Hi @naina, thanks for checking.

The Volume-Based Integration RFP closed to applications on 30 September 2025 ([RFP: Volume-Based Integration](https://forum.cow.fi/t/rfp-volume-based-integration/2993)), and the committee isn’t publishing new problem areas or RFPs right now, so there isn’t a specific area we can point you to.

CIP-82 and the application template remain the public reference for anything submitted, but we wouldn’t recommend investing in a research sprint in the expectation of a grant.
