With the growth of the Cronos ecosystem, the chain announced a grant program for "talented individuals & teams who are passionate and committed about building incredible products."
The program was established in December 2021 with the objective:
- To support early-stage projects on Cronos by bootstrapping initial product development and providing monetary, technical, and marketing support
- To align incentives together with new builders and teams by helping their projects grow together with the broader ecosystem
Over 150 such teams applied for the fourth batch of the Cronos ecosystem grant, and Grindery is thrilled to be among the five chosen for this opportunity to build innovative products, especially within an underserved vertical within Cronos.
DAOs that operate on Cronos will be able to leverage Grindery's Nexus to automate and connect dApps & protocols to exchange data, payments & services, starting with DAO payouts & payroll.
The Grindery team is anxiously anticipating working with the Cronos community for feedback and engagement.
About Cronos
Cronos (cronos.org) is the first EVM-compatible Layer 1 blockchain network built on the Cosmos SDK, supported by Crypto.com, Crypto.org, and more than 300+ app developers and partners. Cronos is building an open ecosystem where developers can create their own DeFi and GameFi applications, targeting a base of 50+ million users globally. Earlier this year, Cronos Labs launched a $100M Accelerator program to help developers build new projects and the future of Web3 within the Cronos ecosystem.
When developers build on Cronos, they can leverage all Ethereum developer tools (i.e. Solidity, Truffle, Hardhat, OpenZeppelin, Web3.js, ethers.js, ChainSafe Gaming SDK); leading crypto wallets (i.e. MetaMask, Crypto.com Defi Wallet, Trust Wallet); wrapped versions of the world’s top 50 cryptocurrencies; Cronos Play, a suite of developer tools for Unity, C++ and Unreal engine; and inter-blockchain communication (IBC) cross-chain connectivity to Cosmos chains; and as well as a rich ecosystem of composable DeFi and GameFi dApps.
