Background

Circle's platform makes it faster, easier, and safer to bring the benefits of blockchain to your business. Accept payments, send payouts, manage custody, and build multichain, gasless experiences with USDC.

Circle Developer Bounties invite you to build real-world solutions with Circle's suite of smart contracts, APIs, and SDKs. Qualification requirements are outlined below.

Choose from the Challenges listed and submit your solution as a BUIDL before the deadline. You may also apply for the optional Feedback Bounty to help support the growth of Circle's products and resources.

Join Circle's Discord community to communicate with like minded devs and get support directly from the Circle team.
