Nearly a billion people in China open an application inside another application every month, and almost none of them think of it as an app at all. That is the model Nimiq is now importing into crypto payments, and it has put $50,000 behind persuading developers to help build it.

Cycle II of the Nimiq Mini Apps Competition opened on 24 August and runs to 18 September, giving developers, AI builders and indie hackers four weeks to ship an open-source Mini App for Nimiq Pay and compete for $17,000 in prizes. It follows an inaugural cycle that drew 62 submissions, and it is the second of three cycles carrying more than $50,000 in total.
