Both Ledger and Trezor users can vote in Daedalus while Ledger clients can also vote in Yoroi lightweight wallet.

A total of 267 projects applied for funding in this round. The registration of voters is open until July 19, 2021.

The net amount of funding to be distributed among all of the winners of Project Catalyst Fund5 is $2,000,000 in ADA tokens.

Successful applicants receive grants in ADA tokens alongside consulting and marketing support. The previous stage of Project Catalyst supported 56 proposals approved by 216,000 voters.
