The grant program invites talented teams to submit proposals and implement creative solutions that not only fulfill the program requirements but also contribute to improving the functionality of the DMD Diamond ecosystem in areas such as DeFi, GameFi, NFTs, and more. Selected teams will receive funding to develop ideas, contributing to the goal of creating a decentralized, secure, and interoperable blockchain.

The DMD Diamond grant program aims to accelerate the adoption and development of decentralized applications and tools that leverage blockchain's unique capabilities.

The first wave of grants will fund teams that propose innovative implementations that highlight these features. The grants will focus on practical and scalable solutions that improve user experience and ensure fairness and decentralization. Grants will support projects like DeFi protocols, NFT platforms, gaming applications, and interoperability tools that align with DMD's vision of a multi-layered, multi-chain ecosystem.

Commenting on the grant program launch, Helmut Siedl, blockchain visionary at DMD Diamond, noted:

"​​As a long-standing visionary, I now act more as a mentor. The blockchain can make decisions independently and shape its path into the future through the DAO (Decentralized Autonomous Organization). Indirectly, as part of the DAO, I continue to contribute my part (together with everyone else)."

Evaluation Criteria

The DMD Diamond Community will review proposals based on the following criteria:

  • Innovativeness (30%): How creatively does the company's solution solve a real-world problem using DMD's features?

  • Ecosystem Impact (25%): Will the project drive adoption and bring new utility to the DMD Diamond ecosystem?
  • Community Alignment (20%): Does the company's proposal align with DMD Diamond's vision for a decentralized and interoperable future?

Funding

  • Initial Funding: Up to $5,000 for the top 3 projects that are active on the mainnet for 6 months, with initial funding starting from $100 for successful proposals.
  • Grand Prize: One outstanding project team, after 12 months of active operation on the mainnet, will be awarded a full validator node, giving the team a permanent stake in the network's security and governance.
