Taiko launches second phase of US$30 million Grants program

Taiko, the second-layer Ethereum network based on zkRollup, announced the launch of Taiko Grants Cycle 2, with a total grant pool of US$30 million. Taiko Grants Cycle 2 includes three major tracks: community, partners, and request for proposals (RFP). The community track is for early-stage projects that plan to build on Taiko, are doing so, or have been deployed. Applications are open from now until January 15, 2024. The partner track is for mature projects or service providers that are already online and want to integrate, support or deploy on Taiko. It will be an ongoing direction and applications will remain open after the end of the Cycle 2 program. The Request for Proposal (RFP) track is open to experienced builders or teams who want to participate in high-impact projects submitted by Taiko Labs and will remain open beyond the Cycle 2 program.
