Avalanche Foundation Establishes Research Review Committee, Launches Crypto Economics Research Grant Program of Up to $50,000
the Avalanche Foundation has announced the formation of an independent review committee to evaluate research proposals submitted under its "Call For Research Program" and provide up to $50,000 in funding for original academic research on the economics of decentralized networks. The committee comprises members from Ava Labs, the Avalanche Foundation, and external scholars specializing in economics, finance, and decentralized network design, aiming to select projects with long-term research value based on strict academic standards.The program covers two main research areas: crypto asset pricing and valuation, as well as validator economics and network security mechanism design. Evaluation criteria include research relevance, methodological rigor, innovation, feasibility, and the background of the research team.Emin Gün Sirer stated that Avalanche has been built on a foundation of academic research from the very beginning, and this program aims to continue that tradition while advancing the understanding and application of core economic issues related to decentralized networks. Committee members also include renowned scholars such as Campbell Harvey, Fahad Saleh, and Agostino Capponi, along with key members such as the Investment Director and Chief Economist of the Avalanche Foundation.
Avalanche Foundation Launches Research Grant Program Focusing on Tokenomics and Validator Mechanisms
the Avalanche Foundation has announced the launch of its Research Grant Program (Call For Research Proposals), open to academic researchers worldwide with individual grants of up to $50,000. The program focuses on research related to Avalanche network economics, with emphasis on two core areas: first, crypto asset pricing and valuation, concentrating on how native assets of PoS public chains accrue value, including token issuance mechanisms, monetary policy, network adoption rates, and their relationship with long-term value; second, validator economics and network security, with key topics including optimal staking ratios, validator reward models, validator set health, and non-inflationary reward mechanisms.

Avalanche Foundation: Supporting DeFi United to Restore rsETH Collateral Support
the Avalanche Foundation posted on platform X, stating its support for DeFi United. This is a coordinated action aimed at restoring rsETH collateral support following the incident on April 18. DeFi is undergoing public stress tests with transparent ledgers and real accountability, whereas traditional financial systems often require months or years to complete such repairs. The Avalanche Foundation expressed its support for Aave and the broader DeFi ecosystem.
