Hack DeFAI like it means something On June 15–16, join us at w3.hub for 24 hours of focused, irreverent, and community-driven AI x blockchain hacking. At Agents Without Masters, we’re calling on builders, researchers, weirdos, and wanderers to create autonomous agents that actually do something. Not just talk — act. We're here to ship DeFAI agents with real-world utility, speed, and backbone. 💸 $25,000 in bounties 🛠️ Quickstart templates & hands-on guidance 🚀 Post-hackathon rewards & GTM support Organized by NEAR Foundation & Hackbox. Who It's For - AI-curious builders and blockchain developers of all levels - First-time hackers welcome If you’ve ever thought “this needs to be done by an agent” — this hackathon is for you What You’ll Build ✅ Autonomous agents that interact with NEAR or adjacent tools (tech stack guidance will be available) ✅ Public GitHub repos. No black boxes. No prior experience with NEAR or AI needed — we’ll help you ship something solid by dawn.
