What is the Developer Rewards Program?

iExec offers funding to inspire developers to discover the opportunities for innovation made possible with the iExec protocol. The program offers both quickly claimable rewards for application developers, as well as long-term grants available for more ambitious projects.

Who can apply?

The program is ongoing, and offers funding rewards and support to anyone building with iExec, be it individual developers or larger teams. From easily claimable rewards for developers to larger grants for more ambitious projects

What can iExec be used for?

iExec is an innovative market network where anyone can monetize their applications, servers, and data sets. The iExec network is made up of various types of computing resource providers.

• Application providers can monetize their applications and algorithms.
• Computing power providers on the network are called ‘iExec Workers’. As workers, users can connect their machines and be rewarded in RLC tokens for contributing resources to the network.
• Data providers who own valuable datasets can make them available for use by applications through iExec.
• Decentralized Oracles with iExec: The iExec consensus protocol ‘PoCo’ (Proof of Contribution) provides consensus over off-chain computing and can also be used to integrate decentralized oracles with iExec.
• Confidential Computing with iExec: iExec can be used to perform confidential computing or trusted off-chain computing with blockchain.

How do I apply?

Proposals must be submitted using this form. Describe in detail what the application does, what problems it aims to solve, and what unique features of iExec are used. If you are looking for a larger, long-term, project grant, you will be asked additional questions regarding the duration of the project as well as justifications of the costs.

What are the eligibility criteria for a proposal?

Your project submission:

1. Must use the iExec tech stack and RLC token
2. Must not use someone else’s code
3. Provide full documentation and resources
