The Ethereum Foundation has just launched a $1 million audit subsidy program to make security audits more affordable for blockchain developers building on Ethereum. The initiative is part of its ongoing “Trillion Dollar Security” effort to strengthen smart contract safety and developer support across the ecosystem.

Here’s a summary of the program:

Total funding: $1 million allocated for audit subsidiesSubsidy coverage: Up to 30% of audit costs for selected teamsPartners: The Foundation is collaborating with Areta Market, Chainlink Labs, and Nethermind to manage and vet applicationsAudit network: Over 20 professional audit firms (including BlockSec, Certora, Quantstamp, Hacken, Spearbit, Sherlock, and others) are participatingApplication process: Developers building on Ethereum mainnet can apply. An expert committee will evaluate projects monthly based on technical merit, feasibility, and alignment with Ethereum’s CROPS principles — Censorship resistance, Open source, Privacy, and SecurityGoal: Reduce the financial barrier to professional audits while improving overall ecosystem security

This marks another step in the Foundation’s broader mission to ensure safer smart contract deployments and empower more open-source innovation across Ethereum.
