OUR MISSION
We are missioned to be flexible, nimble and adaptive to the needs of the decentralisation communities.
WHO WE ARE
As a crypto-native, cross-network, community-founded & non-profit organisation, we've been initiating, supporting and promoting projects to expand and reach the potential of blockchain & Ethereum ecosystems. We are an interdisciplinary team of researchers, designers and developers distributed around all corners of the world.
As one of the first cross-network community initiatives, ECF was first conceptualized at Devcon 3 in 2017 in Cancun, Mexico and officially started in 2018 in Tokyo, Japan under the advisorship of Ethereum Foundation
The early community of Ethereum builders (MakerDAO, Status, web 3 Web3 Foundation, Cosmos, OMG Network, Golem) founded ECF as a grants program to support the development of critical infrastructure and public goods in the ecosystem
