In late 2024, the Ethereum Foundation, together with Secureum<\/a>, The Red Guild<\/a>, and Security Alliance<\/a> (SEAL), launched the ETH Rangers Program<\/a>, an initiative to provide stipends for individuals doing public goods security work in the Ethereum ecosystem.<\/p>\n The goal of the program was straightforward: to fund independent efforts that enhance the resilience of the Ethereum ecosystem, and to recognize people with demonstrated track records of meaningful contributions to important security work that benefits Ethereum as a whole.<\/p>\n Now that the six month ETH Rangers Program has wrapped up, we want to share the outcomes of the 17 stipend recipients\u2019 work. The breadth of their output is impressive, from vulnerability research and security tooling, to education, threat intelligence, and incident response.<\/p>\n Across recipient initiatives, consolidated outcomes include:<\/p>\n These ETH Rangers Program results demonstrate the reality that securing a decentralized network requires a decentralized defense.<\/p>\n From protocol-level vulnerability research to global developer education, these independent researchers built infrastructure that will multiply security effects across the entire ecosystem.<\/p>\n\n
