what's Celo Developers?
Celo Developers is the official community hub for builders and innovators on the Celo blockchain. It supports developers through resources, events, and programs to create mobile-first applications in DeFi, NFTs, stablecoins, and financial inclusion tools. The account organizes hackathons like Make Crypto Mobile and Proof of Ship, offering prizes, funding, and partnerships to foster ecosystem growth. As part of the Celo ecosystem, Celo Developers emphasizes accessibility, enabling projects that leverage Celo's EVM-compatible Layer 2 architecture. This includes integrations with stablecoins like cUSD and cEUR, and tools for governance participation and ReFi (Regenerative Finance) initiatives. The community drives adoption by connecting builders with over 8 million Celo users worldwide. Key activities include bounties, workshops, and collaborations with partners like Self Protocol and Noah AI, ensuring developers can prototype and launch dApps quickly on Celo's low-cost, fast network.
Celo Developers added 5.2 million new Superchain users in 2025.
