Information about the Interchain Foundation Funding Program
The Interchain Foundation (ICF) has a broad mandate to support the development of open-source decentralized networks. This repository contains information about topics eligible for support, application instructions, our review process, and a record of funded projects.
The Interchain Foundation invites individuals, companies and institutions to submit proposals within the following categories. Each category contains a non-exhaustive list of topics, any of which could provide the basis for a successful funding proposal.
All applications are reviewed by the Interchain Foundation as well by external parties within the various Granting Entities and the Technical Advisory Board. Throughout the process additional information may be requested. Find details about the review process here.
