CoinGraph
CoinGraph helps AI agents and people assess crypto risks before making a transaction. It combines market data, onchain activity and token security checks into clear assessments backed by traceable evidence. From reviewing a trade’s liquidity to checking a wallet’s destination, CoinGraph brings fragmented information together to support more informed decisions.

Kirchhoff
Kirchhoff adds a verification layer to cross-chain token transfers, checking that every credit has a matching debit and that total supply remains backed across chains. Built with Chainlink, it detects discrepancies and can block transfers that fail its checks, helping protect against forged bridge messages and unbacked token creation.
Swarna Nagrani
Zen
Zen helps private credit investors access liquidity sooner by selling accepted redemption claims to professional buyers. It turns verified claims into digital deeds on Solana, with confidential documents and checks powered by Chainlink. Buyers and sellers agree on terms before exchanging the deed and payment in a single transaction.

Null
Null turns plain-language instructions into automated trading strategies on Solana. Users can test their strategies against real trading history and run simulated trades before deploying agents from their own wallets. With transaction-level evidence, spending limits and revocable permissions, the platform makes automated trading more transparent and gives users control over execution.

Hirakumi
Hirakumi helps API owners sell access to AI agents without building new payment infrastructure. It checks each response against agreed requirements, charging only for answers that pass. Built on Cardano, the platform combines bundled payments with escrow and refunds, making it easier for developers to earn revenue while giving agents verifiable service quality.

FAQs
Is there a registration fee?
The event is 100% free — including food, drinks, and full access to the TOKEN2049 conference.
Does TOKEN2049 cover Travel or Accommodation?
No. TOKEN2049 does not cover flights, visa fees, or accommodation. You are responsible for arranging your own travel and stay in Singapore.
Who Should Apply?
Origins is built for people who ship. This is for you if you are:
- Working in a early/growth-stage startup
- An engineer in an enterprise dev team
- A student or researcher
Will there be rest areas at the venue?
Yes. Rest and chill-out spaces are available on a first-come, first-served basis. However, there are no shower facilities at the venue, so we recommend booking comfortable accommodation nearby.
Do I need to be physically present?
Yes. Physical attendance at Marina Bay Sands in Singapore is required for the full 36 hours. We do not offer online or remote participation.
Can you help with Visa invitation letters?
Yes. Confirmed participants who need a visa invitation letter can request one once they are accepted. We'll issue a letter to support your visa application.
How many members are allowed on my team?
Teams can have a maximum of 4 members.
Can I apply as an individual?
Yes. Solo applicants are welcome. If you’d like to join a team but don’t have one, we'll help you find a team.
Can I start working on my project before the event begins?
No. To maintain fairness, all project work must begin after the official hacking period starts. You can brainstorm ideas, but no code, designs, or prototypes before kickoff.
