To our builders

The (crypto) world is changing faster than we can comprehend.

Crypto enables small teams to have outsized impact through open source, shared financial infrastructure. Stablecoins have become the first mainstream crypto use case, and AI is multiplying developer productivity. Acceleration is the new normal.

Frontiers is our intense two-day conference & hackathon, where developers learn and build the next generation of crypto applications and infrastructure. Our team will be on-site to meet, and advise builders on their projects.

At Paradigm, we believe the best way to understand and shape this future is to build it in the trenches with the developer community, and we have been doing just that for the past six years with our wide suite of open source software and research.

Looking forward to seeing you, at the frontier.
