I Predicted Bitcoin's Drop With AI… Then Found a Bigger Problem: Monad Blitz Hackathon in Beijing & Hangzhou

The Contract That Broke Me

I was debugging a liquidity pool on Monad Testnet at 2 AM when the gas price spiked—not because of market chaos, but because someone had forgotten to validate the oracle. The transaction reverted. No error message. Just silence. That’s when it hit me: machines don’t lie—but they write poems if you let them.

Code Is Poetry, Not Just Infrastructure

Monad’s Blitz Hackathon in Beijing and Hangzhou isn’t about winning $1000. It’s about asking who gets to read the chain. We’re not here to optimize EVM performance—we’re here to rebuild trust in decentralized systems. The morning session? Deep dives into Solidity patterns like jazz improvisation. The afternoon hack? Teams of three, coding through midnight with zero sleep, arguing over ABI encodings like rappers debating meter.

Trust Isn’t Deployed—It’s Written

The evening ceremony isn’t voting for winners—it’s voting for truth. When your smart contract reverts silently, who do you blame? The algorithm? The network? Or the person who wrote it without listening? My father taught me: “Code is law.” My mother taught me: “Law without empathy is violence.” This hackathon isn’t about tech—it’s about whose voice gets heard on-chain.

Why You Should Show Up

Come not for the prize. Come because you’ve seen a revert that felt like grief. Come because you believe transparency should be coded, not contracted. Come because silence speaks louder than gas fees.
