ETHGlobal Unite DeFi runs from July 25 to August 6, 2025, as a fully virtual hackathon and summit focused on pushing the boundaries of decentralized finance. Hosted by ETHGlobal and powered by 1inch, this event invites global developers to tackle interoperability challenges, build liquidity-bridging protocols, and integrate cross-chain DeFi using cutting-edge tech stacks. With $525,000 in bounties up for grabs, participants are encouraged to innovate across three tracks: non-EVM cross-chain swaps, enhanced limit order protocols, and full-suite dApps on 1inch APIs.
The program includes pre-event brainstorming, live kickoff sessions, mentorship, asynchronous hacking, and final presentations judged by top Web3 experts. Whether you're a seasoned DeFi engineer or new to Web3, Unite DeFi offers immersive learning, mentorship from industry leaders, and a global community determined to bring seamless on-chain finance to life. Don’t miss your chance to build, ship, and gain visibility on the next evolution of DeFi.
