Here’s something exciting for builders and crypto enthusiasts alike. X1 EcoChain, the eco-friendly Layer-1 blockchain that runs on just 3 Wh per node, is rolling out $5 million in grants for projects shaping the future of Web4, along with $100K in Galxe Starboard to reward community contributors who make a difference.
Grants That Empower Builders
If you’re a developer ready to turn ideas into real applications, X1 EcoChain is offering $25K to $400K per project, with a 90–120 day timeline to deliver EVM-compatible, scalable solutions.
What makes this different? These are plug-and-play X1Nodes deployed in 65+ countries, meaning you can participate in a global blockchain network from your own home.
Focus areas:
DePIN — real-world decentralized infrastructure
Next-generation mobile and payment services
DeFi protocols with practical use cases
Storage and computing dApps
Identity, reputation, and trust systems
Developer SDKs and tools for faster adoption
The idea is simple: help builders create applications that matter and watch the ecosystem grow.
Galxe Starboard: Rewarding Community Impact
Starboard is a living leaderboard that celebrates people who contribute meaningfully.
Season 1: $50K in X1 Coins (Sept 25 – Nov 25, 2025)

Every action boosts your Aura score, moving you closer to higher rewards
Write a guide, make an infographic, share your validator experience every contribution counts. This is about real impact, not luck.
Why X1 EcoChain Stands Out
While many blockchains burn energy in data centers, X1 EcoChain proves you can run the network anywhere, efficiently. The Starboard program shows that community engagement is just as crucial as infrastructure storytelling, education, and participation all have value here.
A Green, Global Web4
By launching both a $5M grant program and a $100K community initiative, X1 EcoChain is supporting the two sides of Web4: builders and the people who make the ecosystem thrive. It’s a sustainable, people-powered blockchain designed to grow globally without harming the planet.
About X1 EcoChain
X1 EcoChain is the world’s first fully decentralized, energy-efficient Layer-1 blockchain. It runs on 3 Wh X1Nodes spread across 65+ countries, proving that a blockchain network doesn’t need massive data centers to be global and resilient.
Built on a Proof-of-Authority consensus, the network blends physical decentralization, scalability, and sustainability, making it a solid foundation for the next era of the web: Web4.
The ecosystem supports EVM-compatible smart contracts, cross-chain interoperability, token creation, and fast dApp deployment via a full suite of developer-friendly SDKs. With over 6,000 X1Nodes online and a steadily growing global community, X1 EcoChain shows that blockchain can be light, open, and truly decentralized.
