Featured Project 🙌

SOS Venezuela: Emergency Earthquake Relief

After two powerful earthquakes hit Venezuela, families urgently need food, clean water, medical supplies, and emergency shelter.

This fundraiser was started by our Giveth teammate Cotabe, together with trusted local partners in Venezuela, to help get support to organizations responding on the ground as quickly as possible.

So far, the team has raised over $1,000 and already sent the first $500 to local organizations providing aid, with more distributions on the way.

If you’re able to help, please consider supporting the relief effort on Giveth.

Encrypt the Mempool Coalition

This month, we're highlighting the Encrypt the Mempool Coalition, an initiative bringing together projects, researchers, and community members working to improve privacy and fairness on Ethereum.

Today, every transaction sits in the public mempool before it's confirmed, making it visible to bots that can front-run users, perform sandwich attacks, or censor transactions in real time. The coalition is advocating for an Ethereum Improvement Proposal (EIP) that would encrypt the mempool as part of Ethereum's upcoming I* hardfork, helping protect users while preserving Ethereum's decentralization and credible neutrality.

Giveth is proud to be part of the coalition and support efforts to make Ethereum more secure, private, and resilient for everyone. 💜

🛡 TheDAO's Ethereum Security QF Round has officially wrapped up. Results are live, matching funds have been distributed, and 134 projects have received their share of 638 ETH+ in funding. A huge thank you to Wintermute for contributing $200K to the matching pool just before results were announced, Quantstamp for adding $50K, CertiK for providing $50K to ETHSecurity badgeholders to donate, and the many other contributors who helped more funding reach Ethereum security.

📊 Want to see the round from every angle? We created a public dashboard where you can explore the Ethereum Security QF Round data, test different QF settings, and see how matching outcomes shift.

🎙 Missed our Ethereum Security QF Round wrap-up Space? We were joined by Igor (Wintermute), Rabib (Quantstamp), Sean (Sigma Prime), and Matthias (ChainSecurity) to discuss the round, Ethereum security funding, underrated projects, and what the ecosystem should focus on next. Catch the recording and hear directly from some of the contributors who helped make the round possible.

📝 Engaged with TheDAO’s Ethereum Security QF Round in any way? We’d love to hear your feedback. We’re preparing a full public retrospective report in the coming weeks and will use community input to help shape it, so please take a few minutes to fill out the feedback form.

💧 Superfluid Season 6 is live on Giveth! From June 2 to August 31, donors can earn SUP by setting up recurring donations of $20+/month to any GIVbacks-eligible project. Choose a project once, keep your support flowing in real time, and earn rewards while backing public goods.

Featured Project 🙌

Bitfinding

Bitfinding is building live-response infrastructure for Ethereum security: tools designed to act in the narrow window after an exploit begins, but before funds are gone. Their automated whitehat agent monitors Ethereum and L2s in real time, detects exploit patterns, validates rescue paths, and executes protective transactions when vulnerable assets can still be saved.

Since 2024, Bitfinding has rescued more than $1.5M in user and protocol funds, including $1M during the Balancer rescue in under 12 seconds. Their work highlights a critical gap in security today: Ethereum needs audits, monitoring, and research, but it also needs teams ready to intervene when an attack is already happening.

Wintermute

This month, we're giving a special shoutout to Wintermute, one of the leading liquidity providers in crypto and a long-time supporter of Ethereum security.

Just before the Ethereum Security QF Round results were announced, Wintermute stepped up with a $200,000 contribution to the matching pool, helping grow it from 500 ETH to 638 ETH+ and increasing the funding available to security projects across the ecosystem.

Their support reflects a continued commitment to strengthening Ethereum. In fact, exactly one year ago, Wintermute donated $1 million to SEAL, helping advance security and incident response efforts across the space.

Thank you, Wintermute, for helping make Ethereum more secure.

Ethereum Security Matching Pool

This month we’re spotlighting Ethereum Security QF Matching Pool created to help grow the funding available for projects protecting Ethereum and its users.

TheDAO Security Fund brought 500 ETH to fund Ethereum security, and this project gives the wider community a way to add even more. Every donation is converted to ETH and added directly to the round’s matching pool - over $92,000 has been raised already!

Donating to this project lets you support top Ethereum security projects using the wisdom of the crowd, since all funds will be distributed according to quadratic funding.

Open Source Public Goods Cause

This month, we’re not featuring just one project - but 41 open source projects under the Open Source Public Goods Cause.

By donating to this Cause, you support the builders who keep essential open-source infrastructure alive, multiplying your impact across thousands of projects and millions of people.

Pool Together

This month, we’re excited to feature PoolTogether as our GIVfriend of the month! 

PoolTogether is a no-loss prize savings protocol that turns saving into a fun and rewarding experience. Users can deposit their favorite yield-bearing tokens, which generate yield that is pooled together. The accrued yield is then randomly awarded as prizes to lucky participants, while everyone keeps their original deposits safe and accessible at any time. 

We’re also excited to launch Giveth Vaults on PoolTogether! These vaults will let users deposit assets like ETH or USDC (details coming soon), with part of the yield funding prizes and another portion supporting the Giveth Matching Pool. Check out the ongoing proposal with the PoolTogether team here.
