From immense competition, these devs rose above with standout execution to turn ideas into reality.
π Presenting the Top 5 & the Winners of Entangled 2026!
Huge thanks to everyone who built on WireFluid. Congrats to the champions! Stay tuned for whatβs next. π
Ask a chain how fast it is and it will tell you about throughput. Ask when your money is actually safe and the answer gets quieter.
Finality is that answer. It is the moment a transaction stops being reversible. Before it lands you are holding a promise. After it lands you are holding a payment.
Bitcoin makes you wait an hour for that. Ethereum, about 12.8 minutes. Solana, roughly 13 seconds.
WireFluid gets there in 5.8.
@MidnightNtwrk Hell, look into @Wirefluid.
A Blockchain being built out of Islamabad.
Stop promoting a dead chain with a charlatan leader. It's been over for $ada, you people refuse to let it die because you were left holding the bag.
Nisha Fatima chased a problem people actually have, moving money.
Hear how she built WirePayments on WireFluid, why payments was the challenge worth taking on and what she learned turning a hackathon build into something real.

Everyone deserves a platform they can build on and WireFluid stands for this.
When WireFluid organized Pakistan's biggest blockchain hackathon, we dreamed of giving the country's builders a stage worthy of their ambition. Then over 300 developers walked in and blew past every expectation we had.
Teams turned their ideas into projects on real-infrastructure.
Winning projects are now hosted and actively promoted across WireFluid's platforms, with their builders featured on the Entangled Podcast for the entire ecosystem to see.
What began as a hackathon has grown into a thriving home for Pakistan's blockchain community. That is the part we're proudest of.
Today, on World Youth Skills Day, we celebrate the young builders who made it all real.
Hardly anyone building tokenized finance actually owns any of it.
That was the scene at Consensus Hong Kong this year, when leaders from @Mastercard and @RobinhoodApp asked a hall of crypto insiders whether they hold tokenized RWAs in their own wallets. The silence answered for them.
We went through the data to understand why. The biggest fund in this $19.3 billion market belongs to about 113 investors, and the exclusion is enforced by the smart contracts themselves. Entry to the best yields starts at $5 million. Meanwhile, the one asset with no restrictions at all is quietly more active than everything the institutions have built.
Our latest article breaks down how the gate works, and what it would take to build the open version.

Every hackathon crowns one build that outshines the rest.
At Entangled 2026, that build was WirePayments.
Episode three sits down with its creator and our champion, Nisha Fatima, as she walks through how she brought it to life on WireFluid.
The full episode drops next week.

Only 13% of people who install a new Web3 wallet open it again a week later.
An industry that raised billions on banking the unbanked cannot get 9 / 10 people to come back after seven days. We keep calling this an onboarding problem but it is not.
Look around and you'll see social login is everywhere now.
Gasless transactions,
recovery without a seed phrase,
the whole sector shipped these upgrades this year and the retention curve still looks the way it looks.
Why? The friction was never only at the front door, it runs through the whole architecture.
Most wallets were built as developer tools and later dressed up as consumer products. We are intentionally not naming any but those who know, know.
You can add a Google login to a house whose foundation still assumes the user speaks fluent gas and chains.
The login gets smoother but the house stays the same house.
People feel that even when they cannot name it and they leave.
The fix is not another feature bolted onto a decade-old base.
It starts lower down where fees is handled at the protocol level, so cost is known rather than negotiated every tap. The network sitting underneath where it belongs, so which chain your money lives on stops being your problem. Onboarding that meets people where they are and grows with them.
A wallet should work the way every other app in your pocket already works. You tap and it works, you never think about it. Clear THAT bar first. Then ask people to trust you with their money.
That is the standard the next wave of wallets has to meet. Transparency with ease.
Episode two of the Entangled Podcast is live.
Hear how Humayun and Maryam built WireAgent and what it took to stand out among the countryβs sharpest founders.

Two financial worlds are merging and the numbers have crossed the point where they are hard to ignore.
The line between Wall Street and on-chain is dissolving quietly and now the real question is who positions while it is still early.
