📣 TLDR: Join us for the Base Onchain AI Weekend: London, a two-day buildathon dedicated towards building autonomous onchain agents on Base with awards for top builder submissions!

What is Onchain AI Weekend?

​Onchain AI Weekend is happening from Feb 1st to 2nd across three cities: San Francisco, London and Bangalore. We want to enable today’s builders with the tools to create the onchain AI agents of tomorrow.

​Have an idea for an AI agent for a social, trading, Defi, chat, gaming or another use case? Come build it.

​The Prompt

​The goal is to create innovative, unique experiences that push the status quo of what’s possible using onchain apps. We’re looking for projects with practical value that leverage the benefits of being onchain, the programmability of MPC Wallets, and the customizability enabled through streamlined API calls. Feel free to integrate AgentKit!

​If you’re looking for ideas, here’s a few to get started:

• ​A social agent that attracts attention and builds a following.

• ​A trading agent that implements automated trading logic based on user defined parameters.

• ​A Defi agent that can help users understand protocol opportunities and risks.

• ​Chat agent that can help people find useful information.

​Submissions must be built on Base

Why Participate

​The Buildathon is open to all physical attendees and winners will receive over $10k in prizes (more details be announced). Plus all winners will receive:
