TechFlow reports that on May 22, YZi Labs announced the opening of applications for Season 4 of the EASY Residency program. This 10-week program features a hybrid format: the first five weeks are conducted online, followed by five weeks in-person in Bhutan. Applications close on June 21 at 23:59 GMT−7.
This season’s in-person residency will take place in Gelephu Mindfulness City (GMC), Bhutan’s Special Administrative Region, with a focus on Web3, artificial intelligence, and biotechnology—specifically targeting stablecoin infrastructure, global payments, agent economies, next-generation decentralized finance (DeFi), AI infrastructure, and AI × Bio intersections. Selected teams may receive up to $500,000 in funding, comprising a $150,000 SAFE investment for 5% equity and an additional $350,000 uncapped SAFE. Accommodation, meals, and workspace during the Bhutan phase are fully covered by the program.
