Swamproots Builder Initiative
We want to share a high level overview of the 25 grantees accepted into Swamproots as we continue to spotlight each of them individually.
The Swamproots Builder Initiative is dedicated to funding onchain projects that help create a sustainable future for ApeChain and our @apecoin community. These 25 grantees represent a diverse range of project categories - from dApps and protocols to infra, gaming, memes & NFTs, AI, and RWA.
Using @thriveprotocol, we ensured every application was reviewed objectively and with integrity. We understand the passion and commitment that every applicant has to our thriving ecosystem and are grateful to those that continue to put themselves out there for the betterment of ApeCoin and ApeChain.
Grant funding distribution will occur as grantees complete key objectives and milestones after being accepted. This ensures that grants are distributed only after proof of work has been submitted and verified, and that maximum value is returned to the DAO. Progress is a key component in our program and we are committed to distributing APE only when meaningful value is created.
Due to the nature of milestone funding unlocks, we may be accepting more applications (from those already submitted) as we continue through the process as long as our budget allows for it.
We will continue to share more updates as we work through the program.
For now, let’s celebrate the approved grantees as they build for ApeChain

Thrive Protocol has acquired The Quadratic Accelerator @theqacc, fusing milestone-based ecosystem funding with the most advanced on-chain launch infrastructure in crypto.
The result is a first-of-its-kind, end-to-end value chain for builders, from first funds to TGE.

We just acquired @deworkxyz ✨
Thrive believes the core of crypto is GDP value creation. As the OG in the bounties space, Dework was one of the few companies truly spearheading that vision - building real infrastructure that helped projects execute and deliver.
We are excited to bring DeWork into our ecosystem and take their work to the next level. The Thrive family continues to grow as we bring crypto's fragmented funding space under one roof.
Welcome to the Thrive fam, Dework. ❤️
