Today, we’re excited to share the first class of grants awarded through Avalanche-X, our accelerator for developers building decentralized financial applications.

Please welcome the first seven grant winners. Thanks to the amazing support and contributions from the Avalanche community, mainnet is on track to launch this summer, and these projects will make the experience on Avalanche even better for developers and users:

  • AVADO — Plug and play hardware blockchain nodes that enable individuals to easily and privately access Web3 applications, participate in staking, and run incentivized Dapps to earn crypto. (@AvadoCloud)
  • Blockchain Academy Chile — Training and education platform for both technical developers and business entrepreneurs to learn about blockchain technology. (@blockacademycl)
  • Figment Networks — Your Web 3 Gateway. Offering institutional-grade infrastructure, software, and governance solutions for networks, token investors, and enterprise clients. (@FigmentNetworks)
  • Jelly Swap — Atomic swaps for peer-to-peer peer trades across different blockchains. (@jelly_swap)
  • Kurtosis Was Framed — A complete, end-to-end testing harness for Avalanche. Think of it like our Ethereum Hive.
  • NoTex — Simple to use word editor and decentralized blogging platform.
  • Protocoh — Nigeria-based team providing the infrastructure for automated payment processing, settlement, and fund transfer instructions in Africa. (@Get_Protocoh)

Through Avalanche-X, we’ll be awarding more grants in the coming weeks and continue to roll-out initiatives like hackathons to bring the best and brightest developers into the Avalanche community. If you haven’t already, explore the open grant opportunities or propose your own moonshot.

We can’t wait to see what you deploy with Avalanche.
