Empowering Builders with $5M
To establish itself as a cornerstone of Web4, X1 EcoChain has unveiled a $5 million Developer Grant Program. This program is set to support innovation across multiple verticals, including DePIN, DeFi, storage, computing, identity, and next-generation entertainment platforms.
- •Grant size range: $25,000 – $400,000
- •Delivery timeframe: 3–4 months
- •Baseline: robust, scalable, EVM-ready architecture
What distinguishes X1 EcoChain’s program from similar efforts by other blockchains is its commitment to household-level, energy-light decentralization powered by 3 Wh X1Nodes now active in more than 65 countries.
Funding priorities:
- •Decentralized infrastructure (DePIN)
- •Innovative mobile and financial tools
- •DeFi projects solving real problems
- •Distributed storage and compute solutions
- •Digital identity and trust frameworks
- •SDKs and developer resources for mass adoption
Galxe Starboard: Community at the Center
To strengthen its grassroots foundation, X1 EcoChain is introducing Galxe Starboard — a gamified leaderboard with $100,000 in rewards for impactful community members.
Season 1: September 25 – November 25, 2025
- •Rewards: $50,000 in X1 Coins
- •Beneficiaries: 200 top contributors
- •Rankings: driven by value creation, not randomness
Participants increase their score by:
- •Producing articles, explainers, and threads
- •Designing visual content (memes, videos, graphics)
- •Sharing validator journeys and technical insights
- •Promoting thoughtful engagement
For the first time, community storytelling is rewarded as infrastructure itself.
Why This Is Different
While most blockchains depend on high-energy data centers and costly rigs, X1 EcoChain shows that decentralization can run on compact, energy-efficient devices consuming less power than a light bulb. This approach redefines sustainability and inclusivity in blockchain.
The Web4 Vision
Together, the $5M developer fund and $100K rewards program unite both builders and supporters. This dual framework is key to X1 EcoChain’s mission: a green, global blockchain ecosystem driven by people, not servers.
