We are a community of Tokyo-based developers and professionals, driven by a shared sense of cypherpunk ethos and optimism for the future, dedicated to advance the development and adoption of Ethereum.

2025 theme: Emancipatory Tech for Future of Humanity

Emancipation begins in the mind; let us radically reimagine how we can harness technology to empower people, preserve culture, and build a sustainable future in ways not possible today.

The goal is to innovate not for its own sake, but to envision new ways and better approaches to do things through reshaping and redefining the constraints of our own constructed reality.

🥷Cypherpunks Anonymous

Privacy & SecurityPrize: $3000

In a world where surveillance and data exploitation have become the norm, privacy is not just a right — it's a necessity. The Cypherpunk movement emerged to challenge this status quo, using cryptography as a tool to empower individuals to reclaim control over their digital lives.

Counterculture Capital

Financial InnovationPrize: $3000

Five years after DeFi Summer, we've witnessed the evolution from simple token swaps to sophisticated financial instruments rivaling traditional markets in complexity and capability. From lending protocols to prediction markets that democratize forecasting and information discovery, DeFi continues to drive the ongoing financial revolution.

💚Actually Intelligent

AI & SocietyPrize: $3000

The well-praised technological breakthrough that is Artificial Intelligence faces a dilemma. Behind the convenience it offers, the technology is increasingly being appropriated into manipulative ad engines and corporate-enterprise surveillance. At ETHTokyo, we're here to flip that.
