About the program
Alephium is a sharded proof-of-work L1 with its own smart contract language. The Alephium Foundation funds builders growing the ecosystem across DeFi, infrastructure, wallets, payments, core tooling, stablecoins, RWAs, DAOs, NFTs and gaming.
There are four application tracks, each with its own form: profit-oriented applications, infrastructure and core tooling, developer experience and education, and community and ecosystem growth. After you apply, the Foundation coordinates with the relevant internal teams, interviews applicants that look like a good fit, and tells you whether you are accepted.
The same page lists two other routes: Blockflow DAO grants, which the Alephium DAO proposes, votes on and funds itself, and a Primevault partnership that offers free custody platform credits and possible funding.
