Builder Bunker is where the BNB Chain builder community comes together—not just to work, but to connect, collaborate, and grow.
This isn’t your typical co-working space. It’s a shared base for those in the trenches—founders, developers, creators, and dreamers who are all-in on building the future of web3.
At the Builder Bunker, you’re never building alone. You’re surrounded by people who speak your language, help sharpen your ideas, and have your back. Whether you’re fine-tuning a protocol, figuring out go-to-market, or just sharing a drink after a long build day—this is your home base.
What’s Inside BNB Chain’s Builder Bunker
BNB Chain is setting up a dedicated space in New York City for a 6-month test mission—and it’s fully loaded with what real builders need:
- Co-working desks for committed BNB Chain projects
- Office hours with BNB Chain and YZi Labs
- Weekly builder drinks to wind down and meet like-minded teams
- Workshops, sprints, and AMAs tailored to founders and devs
- Demo Days and community events to help you ship and shine
- Drop-ins from ecosystem partners, VCs, and surprise guests
Whether you’re looking for deep focus or casual conversation, the Builder Bunker adapts to your style of building.
Why We’re Launching This
BNB Chain is more than infrastructure—it’s a community. And that community deserves a space to work, think, and grow together.
We’ve seen what happens when builders have a real place to sync up. Progress accelerates. Connections multiply. Ideas evolve faster.
That’s the whole idea behind the Builder Bunker: a place to go all-in, with support from the ecosystem around you.
It’s mission-driven, but also social. Serious about shipping, but open to the serendipity that happens when good people build in the same room.
Who It’s For
The Builder Bunker is built for:
- Web3 projects building or planning to build on BNB Chain
- Infrastructure teams looking to plug into the ecosystem
- Founders already accepted into YZi Labs’ Easy Residency and BNB Chain’s Most Valuable Builder (MVB) program and independent builders who want to be part of something bigger
If you’re putting in the work and want a community that moves with you—this is your base.
Your Place in the Ecosystem Starts Here
The Builder Bunker is a starting point (and a checkpoint) for anyone serious about building on BNB Chain. It’s where ideas get sharpened, teams get stronger, and builders stay close to the action.
If you’ve been building from the sidelines, this is your call to gear up and plug in or if you’re already in the trenches, now you’ve got backup.
How to Apply
Access is limited, and we’re curating a tight group of high-intent builders.
We’ll be reviewing each application based on your goals, your commitment to BNB Chain, and your willingness to contribute to the community inside the Bunker.
If selected, you’ll get a 2-month residency with the chance to extend based on how things go. Bring your team, bring your grit, and let’s build something real.
