Obol Collective (@Obol_Collective): The Obol Grants Program is now live 📣

The Obol Grants Program is now live 📣 Following the success of our pilot wave, we’re rolling out the full program to support meaningful contributions across the Obol Collective. Come up with an idea to advance Obol 🧠 >> Choose a grant track 🛣️ >> get funded with $OBOL 🪙 If you’re building on Distributed Validators, running community events, or contributing to Obol in any way, this program is for you. The program offers three distinct grant tracks to help individuals contribute based on their interests: 1. Staking Masters: for proposals aligned with the Collective’s 2025 SQUAD goals. This may include new DeFi integrations for $stOBOL, technical research, DV adoption within (re)staking protocols, or infrastructure to deepen $OBOL utility. 2. Community Events: a permissionless support model for in-person events focused on Obol Distributed Validators. Funding covers food budgets and validator conversion bonuses. 3. Open Strategic Missions: scoped technical missions, defined by the team and open for anyone to pick up. These are milestone-based grants for contributors with the technical skillset to deliver on specific tasks. The Obol Grants Program launch unlocks new paths for contributors to support the Obol Collective and we’re excited to support your work. Head to our blog for full details on how to get involved. Let’s keep building together. 💪
