The Interchain Foundation is committed to supporting the development of the Cosmos ecosystem. We recognize the impact that the recent Cosmos EVM incident had on the teams who trust and rely on Cosmos technologies for their deployments.
In light of this, the ICF is establishing a discretionary grant program to support affected chains that collaborated with remediation efforts. As part of the same program and alongside the community – the Foundation will dedicate resources to further strengthening security practices, infrastructure, and incident response capabilities across the ecosystem.
We will continue investing in the resilience and security of Cosmos. Further details regarding the new grant program will be shared in the coming days.

Between August 20th and August 25th, attackers exploited a vulnerability in Cosmos EVM to extract funds from multiple Cosmos-based blockchains. We are committed to strengthening the systems and processes we rely on for security and are grateful for the collaboration of the affected teams and security researchers.
