alexcovo_eth · x · 2026-10-22
The Basis Fellowship offers $50,000 per person: no equity, no reporting, no deadline — the money is yours to spend on anything. It's open to operators, engineers, scientists, and anyone who builds, with the first cohort starting in 2026.
Applications are always open and take about 10 minutes: share your portfolio and answer the questions honestly. Extras: nominating someone who gets selected earns you $1,000, and strong non-selected applicants may receive $3,000.
