Cosmos Hub Community Pool and Interchain Foundation Grants
Interchain Foundation and Cosmos Hub Community Pool grants for builders developing on Cosmos SDK, IBC, and interchain infrastructure.
About this program
The Interchain Foundation funds Cosmos ecosystem development through direct grants for core infrastructure (Cosmos SDK, IBC, CometBFT), tooling, security audits, and research. Separately, the Cosmos Hub Community Pool, governed by ATOM holders, funds community-proposed projects via governance proposals. Grant sizes vary from small infrastructure work ($5,000) to large strategic engagements ($500,000+). The Foundation also funds Osmosis Grants Program ($5K-$500K) for builders extending the Osmosis AMM.
