Up to $1M in ALEPH credits for Web3 projects building on decentralized infrastructure.

Twentysix hands out up to $1M in ALEPH credits (good for 1 year) to Web3 startups deploying on aleph.im. You get decentralized compute, IPFS storage, and cross-chain support across Ethereum, Solana, Avalanche, Base, BNB, and others. The program wants projects with at least an MVP or POC—no VC requirement, no KYC. You'll get assigned mentorship and community visibility. The catch: credits are locked to the aleph.im ecosystem, so if you're already committed to another decentralized cloud provider, this won't help. Application is manual review, not instant. Best for early Web3 teams who are genuinely building on decentralized infrastructure and can commit to the aleph.im stack.
