Polygon, a prominent Layer-2 network, has introduced the Community Grant Program with the goal of promoting innovation and development within its ecosystem. The initiative, as detailed in the official blog post, aims to distribute 1 billion POL tokens (known as MATIC) to developers over the next ten years. The program commenced with an initial allocation of 35 million tokens, valued at approximately $23 million based on current market rates, ready for allocation among developers. The funding for this program will originate from Polygon's Community Treasury, with an estimated annual distribution of around 100 million POL tokens. Participants in the program have the option to select from two distinct tracks: the 'Public Grant Path,' accessible to all developers interested in working on the Polygon platform, and the 'Consumer Crypto Path,' designed for projects that promote cryptocurrency adoption across various sectors such as gaming, decentralized social applications, artificial intelligence, blockchain integrations, and NFT innovations.
