Introducing the Vite Ecosystem Fund

To incentivize more projects to be built on the Vite ecosystem, the Vite Labs foundation has set aside 70 million VITE as the Vite Ecosystem Fund. This fund will be utilized through programs such as Vuilder DAO, Hackathons, ViteX Gateway Incentive Plan, SBP DAO program, etc. These programs aim at introducing and empowering more builders to contribute to a vibrant growing Vite ecosystem.
