A total of $100,000 worth prizes are set for 2019. The winner will get $30,000 worth BTM token, the native cryptocurrency of the Bytom blockchain. The two second and three third prize winners will get $10,000 and $5,000 worth BTM tokens each. Bytom will also give $3,000 worth BTM tokens to 10 participants as a recognition award. The preliminary rounds will take place between 3 to 7 August, while the finals will be held on 24th and the 25th.

- Any participant infringing intellectual property will be disqualified.
- Each project registered must be build either on Bytom ecosystem or Bytom smart contract.
