Web3 and onchain funding
A checked list of web3 and onchain funding for AI and tech builders, with the eligibility gates spelled out: what it costs you, who can apply, and from where.
15 programmes
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.
Rolling milestone-based grants for public goods on Solana; no grant size is published, and applications are reviewed continuously.
A 12-week in-person London accelerator for eight teams building the Machine Economy; $300,000 per team for equity plus a future token allocation, with up to $1M in follow-on.
Rolling milestone-based convertible grants for public goods that have a commercial component; no amount or conversion terms are published.
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.

Open applications for up to $10,000 for new and established projects, community initiatives, developers and other early work building on Avalanche.
Grants awarded against ESP Wishlist items, which define high-level goals and stay open rather than running to a deadline. No Wishlist items were live at the time of capture.
Forward-looking grants for already-launched Superchain apps: you submit a growth plan with KPIs and a requested allocation, reviewed by the Grants Council in a dated season window.
Numbered, dated grant rounds you apply into; matching funds are pooled from partners and allocated per-domain by mechanisms chosen by that domain's allocator.
Active Ethereum L1 core protocol contributors receive a continuously streamed share of donated funds, weighted by how long they have been contributing; there is no application, an existing member nominates you by pull request.
Up to $30,000 for startups and established Avalanche projects selected through monthly committee nominations and votes; there is no public application.
Small grants for grassroots Ethereum initiatives in the run-up to Devcon 8: meetups, bootcamps, hackathons, roundtables and academic collaborations.
