Flare brings the cross-chain interoperability XRP fans have longed for, encouraging devs to build the next big thing.
Harvard University is opening up an in-person hackathon, powered by the collaboration between Flare, XRPL Common & EasyA. Namely, this crypto developer event is focused on cross-chain development experience, providing in-person workshops with mentorage from both XRPL & Flare communities.
Sharing a $3,500 prize pool, all hackathon participants can compete in three different tracks:
* Cross-chain finance & Real-World Assets (RWAs)
Pairing XRP Ledger’s asset issuance & liquidity with Flare’s powerful tools, up & coming developers can build lending & borrowing platforms, staking products & tokenized assets.
* Composable dApps & interoperable infrastructure
The second XRP hackathon track is dedicated to next generation decentralized applications (dApps). Unlock cross-chain workflows by building on Flare’s smart accounts and enshrined oracles with XRP unlock.
* Consumer-friendly Web3 apps a.k.a. vibe coding
Building on Flare’s protocols in fun & accessible ways, this track is dedicated to lightweight apps for everyday use – prediction games, digital collectible sets, community reward systems & much more.
Besides, the Harvard University hackathon is built on EasyA, the largest educational app across Web3 right now. To celebrate the hackathon, EasyA is onboarding thousands of young promising developers via in-app challenges, building strong relationships with top crypto talent that’s ready for the XRPfi ecosystem.
Code, Compete & Shape Blockchain’s Future With XRPfi
Recently, XRP Ledger introduced a sidechain for crypto gaming, so cross-chain abstraction, programmable liquidity & decentralized oracles will play a key part in this next-gen DeFi venture. Hosted in Harvard University on September 20, 2025, the event brings together fans of two ecosystems that perfectly complement each other for quite some time.
Bringing over 200 devs in the 36-hour coding festivities, XRPfi is taking place at the mecca of knowledge. Notably, Ripple’s chief Brad Garlinghouse is an alumni of Harvard, so bringing this hackathon to Harvard pays homage to the one of the globe’s most established universities across the globe, opening doors for students to think outside the box & build the next generation of internet.
