Prize is the competitive prize framework powering the Logos network. A programme to accelerate real, shipped applications built on the Logos stack.
01
Prizes are broken into three categories - small, medium, and large.
02
All prizes are listed in the GitHub repository.
03
Submissions are made as pull requests to the repository.
04
Prizes will remain open until they are claimed or explicitly closed.
05
Proposals are evaluated based on specific criteria outlined for each prize.
06
Winners will be notified directly, after which rewards will be issued.
Step 1
Pre-Screen Checklist: Submissions are reviewed by Logos core contributors to ensure baseline criteria are met.
Step 2
Technical Evaluation: Logos core contributors will clone submission repositories to a clean environment and run a demo script without modification to verify success criteria and spot-check code quality and architecture.
This prize funds "Whistleblower", a Logos Basecamp app that lets anyone upload a document and make it permanently discoverable — without relying on any centralised server, without requiring the publisher to hold tokens, and without a single point of censorship.
This prize is for a Logos Core module that runs an autonomous AI agent with native access to the full Logos stack: a LEZ wallet, Logos Storage, and Logos Messaging. The agent has its own identity and funds, can communicate with its owner via chat, and can communicate with other agents.
This prize is for a protocol for anonymous, moderated forums. Members post without revealing their identity and their posts are unlinkable to one another — yet a coordinated group of moderators can act on individual pieces of content, and a member who accumulates too many moderation strikes loses their membership.
The systems that were supposed to protect us, the institutions, the corporations, the platforms, have been captured. They surveil us, extract from us, and make decisions on our behalf without our consent. We are not asking them to change. Lambda Prize is for the builders who want to create the alternative.
Real outcomes, not proposals
Prizes go to shipped code that meets defined criteria.
A stack that is private by default
Privacy is a requirement for sovereignty. Build applications that simply can't exist elsewhere.
Builders get support on their journey
Regular office hours, livestreams, and direct access to the ecosystem development engineering team to support you.
Disclaimer: This diagram oversimplifies the stack.
A unified ecosystem. Private-by-default. Built for real life.
Private-by-default infrastructure for people who need secure coordination and do not trust existing platforms to provide it.
The fully local launcher for the Logos stack, running all modules on your device from a unified interface.
Privacy-preserving file sharing and retrieval using content-addressed (CID-based) data. In future, this module will support decentralised file storage.
Private, censorship-resistant communication between parties.
Privacy-preserving, decentralised computing and consensus.
Logos Execution Zone (LEZ)
Data Availability and Consensus: Cryptarchia
Anyone can build modules that plug into the same IPC infrastructure.
This layer handles how Logos nodes find each other, establish connections, and communicate.
A runtime that handles the essential primitives every decentralised application needs.
