ANNOUNCING THE SECOND WAVE OF ZILLIQA ECOSYSTEM GRANT AWARDEES

It is believed that a blockchain protocol does not have the ability to prosper without a proficient company looking to build on it. That is the reason why the #BuildonZIL program was started— to search for very talented and endowed individuals and crews to build on the existing protocol.

The theme for this second wave is User and Developer experience. Blockchains, being very difficult for people new to the space, has always been a pain point in the industry. Therefore, it is decided that this wave of grants should go to projects looking to improve Zilliqa’s ease of development and user experience.
