# Canton Development Fund

The Canton Development Fund supports open development that strengthens the Canton ecosystem.

This repository is used to submit **Development Fund proposals** through GitHub Pull Requests.

High Level Documents: 
- [Proposal Review Process](/Development%20Fund%20Proposal%20Review%20Process.md)
- [Sig Directory](sig-directory.md) 
- [Proposal Lifecycle Board](https://github.com/orgs/canton-foundation/projects/3/views/1)

---

## Overview

The Development Fund accelerates high-quality contributions that increase the utility, security, and long-term resilience of the Canton Network.

The fund supports work such as:

- Core protocol research and development  
- Developer tools and SDKs  
- Security reviews, audits, and hardening  
- Reference implementations  
- Critical ecosystem infrastructure  
- DeFi liquidity seeding where required for early utility

If your proposal delivers a **shared benefit to the Canton ecosystem**, it may be eligible.

---

## How the Fund Works

The program was established through governance:

- **[CIP-0082](https://github.com/canton-foundation/cips/blob/main/cip-0082/cip-0082.md)** allocates **5% of future Canton Coin emissions** to the Development Fund  
- **[CIP-0100](https://github.com/canton-foundation/cips/blob/main/cip-0100/cip-0100.md)** defines the governance and review process

Unlike many networks, Canton does **not** use a premine or treasury. Funding comes from future network rewards to create a durable, predictable source.

The Canton Foundation acts as a neutral facilitator.

Funding decisions are made by the **Tech & Ops Committee**, with final approval by the **Voting Group**.

**Program structure**

- Quarterly funding allocation  
- Milestone-based payments  
- Funding denominated in Canton Coin (CC)  
- Transparent, community-visible process

---

## Who Can Submit

You may submit a proposal if you are:

- A Canton Foundation member  
- A contributor organization  
- An external team or individual

External contributors must have a **Champion** to support the proposal.

All proposals are evaluated based on **impact, quality, feasibility, and alignment**, not on who submits them.

The committee will review no more than 3 proposals a week from one organization / champion.

---
