Arbitrum Foundation
aka Arbitrum, Arbitrum Foundation grants - Questbook, arbitrum questbook
The Arbitrum Foundation stewards the Arbitrum DAO and L2 ecosystem on Ethereum, operating a milestone-based grant program (typical awards $20k-$150k in ARB) alongside specialized initiatives like Trailblazer, Audit Subsidy, Arbifuel, and DRIP to drive adoption, infrastructure, and community growth. Community-elected domain allocators also distribute milestone-based grants via Questbook across domains such as developer tooling, education, gaming, and new protocols. Programs are active and expanding, including a $16M funding proposal in May 2026.
Runs a Watchdog Program investigating misuse of historic incentive programs; as of May 2026 all outstanding cases were resolved, future investigations are limited to post-2025 incidents, and oversight is transitioning from Entropy to OpCo.1,2,3,4
