Web3 Infrastructure Eligibility

This round aims to strengthen the Ethereum ecosystem's foundational infrastructure by supporting projects crucial for its development, scalability, and security. We seek to fund initiatives that focus on core client teams and development, staking infrastructure and diversity, decentralized identity and cross-layer solutions, security and scalability innovations, wallet security and privacy technologies, and standardization and future-proofing efforts. Successful projects will demonstrate a significant contribution to the Ethereum network's infrastructure, addressing both foundational needs and innovative solutions to current challenges, while engaging in pioneering development that promises to elevate the ecosystem, particularly in areas of privacy, interoperability, and user experience.
