Empowering developers to build with USDC, Circle’s Developer Grants fuel apps that make blockchain finance accessible. See our 1st grant recipients of 2025.
Circle’s Developer Grants are more than funding — they’re a catalyst for bold ideas to shape the future of onchain finance. With USDC and Circle’s full stack of infrastructure at their fingertips, developers around the world are building real-world solutions that make blockchain mainstream and accessible.
After three cohorts of grantees that have delivered breakthrough innovation, we’re thrilled to unveil the latest winners. This round raised the bar even higher than before — both in the quality of applications and the ambition of what’s being built. From Singapore to Africa, LATAM to Europe, the applicants’ creativity and ambition pushed us to dig deeper, debate harder, and ultimately select the projects we believe will help move the entire industry forward.
Whether it’s reimagining how people access DeFi, building frictionless merchant tools, or tokenizing real-world assets, the builders are proof that the future of finance is being shaped right now. We’re honored to support these teams as they take their ideas from vision to velocity.
