Mina Foundation announced the launch of a new funding program, Core, which aims to support projects dedicated to improving the Mina protocol and invites builders and innovators to contribute to the network's ongoing success by promoting innovation. The Core program focuses on highly prioritized development areas and aims to fund projects that break the limits of Mina's potential, explore new ideas and use cases. By participating in RFC discussions and submitting proposals, community members can not only contribute to shaping the Mina vision but also receive funding to achieve this goal. Examples include token standards, zkOracles, data availability layers, new o1js features, and more.
