Ecosystem Grant Program Update

With the public announcement of the 3rd wave of grant recipients, Zilliqa also shared some recent updates they’ve made to the grant program structure. The program now has three defined tracks in order to better engage with and guide developers and teams who are interested in building on Zilliqa.

  • Infrastructure track – This track is for builders looking to create open-source development tools, SDKs, mining toolkits or base layer applications (Wallet/Explorer/Analytic tools etc). The goal of this track is to improve on the infrastructure of the Zilliqa ecosystem in order to make it a much more user-friendly environment for Users and Developers alike.
  • Innovation track –  This track is for Entrepreneurs who wish to create decentralized applications (dApps) on the Zilliqa blockchain. dApps include but are not limited to innovative protocols for tokenizing assets, mandating credit issuance, or issuing stablecoins. dApps can also be gaming, news curation, or reputation apps that require a secure but scalable ledger to keep track of all changes.
  • Research track – This track is for Researchers looking to work alongside Zilliqa Research in order to tackle some of the most pressing issues in the industry today. Research topics include but are not limited to cryptography, consensus design, scalability, and privacy.

By way of this new streamlined system, Zilliqa hopes to scale the grant program further as the team looks toward working with wider audiences outside of the immediate blockchain industry. Zilliqa also announced it is now accepting applications for Wave 4.
