WHY THIS ROUTE
Stablecoin settlement for the world's small stores is a real payments story, and Stellar and Celo both fund payments that reach people outside banks. Plasma has no builder program today, so use it as a settlement rail, not a funding source.
ARRIVED LOOKS LIKE
A clear thesis, two months of real store numbers and applications in to the programs that fund this kind of work.

2. Gather two months of numbers
40 minStores live, regulars confirming, lines disputed and resolved, settlements by chain and the share of tabs settled on time.
3. Apply to the Stellar Community Fund
90 minGo to https://communityfund.stellar.org/ and signal interest. The fund offers Build Awards up to $150,000 in XLM and small Instawards through local Stellar chapters. A Build round was listed with a Nov 8, 2026 submission deadline, so check the portal for the current round. They want a validated project that will launch on Stellar, and a referral from an alumnus, ambassador or partner helps. Show your Soroban settlement contract and real store numbers.
4. Apply to Celo's Prezenti AI Builder Sponsorships
45 minGo to https://sponsorships.prezenti.xyz before Dec 29, 2026. It covers up to $1,400 in AI coding tools over four months for solo builders, with only five places, so it may already be full. You need public proof of shipping original technical work and a four month plan that includes a Celo mainnet deployment. Your Celo settlement contract is that deployment.
5. Record a 60 second walkthrough
30 minA real store, a line confirmed on a customer's phone and a payday settlement with both receipts. Attach it to every application.
