After evaluating over 400 submissions, 35 candidates received a stipend. Furthermore, 5 retroactive stipends were granted to permissionless participants. Throughout the 4-month duration, fellows were able to collaborate with 27 core developer mentors from diverse client and research teams within the ecosystem. Their efforts were consistently documented in nearly 600 weekly updates.<!-- --><\/p>\n<p><!-- --><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"chakra-heading css-1w54o5f\" id=\"epf4-projects\">EPF4 Initiatives<!-- --><\/h2>\n<p><!-- --><\/p>\n<p class=\"chakra-text css-gi02ar\">In total, fellows proposed and contributed to 35 initiatives, some of which remain active.

You can follow all cohort activities there, review project resources, development updates, and fellows&#8217; notes.

A significant aspect of the EPF is the chance to connect with numerous inspirational individuals involved in core development. At Devconnect in Istanbul, more than half of the cohort convened to participate in EPF Day, an entire day of programming featuring <!-- --><a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" class=\"chakra-link css-ug8vf0\" href=\"https:\/\/streameth.org\/archive?event=epf_day\">project presentations<!-- --><\/a>, panel discussions, and networking opportunities.<!-- --><\/p>\n<p><!-- --><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"chakra-heading css-1w54o5f\" id=\"ethereum-protocol-fellowship-study-group\">Ethereum Protocol Fellowship Study Group<!-- --><\/h2>\n<p><!-- --><\/p>\n<p class=\"chakra-text css-gi02ar\">We gathered important feedback at the conclusion of cohort 4.
