London, United Kingdom — The Scoop AI Hackathon is arriving in London for its third global stop, calling on developers to build the next generation of AI agents and autonomous Web3 applications using SpoonOS, the agentic operating system powered by Neo.
Co-hosted with Encode Club, one of the world’s leading developer communities in emerging technology, the London event blends in-person and online participation and will take place from December 6–7, 2025, at Encode Hub (41 Pitfield St, London N1 6DA, UK).
Developers can register via Encode Club’s official page, while participants and enthusiasts can join the wider community through Luma to network, collaborate, and learn.
A Battle Royale for Builders
The London edition introduces a Battle Royale–style format, turning the traditional hackathon into an elimination challenge with three checkpoints. Teams that hit each benchmark move to the next round, culminating in final submissions on December 7 at noon.
Participants will compete across five tracks for a total $10,000 GAS prize pool:
AI for Science – Accelerate discovery through data analysis, simulation, or hypothesis generation.
AI for DeFi and Payments – Build smarter trading agents, improve risk management, and create intelligent payment systems.
Vibe Coding for Web3 – Develop creative or playful on-chain experiences beyond traditional development.
AI Prediction Markets – Design autonomous systems for forecasting and trading.
AI Agents with Web3 – Create self-executing agents that make decisions and perform on-chain actions.
Top winners will take home $2,500 for first place, $1,500 each for two second-place teams, $1,000 for three third-place winners, and $500 each for three Excellence Award recipients.

ElevenLabs Joins as Technology Partner
AI voice platform ElevenLabs will join the London stop to empower participants with advanced voice generation tools for their projects. All participants receive three months of Creator-tier access, while the overall winning team will earn three months of Pro-tier access, and the top ElevenLabs-integrated project will receive six months of Scale-tier access.
“London’s developer scene thrives at the intersection of creativity and technology. Together with SpoonOS and ElevenLabs, we’re giving builders the tools to bring truly autonomous, intelligent systems to life.”
Encode Club Rep
Encode Club, known for its global network of top developers, professionals, and students, has hosted dozens of hackathons and bootcamps around the world. Its newly launched Encode Club serves as London’s dedicated home for the AI and Web3 community — a collaborative space for creators to co-work, host events, and connect with like-minded builders.
Building the Sentient Economy
The Scoop AI Hackathon series — co-hosted by Neo, the open-source blockchain behind the Smart Economy, and SpoonOS, its next-generation agentic operating system — spans eight cities worldwide, including Moscow, Hanoi, Tokyo, Seoul, Silicon Valley, Hyderabad, Beijing, and London.
Running from October 2025 to January 2026, the global tour features a combined $100,000 prize pool and aims to spotlight developers shaping the intersection of AI and blockchain.
The program’s mission is to discover world-class talent capable of building a more transparent, efficient, and inclusive digital economy — one driven by intelligent agents that can act, transact, and evolve autonomously.
Powered by Neo, SpoonOS provides the underlying infrastructure for this new era. It offers a full developer toolkit, native data services, and seamless integration across decentralized systems, allowing AI agents to operate with interoperability, transparency, and on-chain autonomy.
By combining AI innovation with Web3’s trustless architecture, SpoonOS enables developers to create verifiable, intelligent applications that learn and adapt across networks.
