Ethprize conducted interviews with 84 Ethereum developers to surface frustrations around missing tooling, testing practices, and educational needs, publishing the resulting transcripts and bounty research in an open GitHub repository under the Status organization. The project was backed by the Ethereum Community Fund as one of its first five grantees, with funding designated for upcoming bounties and grants. At EthCC in March 2018, ETHPM and Truebit-adjacent POA Network's open-source Ethereum block explorer were announced as bounty recipients, with the explorer bounty representing a $250,000 funding commitment. By May 2018, the Ethereum Community Fund described two active ETHPrize bounties valued at $250,000 each, with one team selected per bounty and project management, advisers, and structure provided alongside the funding.
Ethprize was previously affiliated with L4 Ventures, which listed it among major Ethereum ecosystem contributions, and with Web3 Foundation, whose co-founder Ashley Tyson stated the foundation helped launch the project. Additional backers previously included Toshi by Coinbase and 0x. Ethprize has published 5 posts on the platform and has been mentioned by 24 accounts, totaling 48 mentions.
