Too bad when I use PayPal and process the 5$ payment and redirected to the control panel with the account locked. I think this time hackathon is not my time to shine.

For any account or billing-related issues, I could suggest reaching out to the DigitalOCean support team who will be more than happy to assist you with your account issue! :)
Is there any way to compete without having credit card?
Currently, you could choose only between PayPal and Credit card payments during sign up.
Here are the two messages for each payment method again:
Credit card:
“We won’t charge your card. You may see a temporary pre-authorization charge to verify the card, which will be reversed within a week.”
Paypal:
“To confirm your PayPal account, you need to make a $5 pre-payment. This pre-payment will apply to any future bills.”

Hope that helps!
I did reach out to the support of cloudsupport.digitalocean.com, but they replied and it's not possible to restore my access.
But I'm relieved that I got my 5$ back.
