Ecosystem Program
What the Ecosystem needs
As Ethereum continues to grow, there is a need to make the ecosystem more accessible, connected, and grounded in its core values. This program responds to that need by:
- Expanding access to Ethereum for new and diverse audiences, lowering barriers to entry through education, experimentation, and local initiatives
- Bridging Ethereum with other industries and communities, creating spaces where its infrastructure can be explored in real-world contexts
- Promoting and putting into practice Ethereum's core values and CROPS: Censorship Resistance, Open Source, Privacy, and Security, through hands-on experiences
Who can apply
We support initiatives such as meetups, bootcamps, hackathons, roundtables, academic collaborations, and other formats that:
- Bring new people into Ethereum
- Strengthen connections across communities and industries
- Encourage hands-on participation and knowledge sharing
What you can receive
Support may include:
- Up to $500 USD in financial support
- Visibility and amplification across Devcon channels
- Non-financial support (connections, guidance, coordination)

Note: The program will run in two waves. In Wave 1, we prioritize initiatives with the greatest impact.
