The Ethereum Foundation's Ecosystem Support Program (ESP) has paused open grant applications to redesign its approach, focusing on strategic initiatives. The ESP team will continue supporting active grantees and provide non-financial support. Future updates on the program's refined priorities and approach are expected in Q4 2025. The Ethereum Foundation will continue funding new projects, with a focus on layer-1 scaling, reducing network costs, and improving user experience, with interoperability being a key priority.
