Builder grants and funding for Gleo

Gleo is only as useful as the wallets, ramps and tools built around it, and these builder grants and funding programs exist to pay for that work on Robinhood Chain. Apart from the bug bounty, none is open yet; each one opens with an announcement on X.

Main program

Builder grants paid in milestones

The main program funds open-source work in stages: a first payment once the plan is agreed, the rest as each milestone ships and can be checked by anyone. Reviews and outcomes will be published.

Wallet integrations, anchor tooling, payment libraries and asset dashboards come first, because they make every other project easier to build.

Bug bounty for security researchers

Found a way to hurt Gleo users? Tell us privately first and we will pay for it. Reports on this website are accepted today, and Gleo Contracts join the scope on the day their addresses are published.

Funding programs at a glance

Amounts are set per round and published with it. Nothing on this page promises a figure before that round opens.

Research grants
Planned
For university groups and independent researchers studying payments, tokenized assets, privacy or market design, with findings published openly.
Marketing grants
Planned
Support for launches, guides and local groups that bring new people to tools built on Gleo, paid against agreed deliverables.

Companies

Larger backing for payment companies

Firms taking payments or issuance into production need more than a grant. The Gleo enterprise fund is set up for them.

FAQs

Questions about Gleo grants

Can I apply for a Gleo grant now?

Not yet. Each round is announced on X with its budget, rules and form. Security reports are the exception and are welcome today.

Are grants paid in $GLEO?

Each round states the asset it pays in. Builders usually prefer USDG, and that is the default we plan around.

Does my project have to be open source?

For builder and research grants, yes. Matching and enterprise support can cover closed products.
