Top SchoolAdam Hannigan is a founder-engineer and CEO of Sunflower Land, a Web3 farming game with over 500,000 players and a community of 100+ open-source contributors.

He has led engineering teams at Assignar and Payble and now focuses on solving UX and protocol design challenges in the blockchain space. Adam actively ships and streams his work—integrating features like a blockchain-aware in-game tutorial that required changes to state machines and onboarding flows. Based in Sydney, he pairs a games-development background with practical full-stack skills to create a new genre of gameplay powered by decentralized tech. He’s as comfortable livestreaming community design sessions as he is coding the front-end hooks that make complex blockchain UX feel intuitive.
