The Solana Frontier Hackathon by @colosseum just wrapped as the largest crypto hackathon on record. More than 10,000 builders across more than 150 countries submitted 2,857 projects.
Reflect was a sponsor alongside @phantom, @coinbase, @Raydium and others.
The grand prize went to @crowdbrainai, a robotics DePIN project.
We supported Frontier because we wanted to see what builders would do with stablecoins across the Solana ecosystem. There were no dedicated tracks or category winners, but a pattern stood out to us: stablecoins are no longer just products people build, they are becoming infra people build on. We wanted to highlight teams building with stablecoins that formed part of the hackathon:
• @myStableCorp gets you set up to run a real company when you're paid in stables. They incorporate you with a US entity quickly, give you a bank account, and let you invoice clients in USDC or fiat, with tax and compliance, including India-specific.
• @DashXHQ is an India off-ramp. Get paid in USDC from anywhere, it hits your Indian bank in INR in about two minutes, and all the compliance paperwork your accountant needs gets generated automatically.
• @my_mana_ is a neobank for Filipinos abroad. Dollar accounts, savings, and a Visa card that works globally. For people working outside their country while being able to support their family back home.
• Envelope by @notarkoroy lets you pay team members around the world without putting everyone's salary on the public ledger.
• SecondSet by @ncrypto_0 brings real accounts payable to paying contractors and vendors in stablecoins. Payment requests, approvals, and an audit trail tying every sign-off to the onchain transaction.
• @hiihodl is a checking account for the remote economy. Receive stablecoins from anywhere and spend, save, or move them, with no seed phrases, gas, or chain switching.
• @sentinelprotoc offers flight delay insurance in stablecoins. When a delay hits the threshold, the payout happens automatically.
• @fossapay offers payment rails for African neobanks and businesses, built for both local and cross-border money movement.
• Xentra by @_Kamalkt gets farmers paid in stablecoins for crops, instead of waiting on cash or slow bank transfers.
• Ocean Sense by @gabrululu allows small-scale fishermen to run ocean sensors and get paid automatically in a stablecoin pegged to their own currency.
• @riven_cash gives AI agents their own stablecoin wallet with spending limits, so they can pay for things without touching main wallets or funds.
• @Xeno_Money is a stablecoin card network, like Apple Pay for crypto. Tap to pay on the card machines shops already have, self-custodial, no chargebacks.
• @SaySoFun lets you borrow stablecoins against a live prediction market bet instead of letting that money sit idle until resolution.
• @APTreeio turns your stablecoins or local cash into yield with one tap, without any DeFi knowledge needed.
• @norafinancexyz offers Brazilian Real stablecoin infrastructure for neobanks and payment apps to plug into.
• Lifted Finance by @dima_vazhenin gives leveraged stablecoin looping with built-in protection if the yield turns negative.
• @SP3NDdotshop lets you buy directly from Amazon or eBay with stablecoins.
Neobanks, payroll tools, card networks, insurance products, AP systems, agent wallets, all different products, but underneath every one of them, the same layer: a stablecoin.
Frontier has made one thing clear: stablecoins are becoming the foundation for real financial workflows. Reflect is building infrastructure for that layer, so founders don’t have to keep rebuilding the floor underneath them.
If you're building with stablecoins, don't hesitate to reach out.
1/ Meet Zachary Wolk (@zachxbt), the crypto investigator who's exposed $500M+ in fraud.
He investigated everyone. Nobody ever investigated him.
I found him in a free neighborhood paper. Also found ~$5M of "donations" from the people who never appear in his threads.

We see the 100x trades and overnight founders not the thousands who failed. Survivorship bias distorts reality.
You don’t need to be a genius.
You need to survive long enough to win.
