What do you want to build today?
Everything you need to learn and build your first apps on Ethereum
Tokenization
Create a unique token to learn the basics of scaffold-eth.
DEX
Build a simple automated market maker, provide liquidity, and implement token swaps.
Stablecoins
Build a stablecoin and learn stability mechanisms and price oracles.
Challenges and mentorship
Receive mentorship from others, and learn how to collaborate with fellow developers.
SpeedRun Ethereum (opens in a new tab)Get paid well. Stay remote. Build the future.
Over half of blockchain careers are remote-first with some estimates putting the number as high as 70%.
Money you can program
Write code that defines how value moves, when, and to whom. No banks, no intermediaries, just logic you define.
Future-proof skills
Learn the building blocks of the next internet. The tech might evolve, but the principles of web3 are here to stay.
Censorship resistance
Build projects and commerce that can't be silenced by governments, corporations, or algorithms. If it matters, it stays online.
Digital sovereignty
Own your identity, assets, and creations online without relying on platforms that can delete you.
Build onchain with agents
Structured Ethereum knowledge for the agentic stack. Give your AI agent the context it needs to read state, send transactions, and coordinate with protocols, without leaving the model's context window.
Helpful developer resources
Quickstart your idea
