More than 1,200 builders stepped up to create, experiment, and push the boundaries of what’s possible with .brave domains, Brave Wallet, BAT, and on-chain Web experiences. The challenge—which we introduced in our October announcement and hosted through an official contest hub—brought together designers, developers, creators, and on-chain enthusiasts from around the world, all building fully functioning sites using a .brave domain.
Over several weeks, builders submitted personal websites, on-chain games, interactive experiments, creator tools, and niche utilities that showed just how creative and powerful on-chain website building can be inside the Brave ecosystem.
Now that judging has wrapped and the results are in, we’re excited to share the top 10 winners, our People’s Choice Award recipients, and a curated list of outstanding honorable mentions worth exploring.
What was the .brave Website-Building Challenge?
The 2025 .brave Website-Building Challenge was an open global competition inviting anyone to build a fully functioning website using a .brave domain. Participants were encouraged to claim a domain, create and publish a site, and showcase what an on-chain website could look like in the Brave ecosystem. The challenge ran over a one month period beginning October 15th, 2025 and included a dedicated submission period, three weekly People’s Choice Awards, a full week of judging, and a final winners announcement on November 20.
