# Drift: Allocate 50,000 DRIFT to fund the Drift AI Agent request for grant
## Summary
Drift DAO approved the creation of an AI Agents Grants program with 50,000 DRIFT in funding to encourage teams to build AI agents that integrate with Drift's DeFi infrastructure. The program targets trading agents, yield agents, information agents, and social agents, with individual grants ranging from 10,000-20,000 DRIFT awarded upon milestone completion. Applications opened immediately upon approval and run until March 1st, 2025, with a Decision Committee evaluating proposals on a rolling basis.

## Significance
This proposal represents Drift's strategic investment in the emerging AI x DeFi sector, using futarchy-governed treasury allocation to fund ecosystem development. The program structure—milestone-based grants evaluated by a Decision Committee—creates a hybrid governance model where futarchy approves the budget and framework while a smaller committee handles operational grant decisions. The 50,000 DRIFT allocation signals Drift's belief in AI agents as a growth vector for DeFi protocol adoption.
