Exploring grants for Web3 builders: By Solo Stakers Guild
The Solo Stakers Guild gathers again in Taipei on 26th May 2025!
This time, we are inviting a domain expert of the Web3 grants ecosystem to share his knowledge with us.
Whether you are an existing Web3 builder or have always wanted to be one, get the boost needed to kickstart your journey!
PS: We believe that Ethereum Solo Stakers are power users of the Ethereum ecosystem and have strong potential to build kickass Web3 products!
What to expect:
Explore builder grants across 32 different ecosystems—Ethereum L2s, EVM-based L1s, protocols, and even non-Web3 ones!
Understand what each grantor is looking for and how to maximise your chances of securing grants for what you are building
Get real-time advice, tips, and feedback on what grants best suit your project and how to apply
Dinner is provided during the session, and drinks are provided during the networking mixer
Who should attend?
As we expand the scope of our content this session, we extend a warm welcome to participants beyond the Solo Staking community!
e.g., Web3 builders, project teams, hackathon teams, staking & DeFi enthusiasts, or anyone looking to build cool stuff in Web3!
Feel free to join us 🙂
