We’re proud to say that the Balkans are finally showing up on the global startup map, and it’s happening on @Solana.
We had over 70 submissions this hackathon season from a region that barely existed in the startup world a few years ago.
@Colosseum’s Cypherpunk was the biggest crypto hackathon ever and one of the biggest in tech history, with 1,576 total submissions.
We’ve been consistently building momentum in the region, season by season.
Once again, Superteams proved to be the cheat code for building on Solana.
The @Solana Cypherpunk Hackathon product directory is live!
Cypherpunk was the largest crypto hackathon ever & one of the largest in tech history with 1,567 submissions.
Winners + Colosseum accelerator founders will be announced at Breakpoint. Onward.

It’s the final day of the @Colosseum Cypherpunk Hackathon.
Here’s the list of the top 10 most interesting projects we’ve worked with during this hackathon season:
- @hobba_io makes borrowing less stressful by bringing self-repaying loans on Solana.
- @SP3NDdotshop makes spending stablecoins on Amazon and Temu easier than ever. Shop with your wallet, not your card.
- @moiramarket builds agentic prediction markets on Solana.
- @hyperonsol streams your onchain data, builds infra, and powers the next wave of Solana apps.
- @KeloxMedical tokenizes near-expiry medical supplies. Helping hospitals reduce waste and recirculate inventory.
- @hivebits_io lets you invest in tokenized beehives. Real-world impact meets on-chain yield.
- @traderoomsfun creates a marketplace for tradable hotel stays. Your unused reservations are now liquid.
- @useredio enables instant affiliate payouts.
- @biqProtocol helps drive, measure, and reward attendance. Turning events into on-chain proof.
- @ThalerFinance launches a compliant yield-bearing stablecoin.
Good luck to all teams today.
It’s been a pleasure working with all of you. 🫶

Second place at Demo Day at Buildstation Belgrade: @hobba_io 🥈
Imagine @toly wants to buy a gently used 2001 Honda Civic like ours. Instead of selling his assets to buy the car, he deposits some as collateral, borrows the needed amount, and lets the loan repay itself over time. In the end, he gets his asset back.
Hobba lets you borrow using your assets as collateral, and repays your loan over time using the yield it generates.
No selling. No stress. Just smarter borrowing.
They spent the last two weeks at Buildstation Belgrade refining the idea and pitch deck with us every single day.
You borrow. Hobba does the rest.
Launching soon. You’ll want to try it.

We couldn’t finish this hackathon season without mentioning our most successful team.
@EatwithNomu is a marketplace where you pre-buy products and earn when they sell.
Over the past two months, they’ve put up some crazy numbers:
- #1 spot on the @legendsdotfun leaderboard with significantly more votes than anyone else
- Community of over 1,500 members
- Raised $75k in ~8 seconds through a token launch
- Built an NFT community of 1,000 holders
Keep your eyes on them. Their first major marketplace drop with a leading Solana IP is coming soon.
