The Graph Foundation Launches to Boost Decentralized Governance

Published at 2025-11-16 09:00:07

The Graph Foundation was announced on 15 November 2025 to help expand and manage The Graph Network, formalize on‑chain governance, and allocate resources to projects building on the protocol. The foundation will focus on supporting indexers, curators and developer tools while overseeing grants and policy work intended to make network decision‑making more decentralized and sustainable.

For GRT holders and ecosystem participants the foundation signals a step toward clearer governance processes and programmatic funding of public goods. Expect to see upcoming governance proposals, grant rounds, and clearer standards for operator participation; these moves could affect token voting dynamics and infrastructure incentives as The Graph pushes to scale across Web3 applications.
