BlockPI Web3 Startup Program

Up to $1K in credits

Some apply links may be affiliate. See our policy.

Up to $1K in API credits for Web3 builders, plus technical support and VC introductions.

BlockPI hands out up to $1,000 in API credits to blockchain projects, no equity or KYC required. You get dedicated Telegram support, priority access to new features, and introductions to VCs and ecosystem partners. The credits cover their full stack: archive nodes, custom endpoints, MEV protection, and transaction bundling. Eligibility is fairly open—funded teams, hackathon winners, grant recipients, public goods builders, and exchange launchpad projects all qualify. Credits last 12 months from approval, and they review applications in 5 business days. The catch: this is a one-time allocation, and there's no clear path to renewal or scaling beyond the initial $1K if you're growing fast. Best for early-stage Web3 teams that need reliable RPC infrastructure without burning runway on node costs.
