Ethereal Advantages
Solidity Support - Supports all smart contracts built on the Ethereum Blockchain.
Support of different Web3 Libraries - We support Web3 libraries of both Solana and Ethereum.
Ethereum Web3 (metamask) and Solana Web3 support - Developers can easily deploy existing open source products from Solana and Ethereum on Ethereal with minimal yet valuable change.
Low-cost Transactions - Extremely efficient performance at a fraction of the cost ~0.000001$.
Scalability - Transfer tokens directly between accounts with 50,000+ TPS throughput, with that figure not being a hard limit.
Developer Support Program - Receive grants to build on Ethereal alongside marketing and fundraising support.
Composable - Never deal with multiple shards or layer 2 systems.
Blockchain that eases life — built by developers, for developers.
Investments
Investment size could be up to $100,000 per project. The general investment program is designed to fund projects covering a wide range of topics, including, but not limited to:
Digital identity and privacy
Scalability solutions
DeFi-related and DEX-related products
NFT-related solutions
Games:
Educational - games that ease entrance for those not familiar with blockchain technology or background
Innovative games uniting blockchain and cryptocurrencies with AI, VR/AR and other high-tech domains. We will support teams and developers who are more experienced in high-tech domains with their development on blockchain.
Crypto gamification
Other games (strategies, collectibles, card games, etc)
dApps that unite the Ethereal blockchain with traditional sectors - Banking, Healthcare, Manufacturing, etc. We support teams from different domains who use blockchain to solve real business problems
Adoption of dApps - solutions that aid the adoption of cryptocurrencies and blockchain on a wide scale.
We also will actively encourage developers on creating solutions that increase decentralization and transparency of the Ethereal Ecosystem - possibly additional funding via ecosystem fund.
All projects will be tracked on GitHub. Teams can apply for grants more than once, but they need to successfully complete the previous project before receiving additional funds.
Projects that were chosen for the grant may also receive additional $10,000 funding from AWS per project.

Using others' work without attribution or indicating that it's not your work will lead to immediate termination. Please contact us before submitting if you have any doubts about licensing matters, and we'll be happy to help.
