Status: no application window is currently open on this site.

A coordinated, application-based grants programme run from this site is not open yet. Funding for Ergo ecosystem work today happens primarily through the EIP / Sigmanauts process on GitHub and via direct community proposals on Discord and ergoforum.org. Subscribe below to be notified when an application window opens here, and see the "What we'd fund" section further down for the kinds of work we'd prioritise.

What we'd fund & how decisions get made

When a formal application window opens on this site, the framework below is what we plan to use. Treat it as a preview, not a binding programme document.

Agent-economy primitives: Accord Protocol, ChainCash, MCP/x402 adapters
Independent security audits and threat-model write-ups
Developer documentation, examples and tutorials
Research on eUTXO, Sigma Protocols, NiPoPoWs, oracle design

Funding ranges (planned)

Micro-grants for documentation / examples / one-off fixes
Project grants for SDKs, dApps, tooling — milestone-based
Research grants for protocol-level / cryptography work
Audit co-funding for production-bound deployments

Specific amounts will be published when an application window opens. Today, funding flows through community channels listed above.

Review criteria

Open-source license (MIT, Apache-2.0, GPL or similar)
Clear scope, milestones and acceptance criteria
Public artifacts: repo, docs, demo / testnet deployment
Disclosure of conflicts of interest with reviewers
For production work: a credible audit / security plan

Process & timeline (planned)

Public application form with structured fields
Reviewer panel from the Ergo Foundation, Sigmanauts and ecosystem builders
Initial response within ~14 days of submission
Milestone-based payouts in ERG against on-chain receipts
Review notes published with the recipient's consent

Conflict of interest: reviewers disclose any prior involvement with applicants. Where a clear conflict exists, that reviewer steps out of the decision for that application.
