Will Meta Hacker Cup 2025 Happen This Year?
By Duukh, history, 9 months ago, In English

Hey everyone,

We're already in August 2025, and many of us are starting to wonder… Where is the Meta Hacker Cup 2025 announcement?

Last year, registration opened on July 24th, and the contest has traditionally started around this time every year.

So far, there has been no official blog post, no website update, no public registration link — nothing.

This silence is worrying, especially in a time when other major contests like Google Code Jam and Kick Start have been officially discontinued. Hacker Cup has always been one of the few remaining global gems of competitive programming, and we really don’t want to lose it too.

Are you deliberately using the word happen instead of take place?

I’ve just recently come across Meta Hacker Cup.

I am aiming for T-Shirt

Can someone inform me about the type of problems in hacker cup Is it more aligned with Codeforces , Atcoder , or any other platform to be precise are there a lot of Adhoc , Data structure heavy , or any specific topic

Also, apart from solving problems from previous years, what other resources would you recommend to prepare effectively?

Thanks in advance!
