Lambda Prize

Launch a product. Find real users. Win the prize.

Lambda Prize rewards products that launch on the Logos stack and find real users. There is no application process. Develop in public and release early so usage grows as you build. Each prize sets its own success criteria and adoption target. Evaluators then confirm the product runs and the usage is real. First one to meet all the criteria wins that prize, paid in USDT.

Same rules on both tracks

  1. 01

    Open source

    All work ships under MIT and Apache 2.0.

  2. 02

    Yours to run

    You publish and maintain what you build. Logos doesn't host or operate it.

  3. 03

    Real support

    Office hours, livestreams and direct access to the ecosystem development team.

Logos doesn't build the apps. You do.

The Logos stack is open source, delivering private-by-
default blockchain, storage, and messaging. What runs
on it is up to builders.

RFPs build the complex protocols and infrastructure on
top of Logos, while Lambda Prizes add an incentive to launch
apps with product-market fit.
