Pitch Day at The Bitcoin Conference is back! Bitcoin Magazine and The Bitcoin Conference are looking for the next wave of Bitcoin startups to compete in the ultimate Bitcoin pitch competition. Taking place in Nashville July 25-27 at Bitcoin 2024, the world’s largest Bitcoin conference, founders will present their vision on Bitcoin’s biggest stage to panels of judges across 6 categories.
Pitch Day at the Bitcoin Conference has highlighted elite Bitcoin startups across the ecosystem since 2021 with previous winners including: Debifi, Geyser Fund, Nunchuck, Alby, The Bitcoin Company, Elixir Games, and 24 Exchange.
The categories for this year’s competition include Layer 2 + Scaling Technology, Mining + Energy, Investing (Alpha), Open Source, Ordinals, and Locals Only (Nashville-based startups).
In the Layer 2 + Scaling Technology track, the focus is on identifying top founders and companies working on applications related to Lightning, alternative Layer 2 proposals, cross-chain settlement, and the utilization of newly identified tech including BitVM.
The Mining + Energy track will bring together innovators creating novel business applications for bitcoin mining, hardware, software, and firmware for operations, as well as the digital infrastructure for enabling the growth of bitcoin mining around the world.
The Investing track, also known as The Bitcoin Alpha Competition, seeks to identify the next top Bitcoin fund manager to offer $1 million USD in seed capital to deploy their strategy.
Open source technology lies at the heart of Bitcoin, and the Open Source track will recognize the top open source projects in the Bitcoin ecosystem.
Ordinals have exploded onto the scene in the past year, and the Ordinals track is seeking the top projects utilizing inscriptions – whether that is in the form of digital collectibles or the infrastructure enabling the growth of ordinals as a whole.
Pitch Day is coming to Nashville, and the Locals Only track is putting the top Nashville-based Bitcoin startups on the map, no matter what sector of the Bitcoin economy they operate in.
Interested startups and open source projects may apply to compete in Bitcoin Pitch at Bitcoin 2024. Sponsorship opportunities are also available for those interested in supporting the competition.
Don’t miss your chance to be a part of this exciting event and showcase your Bitcoin startup to the world!
