# Grants Program

## Program Status

The Obol Grants Program is currently paused.

Over its initial phase, the program supported a wide range of initiatives across the ecosystem and played a key role in accelerating growth, onboarding contributors, and strengthening the Collective.

We’re incredibly proud of what was achieved and grateful to everyone who participated.

## What’s Next

Following this first phase, we’ve decided to take a step back and regroup.

The goal is to:

* Reflect on what worked well
* Identify areas for improvement
* Redesign the program to better align with the next phase of the Obol Collective

We believe this pause will allow us to come back with a stronger, more focused, and more impactful grants program.

## Stay Updated

Updates on the future of the Grants Program will be shared as they become available.
