What is the Osmosis Grants Program?

The Osmosis Grants Program (OGP) was created to award $5k-$500k of funding to Osmosis community members for the completion of value-add tasks which may be too small to be funded through a governance proposal.

We believe the community needs to start spending the Community Pool’s funds aggressively to encourage experimentation and innovation, grow the ecosystem, and onboard full-time contributors that could increase the value of the protocol by hundreds of millions of dollars.

A grants program is an efficient, low cost way to do this –– by empowering community participants and supporting teams building applications which leverage the Osmosis stack.

How do I apply?

Fill out this application form. The application will only be shared with the Program Lead and members of the Reviewer Committee. The Lead will contact you directly if the application is successfully considered for a Grant.

How will I be compensated?

The Program Lead will work with you to establish possible milestones that could help split up the compensation so as to allow payment whenever a milestone is hit.

If no milestones can be determined, the Grant will be paid a portion upfront to cover costs and the remaining total once the grant is successfully completed.

<aside> 💡 All payments will be made in OSMO or USDC

</aside>

If you would like to get paid in OSMO and are asking for a fixed dollar amount of compensation, the number of OSMO you will receive will be determined by the price of OSMO at the time of payment.

Can I apply as a U.S. based person/company?

Yes!

<aside> ❗ Please note that all applicants who are located in the United States will receive payments in USDC instead of OSMO (due to legal concerns)
