The top league of winners include the most valuable developer-focused projects (namely, two products for Haskell devs), on-chain governance modules, DEXs and marketplaces.
Red-hot segments of decentralized financial protocols and non-fungible tokens are also represented in the Top-20.
All eyes on Africa
Cardano’s focus on expansion to Africa is underlined by the results of this stage as 5 out of 56 winners are tasked with bringing Cardano-based solutions to Africa.
Namely, West Africa Catalyst Onboarding and West Africa Proposer Outreach proposals are listed at Project Catalyst’s top.
The maximum sum of ADA-denominated funding for the participants of this round was $50,000 while the number of projects received between $5,000 and $35,000.
As covered by U.Today previously, Project Catalyst is a unique global funding initiative designed to nurture the most valuable Cardano-based decentralized applications, infrastructure elements and tokenomic primitives.
