🏆 Your Colosseum Frontier Singapore Winners:
🥇 @Clustlydotai — Clustly
The onchain marketplace where humans hire AI agents, work gets done 24/7, and every output is verified through attestations, escrow & reputation. Trustless. Instant. Built on Solana.
🥈 @surgepayxyz — Surgepay
Send money from the US to India via WhatsApp. Instantly. At zero cost. Payments, reimagined.
🥉 @KurtosisLabs — Kurtosis
High-performance Solana vaults powered by quantum hardware — starting with RWA & fixed-income strategies, with APY that consistently beats 10%.
⭐ Honorable Mention: @Adher_ai — Adher
AI governance for banks. Deterministic rules, no AI policing AI — every interaction gets a tamper-proof fingerprint anchored on Solana. The audit trail regulators actually want.
Honorable mention because there was a tie for 3rd place. There was some serious contention in our tiebreakers!
Congratulations to all! 🎉

With the advent of AI, these numbers will only continue to go up. And better filters will be needed to surface signals over the noise. Even @colosseum had this banger of a tweet regarding a 1 SOL deposit.
HackBet's ready for this.

Streamline this process with HackBet for all future hackathons!

We think it's too chaotic (and ambitious) to create a generic framework when long-tail risk is difficult to underwrite!
Perhaps focusing on a niche market (for us, it's hackathons) and finding a model that best suits that niche would prove fruitful!
Replying to @NirbhikJangid @herz0g
You're absolutely right! But the game theory of such a market is too chaotic to reasonably analyze! So we're experimenting with real USDC, on HackBet!
To address your concerns, we've capped per wallet stake to 250USDC and implemented an unstaking fee to disincentivize gaming.
Replying to @herz0g
Agreed! But Bench tries to solve this with Ur hackathon staking market innit?
Replying to @ConejoCapital @colosseum
HackBet has already implemented this on-chain! Do check us out!
Replying to @joeymeere @colosseum
Cool suggestion. But defining slop on an ad-hoc basis is not gonna scale with 3k submissions. AI perhaps? But that'll also mean edge cases need to be considered.
HackBet already built the first half for Colosseum. Would love to hear your ideas on flagging criteria.
Replying to @SuperteamNL
10/10 idea! Super useful for small teams trying to deploy to mainnet with little to no budgets for audit!

Happy to hear your thoughts!
Replying to @afscott
Yes but existing solutions (aka binary prediction markets) are inherently incompatible for hackathons. (thin liquidity, hundreds of participants, profit focused)
HackBet uses pari-mutuels to get around this, along with several other features, to align builder incentives!
Thankful for Superteam Singapore's support! @SuperteamSG 🙏

A hackathon betting platform! Would love to have your review and potentially, collaborate!
Replying to @mikehale @colosseum
100% agreed. And it's already built. On HackBet.
Replying to @beeman_nl @colosseum
You're absolutely right and this is already built. On chain. By HackBet.
Replying to @xer0c @colosseum
What about a refundable deposit + non-refundable self-staking to indicate commitment?
This is already built on-chain. By HackBet.
