title: Interact with sBTC
description: Build an app or feature that integrates with sBTC. Compete for your scholarship.
---

**Timeline**: March 26 - April 1, 2025

This month's challenge is to build with [sBTC](https://www.stacks.co/sbtc), the new programmable Bitcoin-backed asset on Stacks. Since its launch in December, sBTC has brought $260M+ of BTC liquidity directly to Stacks. With sBTC withdrawals going live on March 31st, there's never been a better time to start building with sBTC, and this is your perfect opportunity to get started.

We will be awarding 2 developer scholarships to 2 different winners this month. Each scholarship will receive **hotel accommodations**, a **$1,000 travel stipend**, and tickets to **Bitcoin 2025** in Las Vegas.

Submit your project [here](https://hirohacks25.paperform.co/).

Your submission can be a full-fledged application, or a new feature in your existing project. The only requirements are that it has to interact with sBTC in some way and that you build something new during the window of this hack.

## Some hack ideas to get you started

- A cli command for transferring sBTC
- An analytics dashboard for sBTC activity
- Any kind of smart contract functionality that interacts with sBTC

Have fun. Build something new. Compete against other devs for Hiro swag and your seat in a [hacker house](#prizes) coming later this year.

## Prizes

At the end of each monthly hack, Hiro will host a livestream on X going over submissions and announcing that month's winning developer. The prize? Fame, glory and Hiro swag.
For March's hack, we will be awarding 2 developer scholarships to 2 different winners. Each developer scholarship includes **hotel accommodations**, a **$1,000 travel stipend**, and **tickets to [Bitcoin 2025](https://b.tc/conference/2025)** in Las Vegas this May.

Top developers from these monthly hacks will be invited to participate in a Hiro hacker house tied to one of the year's biggest conferences, key expenses covered. We'll share more details on that house soon, so stay tuned.
Code your way to Vegas and spend time with Stacks builders while diving into the zany world of the biggest Bitcoin conference of the year.
