Developer Grant Program

On December 2, 2024, G DAO approved Proposal GP35, securing a $5 million budget to fund strategic initiatives within the Gravity ecosystem.

The Gravity Developer Grant Program is a funding initiative designed to support developers and innovators in building applications within the Gravity ecosystem. By empowering builders, Gravity aims to enable the development of tools like decentralized applications, developer infrastructure, and community-driven projects that address user needs, encourage collaboration, and contribute to the ecosystem’s continuous growth.

Build with Gravity

Gravity invites developers and teams to join our ecosystem, utilizing our high-performance infrastructure to build scalable dApps that can drive real-world adoption. To be eligible for the Developer Grant Program, projects must meet one or more of the following criteria:

• Built for Gravity: Projects should either run exclusively on the Gravity Chain or designate Gravity as a primary network in their architecture.

• Mainnet Availability: Projects must have a fully functional Mainnet version that is live and accessible to users.

• Clear Development Roadmap: For projects that are not yet live, a detailed go-to-market (GTM) plan is required. The plan should include development timelines, strategies for acquiring users, and clear launch goals.

Pioneering the Next Phase of Web3

The Developer Grant Program is dedicated to accelerating the development of technologies and tools that drive significant impact within the ecosystem. This includes, but is not limited to, the following key areas:

• Ecosystem dApps: Projects that build directly on Gravity.

• Infrastructure Growth: Solutions that reinforce the network, such as:

  • Wallet systems

  • Centralized exchange support for Gravity Alpha Mainnet

  • Data analytics tools and ranking platforms

  • RPC, API, and Indexer services

  • Stablecoins

  • Security and Bounty Programs: Initiatives aimed at securing the network through bug bounty programs and advanced security infrastructure.
