The grant program invites talented teams to submit proposals and implement creative solutions that not only fulfill the program requirements but also contribute to improving the functionality of the DMD Diamond ecosystem in areas such as DeFi, GameFi, NFTs, and more. Selected teams will receive funding to develop ideas, contributing to the goal of creating a decentralized, secure, and interoperable blockchain.

The DMD Diamond grant program aims to accelerate the adoption and development of decentralized applications and tools that leverage blockchain's unique capabilities.

The first wave of grants will fund teams that propose innovative implementations that highlight these features. The grants will focus on practical and scalable solutions that improve user experience and ensure fairness and decentralization. Grants will support projects like DeFi protocols, NFT platforms, gaming applications, and interoperability tools that align with DMD's vision of a multi-layered, multi-chain ecosystem.

Commenting on the grant program launch, Helmut Siedl, blockchain visionary at DMD Diamond, noted:

"​​As a long-standing visionary, I now act more as a mentor. The blockchain can make decisions independently and shape its path into the future through the DAO (Decentralized Autonomous Organization). Indirectly, as part of the DAO, I continue to contribute my part (together with everyone else)."
