Build programmable trust. Real escrow flows for stablecoin payments on Stellar.
Boundless is teaming up with Trustless Work for a 4-day hybrid hackathon: 3 days of virtual building, 1 day of in-person demos.
You'll ship products that use Trustless Work primitives, non-custodial, milestone-based escrow for stablecoins, where funds only move when predefined conditions are met.
Format
What you can build
Pick one specific product. Do not build a generic escrow platform.
Tracks
Integration paths
AI-native tooling
Use the AI-Optimized Docs, Trustless Work Skill, Vibe Coding guides, and the MCP server with Cursor or Claude to move faster.
Strong projects clearly answer: what trust problem are you solving, who are the parties, what condition unlocks the funds, and who resolves disputes. The best demos show the live escrow state in the Escrow Viewer.
