FAQ
FAQ
All applications will be reviewed on a rolling basis. Decisions will be emailed, and successful applications will be announced monthly on TON Society channels.
Projects accepted by other channels will automatically receive a grant. You do not need to apply again.
We understand that teams will come in all shapes and sizes and from different parts of the world. We encourage applicants to benchmark against their peer group, exercise professional judgment, and be reasonable in the request.
We award grants in Toncoin (TON), the native utility token for The Open Network. Toncoin is listed on major exchanges across the world for easy swap to other currencies as needed to fund the project.
While not mandatory, we encourage the applicants to submit as much detail as possible. If you already have a pre-existing presentation, we encourage you to cross-check it against the questions per the project proposal template to ensure that all bases are covered.
As your project idea/development advances, we encourage you to reapply and highlight the substantial changes made since the time of the previous application.
