We support the BNB Chain community during all times, both good and bad, and we want to help projects buidling on BNB Chain in exploring the uncharted territory.

As previous bear market cycles showed, these volatile downturns quickly become the survival of the fittest and a fantastic opportunity to build a long-lasting and popular project. That's why today we're announcing the fifth season of the Most Valuable Builder accelerator program fittingly titled #MVBV - Uncharted Territory.

#MVBV - Uncharted Territory

The main focus of this season of MVB is to explore new opportunities and help emerging projects get a kickstart at success. The current crypto landscape is highly volatile, but the #MVBV program offers a beacon of stability and innovation for those hungry to buidl.

Downturn markets are an opportunity to shape the future of crypto as all the noise cools down, and dedicated developers can focus on building products that users enjoy and benefit from. To help new and emerging projects get better access to the tools they need, we're bringing you a partnership between BNB Chain and Binance Labs, who carry years of experience building in unexplored territories.

Together we will focus on helping projects grow more organically through coaching and investments.

#MVBV starts and opens to applications on May 31. The application window will close on June 24. In late June, we will announce the successful projects which will join the MVB accelerator program and go through intensive coaching and workshops for 6-8 weeks.

Who's #MVBV for?

We're looking for projects that need acceleration and that drive innovation and progress within the BNB Chain ecosystem as well as the whole blockchain industry. We welcome projects in all stages and at all valuations.

The focus is on finding projects with a unique market fit and a secure environment that delivers high-performing and efficient innovations to the ecosystem.

To name a few areas of interest:

  • Infrastructure: middleware, cross-chain, security/risk control tools
  • DeFi: advanced DeFi, portfolio management, stream pay
  • GameFi: play to earn, game development tools
  • SocialFi: fan engagement platforms, creator content tools
  • Metaverse: virtual platforms, analytics & development tools

However, we encourage all kinds of innovators to apply if they believe they're buidling a unique product.
