# Drift: Allocate 50,000 DRIFT to fund the Drift AI Agent request for grant # Drift: Allocate 50,000 DRIFT to fund the Drift AI Agent request for grant
## Summary ## Summary
Proposal to create a Drift AI Agents Grants program allocating 50,000 DRIFT to fund AI agent development in DeFi. The program targets trading agents, yield agents, information agents, and social agents building on Drift's infrastructure. A decision committee evaluates applications and awards grants of 10,000-20,000 DRIFT upon milestone completion. Applications open until March 1, 2025. This proposal established the Drift AI Agents Request for Grants (RFG) program, allocating 50,000 DRIFT to fund AI agent development in the DeFi space. The program created a Decision Committee to evaluate applications and award grants ranging from 10,000-20,000 DRIFT based on milestone completion. Applications opened upon approval and closed March 1st, 2025, with grants awarded on a rolling basis.

- **Proposer:** proPaC9tVZEsmgDtNhx15e7nSpoojtPD3H9h4GqSqB2 - **Proposer:** Drift Protocol
- **Platform:** Futardio - **Completed:** 2024-12-22
- **Proposal Number:** 5 - **Grant Pool:** 50,000 DRIFT
- **Autocrat Version:** 0.3 - **Grant Range:** 10,000-20,000 DRIFT per project
- **Application Window:** December 2024 - March 1, 2025
## Program Structure ## Program Structure
**Grant Allocation:** The RFG targeted four categories of AI agents:
- Total pool: 50,000 DRIFT 1. **Trading Agents:** Integrating with Drift Perps for position management
- Individual grants: 10,000-20,000 DRIFT 2. **Yield Agents:** Managing capital across Drift yield opportunities
- Deployment: Within 2 weeks of approval, subject to KYC 3. **Information Agents:** Surfacing on-chain data about Drift
4. **Social Agents:** Building community engagement and awareness
**Target Categories:** Qualifying agents must operate with autonomy, utilize multiple strategies, exist off-chain while interacting on-chain, and communicate with agent managers. The Decision Committee holds final authority on all grant decisions, with deployment within 2 weeks of approval (subject to KYC for regulatory compliance).
- Trading Agents: Integrating with Drift Perps for position strategies
- Yield Agents: Managing capital through Drift yield opportunities
- Information Agents: Surfacing on-chain information about Drift
- Social Agents: Building community engagement and awareness
**Governance Model:**
- Applications reviewed by decision council
- Council decisions are final
- Rolling approval process through March 1, 2025
- Unused grants returned to foundation
## Significance ## Significance
This proposal demonstrates hybrid governance architecture where futarchy approves program frameworks but operational decisions (individual grant awards) are delegated to committees. The decision council has final authority over grant allocation, while the program structure itself was validated through conditional markets. This reveals a governance layer separation: futarchy for meta-decisions, committees for execution. This represents futarchy governance applied to grants infrastructure rather than just fundraising or treasury decisions. The Decision Committee structure creates a governance layer between platform and grantees, showing how futarchy platforms can manage quality control for ecosystem development programs. The milestone-based deployment mechanism demonstrates conditional capital release governed by committee evaluation rather than pure market mechanisms.
The program also signals Drift's strategic positioning in the emerging AI x DeFi sector, using grants to attract developer attention and build ecosystem integrations before the space matures.

Primary extraction: decision_market entity with structured program details. Two enrichments: extends existing claims about futarchy platform governance and MetaDAO's use case expansion.
