FAQs
- Who can apply?
- Any project that wants to build on Blast or is built on Blast already. The Big Bang is likely most valuable to projects in the early stages of their lifecycles, but we are open to working with later stage teams as well. Projects that are already live on Blast and participated in the previous Big Bang can apply as well, however teams at an earlier stage with novel products and use cases will be prioritized.
- What can I build?
- There are no restrictions on what you can build. Whether you are building a DeFi or Consumer Dapp, an NFT Collection or a Community Coin or something else entirely the Big Bang is the best place to start building mobile first projects on Blast.
- How does the funding work?
- $250k in funding through two investment tracks:
- Standard Deal: For companies that haven't raised before, we invest at a $15M post-money valuation.
- Later Stage: For companies who have raised or are currently raising, we'll typically follow the same terms as last round or current fundraising terms.
- Is this in person or remote?
- The bootcamp is fully remote, however, there might be optional in-person networking events.
- Is this only for Blast projects?
- Projects from any chain can apply but this program is for teams looking to fully focus on building Blast native projects.
