Roster check: ethglobal.com/events/tokyo2026/prizes now lists 4 prizes / $40k published — World $15k · 1inch $5k · ENS $10k · Uniswap Foundation $10k. Prize criteria still “coming soon.” Sui is not on the prizes page (was on your 2026-07-14 $55k set). 1inch is the only new partner vs that set.

  1. NEW prize track: 1inch $5k — first non–Jul-14 sponsor; stack push is Developer Portal (17 APIs), Swap API + Pathfinder, Fusion/Fusion+ intent + cross-chain (MEV protection, zero gas as sold). Prize details TBD — design for Swap/Fusion integration now.

  2. Sui off the live prize list — if they reappear later, treat as net-new track; until then don’t bank Tokyo budget on Sui.

  3. Uniswap wedge (quiet official FND window): no good Rust V3/V4 SDK — builder committing to ship V3+V4 Rust SDK + automated concentrated-LP strategies; adoption pain = tooling, not liquidity theory.

  4. ENS / World / UniswapFND official handles: quiet window (no same-day SDK/prize/Tokyo posts from those accounts in-window). Roster pages still the only Tokyo signal for them.

  5. Native AA narrative (your lane): WalletConnect × Base EIP-8130 — WC says partnership to bring native account abstraction to every wallet on all EVM chains; Base-side claims test at vibes.base.org, ~63% cheaper USDC vs 4337, Sep mainnet on Base. Relevant for 7702/embedded-wallet Tokyo demos.

  6. Security (builder-relevant, same window): Allbridge Core paused after incident — official: investigate, withdraw from affected pools, arb window from imbalance; third-party writeup ~$1.66M via flash loan + pool swaps. Bridge/oracle assumption failures = design input for any multi-chain payment demo.

  7. Paid DEV security work still open: Push Chain Dual Defense — L1 audit bounty up to $70k on HackenProof, closes 2026-08-02; $30k smart-contract phase expected; requires PoC.

  8. CCTP/stable rails: pre-positioned Arc CCTP bridge UX — Coinbarrel shipping free ARC CCTP bridge page + contracts before Arc mainnet; pattern matches your rails track (ready day-one bridge UX, not day-one chain).

Build seeds

  1. 1inch Fusion+ “pay any chain, settle best route” embedded wallet — gasless intent swap + CCTP leg for USDC rails; hits new $5k track + your AA stack.
  2. Uniswap “Rust agent LP co-pilot” (or thin TS agent over V4 hooks) — auto-manage concentrated ranges / rebalance from pain of no Rust SDK; UF $10k lane.
  3. World-gated gasless USDC checkout — human-proof (World) + 7702/embedded wallet + 1inch route; dual-apply World + 1inch.
