WTF is FORK THAT Chain?

​Most people follow.
A few build.
And then there is a rare breed that forks.

​​Fork That Chain is a 6-week online summer bootcamp for founders, degens, and crypto builders ready to launch their chain without the infra fatigue.

​​Powered by Aurora Cloud Console and NEAR Protocol, this bootcamp gives you all the tools you need to deploy your own chain (in <1 min), stack integrations from Aurora Marketplace (Billions, Phron AI, DIA, Aleph Cloud, CedeHub & more), and GTM support.

All of this in a game format:  learn -> complete tasks → get XP → get rewarded.

​​No dev team? No problem.
No VC funding? Doesn’t matter.
If the chain you want doesn’t exist — FORK THAT and build it!
