Greetings from the Ethereum Foundation Grants Team!

With Devcon 4 in full swing, we’re back to announce Wave 4 of our grant program! Thank you to all our fantastic community members who submitted creative ideas on how to strengthen our ecosystem. Without the time and energy you invest in Ethereum, we wouldn’t exist. As the program continues to grow, we will continue to involve more community members in the decision-making process. Today’s grants program has improved significantly compared to earlier this year thanks to helpful feedback from the community, allowing us to provide better public tools and infrastructure.

If you haven’t heard of us before, we went in depth about the program’s history, funding summary, and process in our last presentation. Find that post hereYou can check guidelines, etc. here.
