What is Crypto’s Got Talent

Crypto’s Got Talent (CGT) is the first-ever live talent show dedicated to discovering and supporting the most promising builders in the Decentralized Physical Infrastructure Networks (DePIN) space.

Powered by IoTeX in collaboration with Polygon and ElizaOS, CGT flips the traditional grant model on its head by running the entire selection process live and in public—giving projects unparalleled exposure from day one.

How It Works

How it Works

CGT is structured like a reality show, in three phases:

Phase 1

Live Pitches

Projects apply and pitch live on X Spaces in front of high-profile guest judges, KOLs, and the community. The best pitches move to the next round.

Phase 2

Demos &
Deep Dives

Selected projects return to present product demos or pitch decks in video livestream format, showcasing real-world use cases and infrastructure alignment.

Phase 3

Finale & Funding

The finalists are selected in a live finale episode, where funding is awarded and support from IoTeX kicks into high gear to help them go to market.

I love the space. I love the ideas. Now it’s about showing the roadmap, the market, the solution, and working backward.”

We don’t just want to build for our project—we want to be a physical platform for other DePINs to co-deploy on. Think LEGO.”
