Starknet Community & Shamans Highlights
We’re excited to wrap up Round #1 of Early Adopter Grants (EAG)!
By now, all applicants on this thread should have received their results via email from earlyadoptergrantsATstarknetfoundation.org 184
Remember that Early Adopter grants are for on-chain projects (aka dApps, not off-chain infra) that have already done a lot in the Starknet ecosystem. The grant size was determined by multiple Starknet Foundation committee members, based on how much progress the app has made and how long it’s been part of Starknet, as well as the quality of on-chain activity, innovation, and impact on the ecosystem.
Congrats to all the new grantees (in alphabetical order).
