Hackathon Galáctica: Foundation of Agentic Payments is the first hackathon in Tether's Hackathon Galáctica series—an online program designed to explore agents as economic infrastructure and accelerate the next generation of agentic builders.

From 25.02.2026 to 22.03.2026, developers will build AI agents and applications that hold wallets, move money, and settle value onchain—powered by self-custodial infrastructure across 6+ chains.

AI agents are no longer just tools — but they are also not social experiments.

In this hackathon, we explore agents as economic infrastructure: autonomous systems that execute tasks, manage capital, and interact with onchain logic under clearly defined constraints.

→ Builders define the rules → Agents do the work → Value settles onchain

Rather than optimizing for discourse, engagement, or popularity, projects are evaluated on correctness, autonomy, and real-world viability.

While others chase hype, we build what lasts.
