A competitive prize framework for the Logos ecosystem. λPrize targets contributions where Logos cares about the outcome but not the path.
Note
By participating in λPrize, including by submitting a solution or pull request, you agree to the Terms & Conditions. Please read them before submitting.
Logos is a social movement and decentralised technology stack.
The Logos stack comprises three core layers:
- Blockchain - A privacy-preserving Layer 1 for execution, settlement, and coordination. The Logos Execution Zone (LEZ) is the programmable environment where decentralised applications run, featuring a unique separation of public and private state with shielded balances and private state as first-class primitives.
- Storage - Durable, censorship-resistant data availability powering fully decentralised apps and file sharing.
- Messaging - Private peer-to-peer communication that resists surveillance and censorship.
Together these form a unified, modular ecosystem, accessible through Logos Core, a plugin-based runtime that lets developers compose all three layers into privacy-preserving applications.
All prizes live in the [prizes/](prizes/) directory. Each prize is a markdown file following the LP-XXXX naming convention.

- Copy
[prizes/LP-0000.md](prizes/LP-0000.md)toprizes/LP-XXXX.md, whereXXXXis the next available number. - Fill in all sections except Prize Structure (prize pool, revision date) — these are determined by the Logos team.
- Open a pull request titled
LP-XXXX: <Prize Title>.
Evaluation is first-come-first-served by default: the first submission that meets all success criteria wins. Single winner unless otherwise specified in the prize.
Solutions live in the [solutions/](solutions/) directory. To submit a solution:
- Create a markdown file in
solutions/matching the prize identifier — e.g.,solutions/LP-0001.mdfor prizeLP-0001. - Fill in the solution template: describe your approach, link to the repository containing the implementation, and attach any supporting materials.
- Open a pull request titled
Solution: LP-XXXX — <Short Description>.
If multiple solutions target the same prize, the first submission that satisfies all success criteria wins unless specified otherwise. A solution PR is timestamped by its opening date.
Important
Parallel Society Launch Event
λPrize launches at Parallel Society, a Logos-run event in Lisbon on 6–7 March 2026, via a dedicated hackathon platform. During the event, submissions are accepted only through the event portal. The event follows an in-person hackathon format — submissions are subject to judging and the best solution is selected — so the rules deviate slightly from the first-come-first-served process described here.
Submissions through this repository open on 8 March 2026 and follow the standard first-come-first-served process. However, Parallel Society submissions that are still being evaluated take precedence: a solution submitted here before a Parallel Society entry has been reviewed does not receive priority over that entry.
All participants are bound by the Terms & Conditions. Key points:
- Submissions must be licensed under MIT or Apache 2.0.
- One submission per prize per participant/team.
- Logos retains sole discretion over evaluation and prize awards.
- Submissions are public and non-confidential.
- See the full Terms & Conditions for eligibility, IP, liability, and other provisions.
