No, it’s not just a collection of buzzwords. It’s a real opportunity.
The Zcash Foundation is seeking grant proposals. You — yes, you!—are encouraged to apply. The deadline for initial proposals is May 18 (two weeks from now).
About us: The Zcash Foundation is a nonprofit organization that exists to promote financial privacy through technology, with a particular focus on the cryptocurrency Zcash and its underlying cryptographic innovations.
We have a total budget of $250,000 for this round of our grants program. All of it will be dispensed as discretionary funds. The specific amount for each grantee will vary based on project scope.
Desired applicants: Any person with skills related to computer science, cryptography, programming, mathematics, or community development.
Additional information:
For context, the last time we ran this grant program, there were 27 applicants. Their proposals and the feedback they received are still visible. Ultimately 10 grants were awarded, and grantees received amounts from $4,500 to $30,000.
In addition to requesting grant proposals, we want you to know about Zcon0, the Zcash Foundation’s inaugural conference. It takes place in Montréal from June 26–28. The cost is $900, but some financial assistance is available.
