Build Private dApps & Payments on Solana
Privacy isn’t a feature; it’s the next frontier.
As part of Solana Network State [Spring 2026], MagicBlock is sponsoring a $5,000 track prize for teams building privacy-first applications and payment systems on Solana.
Join Andy & Jonas (DevRel @ MagicBlock) for a hands-on session on how to design and ship apps that protect user data, without sacrificing speed, composability, or UX.
💡 What you’ll learn
• How to design private payment flows on Solana• Patterns for shielded balances & sensitive user data• Building x402-style pay-per-use APIs for autonomous agents• Real-world architectures for machine-to-machine payments (MPP)• Key tradeoffs: privacy vs UX vs composability
🧠 Why this matters
Most onchain apps today are fully transparent - great for verification, but limiting for real-world use cases.
Privacy unlocks:
consumer applicationsAI agent economiesenterprise & financial use cases
👉 This is one of the most underbuilt, high-upside areas in the Solana ecosystem right now.
🛠️ Who this is for
• Developers building on Solana• Founders exploring payments, monetization, or AI agents• Teams participating in the Frontier hackathon• Anyone looking to build something differentiated (and fundable)
