Polygon has launched a new grant program under which they will offer developers large grants to help them develop dApps for Polygon’s ecosystem. Polygon’s ecosystem is already one of the largest of the Layer 2 platforms on Ethereum. However, the grants will help to further cement its position as one of the most attractive platforms to develop on.
The new grant initiative will help fund development costs for dApps being deployed to the Polygon zkEVM platform and accelerate the pace at which apps are developed. It will also incentivize prospective developers to join the Polygon zkEVM platform.
Developers currently have the option to apply for Polygon Village grants. Now they’ll have access to these zkEVM grants as well. The decision was announced during the popular All Roads Lead To Polygon (ARLTP) podcast, which was hosted by QuickSwap.
Distribution, strategy, allocation, application reviews, and other grant-related decisions will be made by Polygon’s Community Treasury Board (CTB), which consists of 5 nominated experts.
The ARLTP podcast was joined by several cryptocurrency industry titans and other high profile public figures such as members of the Polygon team, Brave’s VP of operations Luke Mulker, Rogue Bunnies, former SEC attorney Alex Damsker, and CryptoPolitan. It’s continue success has blown away the industry and captivated everyone over the past year. It will be interesting to see if they can continue this success as they rebrand into “The Aggregated ” as they have confirmed to do so the first week of May!
