As the national champions, Chain Reaction will represent Bangladesh at the ​International Blockchain Olympiad (IBCOL)​ in Amsterdam, Netherlands, in November 2024. This will be the second consecutive year that UIU participates in the international competition. In 2023, UIU's "Team Apocalypse" also won Gold at IBCOL, establishing the university's reputation in blockchain technology on the global stage.

The ​Bangladesh Blockchain Olympiad (BCOLBD)​ is an annual platform fostering innovation in blockchain technology. Organised in collaboration with the Bangladesh ICT Division, BASIS, Bangladesh Computer Council, IBCOL, Technohaven, FBCCI, and DU IBA, it is supported by an advisory committee of top professors and scientists from across Bangladesh.
