Stellar Hack+ is the hackathon component of Stellar Week, a week-long builder program in Buenos Aires focused on technical development, ecosystem interoperability, and product growth. It brings together developers and founders from across LATAM to design, build, and deploy solutions using the Stellar stack. The goal is not only to build prototypes, but to deliver measurable progress. Participants are expected to show clear technical advancement during the event, whether through new integrations, architecture improvements, or functional deployments that demonstrate the potential of Stellar in real-world contexts. As part of the Stellar Lab, this edition of Stellar Hack+ will feature a ZK Morning, a series of sessions exploring how zero-knowledge proofs (ZKPs) can enhance privacy, scalability, and interoperability across the Stellar ecosystem. While there is no dedicated ZK track, projects that demonstrate understanding or future integration potential of ZK concepts will receive additional consideration during judging. This is not a decisive factor, but it can positively influence scoring in Innovation and Technical Sophistication, recognizing builders who align with Stellar’s long-term vision for advanced cryptography and scalability.
