dRPC Startup Sponsorship Program (Wave 2)
The dRPC Sponsorship Program (Wave 2) is back for its second edition. This initiative continues to support Web3 builders by offering free access to dRPC’s commercial nodes, reducing infrastructure costs, and helping startups scale faster. Our goal is simple: Empower developers with the resources they need to focus on building and growing their projects.
For a recap on Wave 1 participants, check out the kickoff blog post here.
Reaching More Builders
We expanded our efforts to connect with Web3 developers who truly benefit from our program. At major events like EthDenver and EthDam, we engaged with the community, distributed promotional codes, and shared insights on how dRPC can support their work. This hands-on approach allowed us to meet talented builders and understand their challenges firsthand.
Applications and Selection
Interest in the second edition was overwhelming. We received applications from developers worldwide, showcasing a wide range of innovative blockchain projects. After careful review, we selected 30 startups to receive sponsorships. Each participant demonstrated strong potential and a commitment to pushing the Web3 space forward.
