The Start In Block Startup Competition Is Open For Applications⚡️
And this year, the stakes are higher.
🏆 $10M+ in prizes
💰 400+ active VCs and investors managing billions
🎤 A chance to pitch on stage at the Louvre
We’re bringing together the most active VCs, funds, and capital allocators backing the next wave of Web3 unicorns.
And what an alumni you will be following. Winners of our previous edition are now building with real traction:
➡️ @glider__, founded by @brianhuang
➡️ @earnos_io, founded by @itsphilgeorge
➡️ @almanaxai, founded by @francescpicc
And they were evaluated by a jury composed of senior investors and operators with direct capital allocation and operating responsibility, including @jakub_rusiecki - @1kxnetwork, @0xjatkins - @Auros_global, @Aisashley - @cryptocom_cap, Nathan Chiron - @iEx_ec, and @akshat_hk - @MaelstromFund.
This year’s jury is being assembled to the same standard, maintaining the level of judgment and accountability that defines Start In Block.
If you’re building in crypto to scale beyond the early cycle, this is where your story gets tested.
Think your startup has what it takes?
