About the Hackathon
# Build next-gen mini dApps
**Hack The Grid** is a 4-Level builder program by [LUKSO](https://x.com/lukso_io), designed to push mini dApps to the next level. It’s your chance to experiment with **AI agents, social DeFi, creator monetization, gamification**, or something entirely new. [The Grid](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xWJo0OfOpTw) opens up new possibilities for builders, turning [Universal Profiles](https://x.com/ERC725Account) into dynamic, interactive spaces where digital identity, social interaction, and creativity collide.
# Timeline and Funding Breakdown
**Hack The Grid** is structured across four levels, running from **February to April 2025**, with a **total funding pool of $150,000 in LYX** distributed across the levels. Builders can join remotely at any stage and participate in multiple levels. Winning projects from Levels 1–3 will qualify for Level 4, the Community Grants Round, for additional funding.
