Victoria, Seychelles, September 29th, 2026, Chainwire
Beldex, a blockchain network built for privacy, today launched the Beldex Grants Program. It sets aside $1 million to help developers build privacy apps and tools on the Beldex network.
The program does not run on fixed rounds. It takes proposals at any time. Funding depends on how ready a project is, not on dates.
The program will be formally introduced at Korea Blockchain Week 2026 in Seoul by the end of September. It is open to developers, startups and teams worldwide.
To qualify, projects must be built on Beldex or make real use of it. Privacy must be a core part of how the project is built, what it does, or how people use it.
Opening the Network to Outside Builders
Until now, Beldex has mostly built its own ecosystem. This includes BChat, BelNet, Beldex Browser, BNS and the Beldex wallet.
The Grants Program is the next step for Beldex. It opens its tools to outside developers. It also backs new privacy-first apps, links, and tools across the network. Our report on Beldex’s 2026 plans for privacy infrastructure gives more background.
Cris Blanco, Chief Strategy Officer at Beldex, said: “Beldex has spent years building privacy infrastructure and products. The next phase is about opening that foundation to developers and growing an ecosystem beyond what Beldex builds itself.
We don’t expect the most important privacy applications of the future to all come from inside one organisation. The Grants Program is about giving builders the infrastructure, support and capital to take those ideas from concept to production.”
What the program funds
Grants are not fixed in size. Each one is sized to how big and how hard the project is. Many kinds of privacy projects can apply, such as:
- Privacy-Preserving Applications: private payments, ID, messages, networking, and similar uses for people or businesses.
- Infrastructure, Research & Tooling: work on the core protocol, SDKs, middleware, and research that makes Beldex privacy stronger.
- Integration & Interoperability: wallet and developer links, plus layers that connect other networks to Beldex.
The program is not limited to these areas. Developers with other privacy ideas are also welcome to apply.
Funding Tied to Delivery, Not Promises
Each project is reviewed on its own, not in a contest. Each one is judged on its size, needs and likely value to Beldex.
For projects that move ahead, the goals, steps and funding plan are set to fit each one.
Money is paid in stages. Each checked result unlocks the next round. This keeps teams on track from the first build to launch.
Typical funding stages may include:
- Prototype: a working early version that shows the core privacy features
- Testing: linking and testing in a live setting, including the Beldex testnet where it fits
- Mainnet/Production: full launch for the public or for business use, where it fits
Afanddy Bin Hushni, Chairman of Beldex, said: “We are not interested in handing out lump sums and hoping for the best. Funding is tied to clear, verifiable milestones, so ambition is matched by real delivery. The goal is simple: help strong teams turn promising ideas into technology people actually use”
Support beyond funding
Beyond money, approved teams may receive:
- Developer docs and SDK tools
- Tech advice for building on Beldex
- Help linking to the right Beldex tools
- Access to shared resources and ongoing help
Developers can also use Beldex’s growing set of tools, such as Privacy Tokens, the Beldex Extension Wallet and the Beldex Web3.js SDK.
The aim is to make privacy apps easier to build. Teams will not need to build the core privacy layer from scratch.
How to apply
Applications will open on the official Beldex Grants Portal when the program is launched at Korea Blockchain Week. Proposals are read as they come in. Approved projects can get money while funds last.
Full eligibility details, funding structure and technical documentation are available at source.
About Beldex
Beldex is building the tools for a privacy-first internet. It pairs blockchain with advanced code-based security. This gives users more control over their data, payments, messages and what they do online.
Its main products are:
- BChat: private messaging
- BelNet: decentralized private networking
- Beldex Browser: privacy-focused web browsing
- BNS: a decentralized naming system for the Beldex ecosystem
The network is kept safe by masternodes that use Proof-of-Stake. BDX, Beldex’s own privacy coin, is used for payments and staking. For a look at the coin’s outlook, see our Beldex (BDX) price prediction.
Beyond its current products, Beldex keeps putting money into new privacy tech. This includes Privacy Tokens, account-based addresses, a privacy-first EVM, research on code that can resist quantum computers, and privacy tools for new AI apps.
