Colosseum Builders Head to the Judges with Cross-Network Products
Colosseum's Crypto World's Fair applications have closed. See how SODAX supported builders through Superteam workshops and one-on-one help, and meet the teams heading to the judges with cross-network products.
SODAX Team
•
Crypto World's Fair applications closed on October 12. Several of the teams now heading into judging built their products across blockchain networks from the start, with SODAX coordinating execution underneath.
Through the application window, SODAX worked alongside builders directly: an in-person session with Superteam Thailand in Bangkok, remote workshops with Superteams Turkey, Brazil and Japan, and one-on-one integration support.
One SODAX integration reaches six of the hackathon's tracks (Solana, Ethereum, Hyperliquid, Base, Arbitrum and Robinhood Chain), so a single build can make its case in more than one.
A hackathon team gets a few weeks to turn an idea into something judges can actually use. Every hour spent wiring up support for a second or third network is an hour taken from the product itself. At Colosseum's Crypto World's Fair, that tradeoff came with real stakes: eight ecosystem tracks, $840,000 in prizes and $2.5 million in accelerator funding, with track prizes awarded on top of the overall prize pool.
Applications closed on October 12. Several of the teams now preparing to face the judges skipped that tradeoff. Their products work across blockchain networks (cross-network, for short) because they built on SODAX, and they spent the application window on the thing they're actually pitching.
The cheat code
In September we called SODAX your Colosseum cheat code. SODAX is a cross-network execution and liquidity system that lets one app trade, lend, borrow and move assets across 20+ blockchain networks through a single integration, or to hook up universal deposits. Six of the World's Fair tracks run on networks SODAX already connects: Solana, Ethereum, Hyperliquid (through its HyperEVM), Base, Arbitrum and Robinhood Chain.
For a hackathon team, that comes down to three things:
One build can compete in more than one track.
Liquidity comes attached so teams don't bootstrap pools or run their own routing.
The product stays theirs with composability and custom fee-structure while teams integrate through our API.
The teams heading to the judges
These teams are taking their products in front of Colosseum's judges with cross-network execution supported by SODAX. Each one owns its product, its users and its pitch.
Soladrome: a ve(3,3) exchange on Solana adding cross-network deposits.
Clash of Perps: a gamified trading frontend that plugs into 15 perpetual futures exchanges.
Chord Express: an intent system for buying physical goods, built on Solana.
Degen Terminal: a pro-grade trading terminal for crypto, stocks and prediction markets on any network.
Onyx Mobile Network: mobile connectivity and payments for people who travel.
Berth: tokenized US stocks and funds, bought with the crypto you already hold in one signature.
Kagiboy: a hardware wallet in a Game Boy cartridge, powered by SODAX.
TenonFi: self-custody vaults made to fit your goals, with the exit checked before you deposit.
Metera: an execution layer for autonomous agents that checks each transaction against your policies before it is signed.
Peridot: a DeFi broker for lending and borrowing, with cross-network deposits powered by SODAX.
What comes next
Judging decides the prizes, but whatever happens the SODAX team keeps working with these builders after the results, and alongside Superteams to keep bringing builders the tools they need to ship at speed.
Teams that want to build across blockchain networks, for a hackathon or a launch, can start at docs.sodax.com or generate an API key.
