The Financial Privacy Foundation (FPF) is excited to announce our first experimental grant program: The Financial Privacy Fund (FPF x FPF). This KYC-free* program will fund Zcash ecosystem engineering projects that are nearly complete, or projects that will immediately contribute to the ecosystem and can be completed within the defined funding and timeframe parameters. We want to see gaps filled or bridged as our Community navigates, and successfully integrates, the myriad current and planned Zcash ecosystem engineering projects.
FPF x FPF is launching with very modest funding aimed at perfecting the grant-funding process and hopefully launching future rounds. The maximum grant funding request will be capped at $25,000 and the total funding pool will be $50,000. There is no KYC requirement* and all grants will be paid upon successful completion of all deliverables.
