In summary:
Greetings, Ethereum community!
We are excited to announce that the application period for the fourth cohort of the Ethereum Protocol Fellowship (EPF) is officially open!
The EPF is an initiative to support the development of Ethereum’s core protocol by providing a path for future protocol contributors to gain the experience needed to make meaningful contributions. This program is specifically designed for developers and researchers who have an unwavering passion for Ethereum, its community, and the possibilities of decentralized technology.
In each cohort, we aim to bring together a diverse group of fellows who will work to advance Ethereum technology over the course of the four-month fellowship. This includes everything from developing client implementations, testing, and specifications, to participating in the latest research on core protocols.
The program offers fellows a unique opportunity to collaborate with other talented individuals, engage with current Ethereum core developers and fellow peers, and make a meaningful impact on the Ethereum ecosystem. Whether you are a seasoned blockchain developer, a promising computer science student, or a researcher interested in cryptography and economics, we encourage you to apply!
