Base
Protocol·3 programs
Funds builders on Base at every stage, with a strong bias toward rewarding shipped work: weekly activity-based rewards for experiments, fast retroactive ETH grants for live projects, and a cohort-based founder track for teams going full-time.
What Base funds
An eight-week virtual programme for pre-seed teams building on Base. Selected teams are offered a $100K investment from the Base Ecosystem Fund and pitch at Demo Day in New York.
Fast retroactive grants of 1-5 ETH for projects already live on Base; the Base team finds recipients through its own discovery process and community nominations rather than an application form.
A weekly 2 ETH pool distributed to active Base builders based on what they actually shipped that week, with no proposal and no minimum project size.
