The Cartesi Grants Program has announced the launch of its second wave, offering up to $500,000 in CTSI to support innovative projects within its ecosystem. This initiative follows the success of Wave 1, which empowered six grantees with a total funding of $191,000, leading to significant advancements in decentralized applications (dApps) like DCA.Monster and Drawing Canvas.
Wave 2 introduces ‘Intents,’ a strategic framework designed to align community efforts with medium-term objectives. These Intents have been reviewed and approved by the Cartesi community, aiming to enhance focus and success across the ecosystem.
Program Details and Application Process
The Cartesi Grants Program Wave 2 will run for six months, accepting applications on a rolling basis. The program is milestone-based, ensuring that projects align with the Intents. Developers and teams can apply through two main pathways: Request for Proposals (RFPs) and Community Proposals.
RFPs are missions proposed by Cartesi core units and the community, inviting proposals for high-impact work that addresses specific ecosystem needs. Community Proposals allow members to propose their own ideas with actionable steps to achieve the program’s Intents.
To get involved, applicants should review the Wave 2 Intents, explore available RFPs, or submit their own ideas. Resources and documentation are available to strengthen proposals, and support is provided by the Grants Council through the Cartesi Discord.
Opportunities for Broader Community Involvement
The Cartesi Grants Program encourages broader community participation through initiatives like DevDrop and VoterDrop. DevDrop allows individuals to refer applicants and earn $500 in CTSI if their proposal is approved. VoterDrop offers a chance to win $100 in CTSI by staking CTSI and voting on Community Proposals on Snapshot.
Additionally, community members can submit RFP proposals to the Governance Forum and participate in governance by voting on proposals. This engagement helps shape the future of the Cartesi ecosystem.
