Today we will talk about **Aleo Grants**, we will learn what the idea of ​​this project is, why it is needed and how we can contribute?

It should start with the fact that most blockchains are interested in developers and their help, so they actively reward developers for their contribution to the development of the project.

But, as a rule, we are talking about some minor calculations made by enthusiasts, as well as minor rewards for such actions. But! Aleo is changing the approach to developer contributions and rewards for such contributions.

Aleo aims to help developers solve the most complex mathematical problems **evidence with zero disclosure (ZKPs),** and for this they are ready to reward developers through their system [grants](https://bead-rocket-066.notion.site/Bounties-for-Proofs-of-Useful-Work-0c0169cb4ec843f1820496519a1df07e).

It is about **large-scale projects**, which developers can solve with zero-disclosure proofs. As the Aleo team itself writes in its article, it is not about programs for finding the cheapest bread in the supermarket, it is about such global projects as:

*   the study of diseases, as well as genetic mutations
    
*   astronomy and physics in the study of stellar bodies
    
*   studying climate change, etc.
    

**Aleo** focuses on solving complex and real problems that really concern the population of our planet. Yes, creating a website is certainly useful, but not as useful and relevant as solving the problems of climate change or genetic mutations, the spread of diseases, etc.

That is, we are talking about large-scale scientific research. The team thinks as big as possible and encourages all interested parties to join this way of thinking.

The more difficult the task, the more calculations will be needed to solve it. And with such large-scale computational tasks, zero disclosure proofs (ZKPs) and **the Leo computing language**, on which the Aleo blockchain is built.

The amount of computing power offered by the project is simply unique!

The project proposes to use a system of grants based on any projects. Zero-disclosure proofs allow parties to verify the solution found in a decentralized manner and are guaranteed to receive a reward for solving a particular problem without disclosing any confidential information about the parties.

Aleo pays a reward only if a solution to a particular computational problem is found using the Leo computation language. One problem solved = one reward.

*   and please note that all grant program participants whose applications will be approved will need to undergo a mandatory KYC (know your customer).
    

If you want to participate and be a part of something big and grand and also get rewarded for it, then this program is definitely for you. The project is eager to see your useful solutions to urgent and urgent problems! You may be the one who can stop global warming or the next epidemic, discover a new planet or help children with rare genetic diseases with zero-disclosure evidence-based computing..
