Grants and Funding

The Solana Foundation Grants Program is focused on funding efforts to further censorship resistance on the Solana Network

Delegation Program

Validators can participate in the Solana Foundation Delegation Program if they meet certain performance requirements. Foundation Delegation participants are eligible to receive a delegation from the Solana Foundation, helping decentralize the network.

Censorship resistance, now.

The Solana Foundation is working to make the Solana protocol the most censorship resistant network in the world.

1
On the permissionless Solana network, anyone can participate in helping to secure the network as a validator. The Solana Foundation encourages new and existing validators to maintain high quality operations via the incentive structure of our Delegation Program.
2
Validator operators and RPC node operators may choose to participate in our Server Program to locate their operations in data centers distributed around the globe.
3
Community members and token holders can choose to participate in Stake Pools to directly increase the censorship resistance of the network while potentially earning tokens at the same time.
