Panvala, a donor-driven platform that rewards the work that improves the Ethereum ecosystem, announced its fourth batch of grants has now been finalized.
The awards went to firms, projects, and individuals who are addressing the challenges, upgrading the infrastructure, and improving the Ethereum community.
“The success of Ethereum depends on its diverse and devoted community; each of our grantees approaches the network and its needs differently, but they all make Ethereum better. Panvala’s community is proud to be able to give back to the people and organizations that have done so much for the vision.”
