Chainlink Grants

The Chainlink Grants Program funds development teams, researchers, and social impact initiatives that enhance and expand the Chainlink Network ecosystem. Launched to accelerate the development of secure oracle infrastructure and hybrid smart contracts, the program has distributed millions of dollars to hundreds of teams worldwide. Grants support various initiatives including core protocol development, integration of Chainlink services (Price Feeds, VRF, Automation, CCIP), academic research, community education, and social impact projects. The program prioritizes projects that advance the adoption of blockchain technology through reliable, tamper-proof oracle solutions. Grant amounts range from $5,000 for community initiatives to $500,000+ for significant technical integrations and infrastructure projects. The program operates on a rolling basis with applications reviewed continuously. Chainlink Labs also provides technical support, mentorship, and ecosystem connections to grant recipients.
