The way we've all been taught to think about money is broken. BITMELA LAUNCHPAD is an ideathon for builders working at the intersection of Bitcoin, UPI, and Agentic Payments, three rails quietly redefining how money moves in India and beyond. Teams choose one problem track, build a real solution, and go through two evaluation rounds before the Top 5 pitch live at BITMELA, Jaipur, with 4 weeks of dedicated mentorship before the finale. Full track breakdown, timeline, and prizes are in the tabs below. Two things every team must do Complete your registration, including the screening questions and attach a 90-second pitch video. Registration is not considered complete without the pitch video. Keep it simple. You, your phone camera, and a straight walkthrough of the problem, your solution, and why you're the one building it. No editing, no deck, no production value needed.
