourself, experience level and your skills (i.e. design UX/UI, presentation/pitching, frontend, smart contracts, back end, vibe coding etc.).
- The project you have in mind - either the one you want to build or the type of project you're interested in joining (i.e. DeFi etc.).
- Any additional useful info about yourself (i.e. timezone, other team members).
Submission Criteria
The submission must be deployed on testnet and/or mainnet (include a link to the contract deployed on explorer if applicable).
Must have a README.md and state the project is built on Flow, specify testnet or mainnet, and list the deployed or used contract address(es).
Both new and existing code can be submitted.
A video demo and GitHub repository must be submitted.
A social media post showcasing or introducing the project must be submitted (i.e. X post tagging the official Flow account @flow_blockchain).
Your submission should be public on github and free for others to check
Submissions can use Solidity (EVM), Cadence or both.
Judging Criteria
Please list the criteria and corresponding weights used to evaluate projects. The total weight should add up to 100%.
Criterias | Percent | Description |

评委标准
Bounty Overview
Consumer-oriented “killer apps” have the power to define and lead entire industries by solving real user pain points at scale. Think of how ChatGPT made AI accessible to hundreds of millions. Flow is designed for mass adoption and consumer-grade experiences, so we’re looking for the next breakthrough application that can capture the interest of millions (or billions!) of everyday users. This is a very broad bounty and eligible projects include everything from AI Agents and RWA to games and social apps.

评委标准
Bounty Overview
The new Forte upgrade, live on Flow has released powerful new capabilities such as Flow Actions (FLIP-338) - a brand-new standard that turn protocol logic into self-contained, reusable onchain building blocks you can call without importing ABIs, reading contract code, or writing brittle glue scripts. Each Action is a trustless workflow with clear metadata, built-in safety checks, atomic execution, and verifiable success criteria—think standardized onchain APIs that plug together like Lego bricks. For AI agents, this means instant discovery of available protocols, safe composition of complex workflows, and full automation without off-chain keepers or servers.
Another powerful feature is Schedued Transactions which let smart contracts execute code at (or after) a chosen time without an external transaction. You schedule work now; the network executes it later. This enables recurring jobs, deferred actions, and autonomous workflows.
This bounty is calling on builders to push the boundaries by using either of these two new features, creating new connectors to major protocols, chaining cross-protocol workflows, integrating Actions into games, integrating fully onchain agents with actions, or tools that help others discover and use useful Actions and more. Whether you’re into DeFi, gaming, or novel automation, this is your chance to shape the future of composability and define how agents interact with Web3.
