Trust Wallet teams up with BNB Chain and CoinMarketCap to launch the AI Trading Agent Hackathon, with a total prize pool of $36,000

2026.06.03 21:50:23

June 3rd official announcement: Trust Wallet is kicking off the “BNB Hack: AI Trading Agents” hackathon in collaboration with BNB Chain and CoinMarketCap. The total prize pool comes to $36,000, with the Trust Wallet Agent Kit serving as the event’s core on-chain execution tech stack. Notably, this marks the first time the Trust Wallet Agent Kit has taken on a central infrastructure role, fully integrated into a top-tier AI Agent hackathon system. The hackathon features two primary tracks plus three partner-specific awards (each worth $2,000): 1. **Autonomous Trading Agent Track**: Boasts a $24,000 prize pool (5 winners). Participants must use the Trust Wallet Agent Kit to enable local self-hosted signing, autonomous operation, and on-chain transaction execution, building native BNB Chain use cases like PancakeSwap and BSC perpetual contracts. Judging here focuses on real PnL, with a max drawdown limit applied as a risk control threshold. 2. **Strategy Skills Track**: Offers a $6,000 prize pool (3 winners). No on-chain execution is required. Participants will tap into 12 data tools—including CoinMarketCap MCP’s market data, technical indicators, on-chain data, sentiment, and news—to build back-testable strategic solutions. This track’s scores are determined by a judging panel across four dimensions: technical execution, originality, real-world value, and presentation. Key timeline details: The build window runs June 3–21; the trading window is June 22–28; final award results will be unveiled during the week of July 6. Beyond cash prizes, winning teams will receive CoinMarketCap Pro API subscription points, mentorship from CMC Labs, and support from BNB Chain Kickstart’s ecosystem.
