The EDF is a strategic pool of funds distributed by Polymesh Labs in the form of USD or POLYX to advance adoption, support integrations, and incentivize ecosystem growth. Find more information on the EDF program at polymesh.network/ecosystem-development-fund. 

The Grants Program offers structured support in the form of POLYX to open-source projects building tools, infrastructure, or integrations that align with Polymesh’s long-term objectives.

Support may include POLYX grants, technical integration assistance, design consultation, or co-marketing opportunities.

Note that the scope of our grants initiatives consists of funding and feedback on delivered milestones. While Polymesh Labs may not provide direct hands-on support, we will do our best to direct you to the correct resources (either internally or via a third-party). 

Grant sizes vary based on project scope, value, and potential impact on the Polymesh ecosystem. For the Grants Program, grants will be capped at  US$10,000, US$30,000, or US$50,000 equivalents depending on your grant level. For the EDF, you will be required to outline project milestones, estimated timelines, and approximate grant dollar amounts required.

Applications are submitted through Polymesh Labs. Each proposal is evaluated on merit, feasibility, and alignment with ecosystem goals.
