Cartesi made a significant step towards expanding the Cartesi ecosystem contributors’ network by introducing its Community Grants Program (CGP). The program allows CTSI token holders to participate actively in the project’s governance, which includes distributing grant program funding.
The program’s launch made the CTSI token gain more value and utility as the token holders can participate in Cartesi’s ecosystem future.
