As the DIP061 proposal passed with 100% of votes in favor, we are thrilled today to unveil the dForce Grants Program (DGP), a groundbreaking initiative designed to fuel the innovative spirit of the dForce community!
Committed to nurturing creativity and propelling the dForce ecosystem to new heights, the DGP is a community-driven venture that seeks to fund imaginative projects and fortify the bonds within our dynamic community. Keep reading to discover our latest initiative in details!
Background and mission
At the core of the DGP lies a commitment to provide essential resources for the expansion of the dForce ecosystem. With the grant program, our mission is to empower developers, innovators, and community members by offering financial support, technical assistance, and consultancy to bring visionary projects to life within the dForce network.
How can you apply for a grant?
To put the potential of the DGP to test, we will start by running a pilot program spanning two quarters with a generous budget of up to $50,000 in $DF tokens, available under two types of grants as follows:
- Micro grants: <$5,000
- Community grants: $5,000~$50,000
Before applying, make sure you read everything about our grant categories, the grant committee, the application process, and more on our dedicated forum post.
Then, you can publish a proposal on our forum following the template given in the post above.
The dForce Grant Committee will diligently assess the program’s impact at the conclusion of the initial two quarters, actively seeking community feedback to determine the potential extension of this initiative.
Arbitrum Integration Incentive
Moreover, with dForce recently securing an STIP grant from the Arbitrum ecosystem, we are eager to further stimulate growth by launching a parallel 60-day campaign featuring an open grant, paid in ARB tokens, to incentivize protocol integrations with USX and/or Unitus on the Arbitrum network. It’s essential to note that all STIP incentives received through the dForce Grants Program must adhere to the Arbitrum STIP Eligibility Requirements, detailed in this post.
Conclusion
Through the DGP, we aim not only to enhance the dForce ecosystem but also to foster a thriving environment where creativity, collaboration, and progress flourish. Join us on this exciting journey as we launch the dForce Grants Program. Together, let’s shape the future of decentralized finance!
