In Shipyard, the Ocean core team curates project proposals that are set up to deliver according to clear delivery milestone timelines and bring particular strategic value for the future development of Ocean.
Eligible Shipyard projects must make use of Ocean technology and/or OCEAN token, be open source, have experienced teams, working code, a clear use case and/or deployment potential. Typically, successful Shipyard grants are funded up to $30,000 and cover a period of 3-6 months. Ideally, grant deliverables provide an initial validation MVP or beta that serves as a basis for further discussion.
