TL;DR:
We are excited to announce that the applications are now open for the fifth cohort of the Ethereum Protocol Fellowship (EPF5).
The EPF provides a pathway for aspiring protocol contributors to make meaningful contributions to Ethereum. In each cohort, a diverse group is assembled to work toward advancing Ethereum’s technology during the fellowship. This includes everything from the development of client implementations, testing and specifications, and participating in the latest core protocol research.
The program provides fellows with a unique opportunity to collaborate with other talented individuals, to engage with current Ethereum core developers and fellowship peers, and to make a significant impact on the Ethereum ecosystem.
The EPF is a permissionless program. Anyone is welcome to participate with the same access and support offered to the selected fellows. A portion of the stipend budget is allocated to rewarding active permissionless participants.
