These design initiatives can have a giant impact on bitcoin, and thus, on the world. It is a big ambitious slate of work, one for which we need incredible designers to lean in to help us explore, to create and to lead the charge with us. Bitcoin is money for everyone. But it is also yours—what will you design it to be?

Funding

For any designers wanting to commit to full-time design work on these impact initiatives, or similarly ambitious initiatives not yet on our radar, grants are available from Spiral—a division of Block Inc. that promotes and funds open-source bitcoin development and adoption (and helped convene the Bitcoin Design Community 5+ years ago).
