The Ethereum Foundation has just announced a new funding structure for the Ecosystem Support Program (ESP), shifting from an open application format to a two-way strategic model consisting of Wishlist and RFP. The Wishlist direction focuses on key areas such as cryptography, privacy, security, tools for developers, and community, encouraging innovative projects that align with the long term vision of Ethereum.
Meanwhile, the RFP direction seeks measurable solutions for specific challenges of the ecosystem. This new structure optimizes the allocation of funding, enhances collaboration between development teams, and strengthens the core infrastructure of the Ethereum network, ensuring that resources are used effectively for projects that deliver real value to the global community.
