"We are excited to announce the third batch of Cronos Ecosystem Grant recipients and new infrastructure partners that have onboarded onto #Cronos!" Cronos tweeted to announce the latest grants.
A Look At The Winning Projects
According to a Medium post by Jay Lin Jiele - a member of the Strategy and Partnerships team at Cronos Labs, 80 projects applied for the third batch of grants, out of which 4 projects passed the selection process. To sift out the winning projects from the rest, the selection team mainly considered the quality of each project's innovation - particularly the projects building in parts of the Cronos ecosystem that do not yet have adequate functionality. The winners are:
- Defira: A metaverse that blends DeFi and GameFi, Defira won in the Gaming/DeFi category. Defira is community-driven and offers multi-chain gameplay.
- Argo Finance: Argo Finance - a Cronos liquid staking protocol - emerged in the DeFi category. The protocol enables users to stake their CRO coins without any lockup period. Users who stake CRO will receive a liquid stake CRO (bCRO), which can earn additional rewards on other Cronos DeFi applications.
- D.G.Pals: D.G.Pals grant came under the Web 3.0 Gaming / NFT category. The protocol is a multi-genre Play-to-Earn NFT gaming metaverse where gamers collect virtual pets, nurture them, and guide them through various immersive game modes.
- EatTheBlocks: EatTheBlocks earned its grant under the Community & Education category. The protocol is the foremost Web3 development online coding school on Cronos and offers courses for all levels of Web3 development, from beginner to advanced.
In addition to the grants, Cronos also announced a new set of partners for the Cronos Ecosystem. These partners provide critical blockchain infrastructure and services that developers building on Cronos Chain can leverage. The new ecosystem partners are Moralis, Protofire, Chainalysis, Blockdaemon, Covalent, Witnet, RockX, and Gelato Network.

FEG Token Brings June Updates as SmartDeFi 2.0 Approaches
FEG token brings multiple updates that include a website overhaul, logo change, and a new roadmap section.
Major Updates
The FEG Token team released updates for June, including a website overhaul, logo change, and a new roadmap section.
The protocol publicized the new changes through a Twitter thread on June 17. Here are the updates:
- The team revealed that they are working on a RoadMap for release to the community that will show expected time frames and goals.
- The FEG token official site will be undergoing maintenance as they update the official site to reflect updates to the project.
- The FEG team is currently conducting professional creativity exercises and taking community input for Name and Logo changes before voting. In addition, the Design Team is working on a number of Logo options that will be shared when further into the process.
- The team is working on a swap tool for the tracking tokens from staking rewards, and more information will be released on this once completed (built and testing currently).
- Token holders can use beta.FEGex.com to see the prices & charts of $FEG, which are being pulled from major exchanges such as Uniswap (ETH) & PancakeSwap (BSC).
Further, as an added precaution, the team advised that the token migration has NOT begun and advised the public NOT to fall for fake token Migration apps, TG groups, websites, etc.
BSC News reached out to the FEG token team to learn more about the recent updates, but we didn’t get a reply.
What is Feed Every Gorilla(FEG):
FEG explains the main idea behind its token is to provide a decentralized transaction network that operates on the Ethereum blockchain and the BNB Chain. A hyper-deflationary token, FEG has a maximum circulating supply of 100 quadrillions on both the aforementioned chains, including an inaccessible burn wallet. A 2% transaction tax is distributed among all holders based on the percentage of ownership, including the burn wallet, which acts as a holder that collects tokens over a period in which transactions occur. The team is keen to stress that there is no burn limit, and with this being the case, users will enjoy a ‘never-ending cycle of passive income with positive price pressure.’
