We're finally ready to unveil Epoch 8.

🥁🥁🥁 This epoch is an Ethereum-core alignment epoch. It's a special one because it's a major step in our broader roadmap to contribute to Ethereum's growth.

Like Epoch 7, there's no snapshot. Our internal reviewers will select projects based on impact and relevance.

Allocation window remains the same. ETH rewards are time-weighted and allocating to projects get you matched

🗓Application Deadline: 3 June, 2025 @ 11:59 pm PST

🛠 Who should apply?
Builders advancing Ethereum in 4 core areas:

1) Direct protocol improvements (consensus, execution, data availability, core networking)

2) Shared infrastructure (clients, testnets & tooling, p2p networking stacks, security & formal-verification frameworks, transparency)

3) Open dashboards, datasets, or studies (roll-ups, bridges, MEVs -  resulting insights must strengthen Ethereum)

4) Protocol-level research + specification work (advancing Ethereum's roadmap)
