Year-End Builder Rewards

We’re closing out 2025 with a bang to celebrate the rapid growth of the Lisk Ecosystem. 2025 brought hundreds of new builders into the Lisk ecosystem, and key metrics grew more than 5x. Now it’s time to showcase the progress the ecosystem has achieved.

The Year-End Builder Reward Campaign highlights and rewards the impact created by Lisk builders. All dApps are invited to register their Lisk progress. Every project that joins successfully earns rewards for completing their setup, with additional bonuses awarded for the most impactful teams. The top-performing teams will also get fast-tracked to the Lisk DAO Fund and EMpower Fund.

Overview of available rewards

• 1,000 LSK for the first 50 projects that complete their KarmaGAP profile and integrate Divvi.
• A share of 25,000 LSK is distributed to the most impactful teams.

Apply by Tuesday, December 16th

The application phase of the program is available to join now. We recommend a co-founder or manager with access to the latest team information to complete this step.

1. Head to karmahq.xyz, click “Create project,” and connect the wallet you want to use for your team. If your project already has a Karma account, please make sure it includes all requested information and is fully up to date.
   
2. Enter your project name, logo or image, and a short description of what you are building on Lisk. Make sure it is clear what your app does and who it serves.
   
3. Fill in your website, X/Discord links, GitHub and any other social or documentation links. This is the main place where reviewers and the community will look you up.
   
4. On your project page, make sure Lisk is selected as one of the ecosystems or communities you are part of. This helps connect your project to Lisk-specific programs and rounds.
5. If you already received funding from Lisk or other ecosystems - such as Lisk DAO Grants, add those grants and milestones to your project so your progress is visible and easy to verify. All Lisk Accelerator graduates should clarly link the respective programs they particiapte in and/or graduated from in their Karma profile.
6. After completing your project details, make sure to join the Year End Builder Reward Campaign on Karma. To do this, go to the Funding tab of your project, select Add Funding, then choose Add a Grant. Search for Lisk and select the Year End Builder Reward Campaign. Fill in the required information, including any milestones you want to include for this grant, and submit. Once completed, your project will appear in the Lisk Year End Community on Karma.
7. Double-check that your description, links, and grant info are correct, then save and publish your project profile. Once this is done, your project is live on Karma and can be used for Lisk DAO programs and reporting.
