Developer Grant Support for Fries Coin (FRYS) and the FRYS NFT Marketplace
Hey ICP Fam ,
We’re excited to introduce you to Fries Coin (FRYS) — a community-first memecoin on the Internet Computer that’s evolving into something much bigger: a decentralized, ICP-native NFT marketplace with real-world utility.
Born from a group of friends who love fries and blockchain, FRYS started as a fun meme project and quickly turned into a fast-growing community movement. We now have active users across OpenChat, DSCVR, Telegram, and X — and we’re building in public, for the people.
What We’re Building
We are currently developing the FRYS NFT Marketplace, an intuitive, high-performance platform on ICP that:
- Supports NFT minting, listing, and trading on-chain
- Enables real-world utility of tokens (including plans to let users buy real fries from partnered restaurants using FRYS Coin
)
- Will feature staking, rewards, and cross-dapp integrations
- Pushes the narrative fun meets function in Web3
– Will have an AI Agent Intergration in the marketplace
This isn’t just a meme token anymore. It’s a bridge between on-chain creativity and off-chain usability, completely powered by ICP tech.
Our Team
We’re a team of 10 passionate builders — backend, frontend, cybersecurity, marketing, and community experts — with over 25 years of combined experience in blockchain, Web3, Rust, Motoko, React, and technical writing. We’re based in Kenya and building full-time and part-time, with deep commitment to growing the Internet Computer in Africa and globally.
Why We’re Applying for a Developer Grant
We’re seeking a DFINITY Developer Grant to:
- Accelerate development of the FRYS NFT Marketplace MVP
- Expand integrations across ICP-based tools and services
- Launch staking, rewards, and payment utility
- Educate and onboard more African developers and users to ICP
Why This Project Matters to the ICP Ecosystem
- Grows daily active users through community-driven adoption
- Showcases real-world utility with fries-for-FRYS payments
- Inspires fun, creative projects that drive culture on-chain
- Expands adoption in Africa and the World, a critical emerging market for Web3
We’re not just building tech — we’re bringing more human energy and mainstream appeal to the Internet Computer.
How You Can Help
If you believe in the power of community, culture, and creativity on-chain — we’d love your support. Please comment, share, and endorse this post as we pursue a DFINITY Developer Grant to bring FRYS to the next level.
Let’s show the world that ICP isn’t just about tech — it’s also about community-driven movements that start small and grow big
Thanks, fam!
