TL;DR: You can earn on Boundless by winning bounties, competing in hackathons, or delivering grant milestones. All three pay in USDC, all three build one shared reputation, and you can do all three from a single account.
The three ways to earn
Bounties
Paid tasks. Apply or submit your work, and the best submission wins.
Hackathons
Time-boxed events. Build a project, submit it, and win a share of the prize pool.
Grants
Milestone funding. Apply with a plan, get selected, and get paid as you ship each milestone.
How they differ
Getting started
- Find opportunities across every pillar.
- Read the rules for the one you want, then apply, submit, or register.
- When work is approved, escrow settles your payout in USDC, usually within about a minute.
