# Developer Fund

## What is The Developer Fund? <a href="#id-2e37" id="id-2e37"></a>

The major focus of LGCY Network is the community. This means we care about both the investor and the project that builds on our network.

By nature a [DPoS blockchain](https://medium.com/@lgcynetwork20/what-exactly-is-dpos-ec253c654ea2) needs solid dApps. In order to encourage dApps to build on LGCY Network, we have set up a Developer Fund. We have set aside 3.33 Billion tokens from our initial token unlock, with a remaining 3.33 Billion to be added over the next few years of our roadmap. That adds up to 10% of our total supply set aside for dApp projects!

## How will projects be able to receive part of The Developer Fund? <a href="#id-68d1" id="id-68d1"></a>

In order to foster a good relationship between the LGCY team and the developers building on our network, we will choose 12 projects each year to gift some funds as a thank you. This developer fund will only last for the last 2 years that we are building out the network, because the fund is meant to be used as a jump start to our dApp network. Over 2 years we will choose 24 projects to gift 277 Million LGCY tokens each to help with costs and to show appreciation for our community. Every project that receives a gift from The Developer Fund will be highlighted as an integral part of our early community!

In order to qualify for this gift, a project must be actively developing on the LGCY Network. The application process will be made available on our website at [LGCY.Network](http://lgcy.network/). Interested projects can contact us through our website [lgcy.network](mailto:undefined) or reach out to the leadership via our community rooms.
