The Chainlink Community Grant Program has been launched to provide financial resources to developers and researchers building within the Chainlink ecosystem, aiming to enhance developer tools, data quality, and key services supported by solid academic research. Fiews, a leading blockchain technology development shop, has been selected as a grant recipient to expand its role as an infrastructure provider for Chainlink nodes, offering backup Ethereum nodes and extending its support to other blockchains. This will ensure reliable node operations even if primary nodes encounter issues. The program aligns with Chainlink's goal of maintaining its position as a secure and reliable oracle infrastructure by supporting community resources like Fiews, which has been pivotal in providing accessible and load-balanced Ethereum node connections. The initiative reflects Chainlink's commitment to fostering the growth of universally connected smart contracts and secure oracle networks, with the grant available in cash or LINK.
