Projects must be at least 3 months old. Newer projects should establish themselves and submit to the next round.
The provided information does not include the date of inception for the project 'carbonlinked'. Without knowledge of the project's start date, it's unclear whether the project meets the requirement of being at least 3 months old.
The Grant must be primarily focused on climate solutions (the group may do other work but the grant proposal should be directly related to climate solutions). The proposal should explicitly outline how this project will help reduce GHGs or is an important core infrastructure for web3 climate solutions.
Carbonlinked is primarily focused on climate solutions by providing a means to tokenize emission units, thereby allowing the public to influence the emission market and potentially contribute to the reduction of GHGs. It aims to incentivize the reduction of emissions through market-driven scarcity.
Grantees who received funding in previous rounds should report on project progress since GR15 or the Alpha & Beta rounds. We understand that some projects may have less progress given the timing of Alpha & Beta round disbursements. This will ensure accountability to supporters and also help encourage contributors by showing what you’ve been accomplishing.
The provided information does not indicate whether 'carbonlinked' has received funding in previous rounds, nor does it include a progress report if they had. Therefore, it is not possible to determine if this requirement has been met.
All returning grantees are expected to update their proposal, in addition to project updates the proposal should include lessons learned from previous work and how they will use the additional funding from the upcoming round. The updated proposal should indicate how additional funding will help the project meet its goals, and include a rough timeline for the project overall.
There is no information provided regarding previous funding rounds or a proposal update that would reflect 'carbonlinked's ability to meet this criterion. Without details on past funding or an updated grant proposal, it cannot be determined if this requirement has been fulfilled.
There is a general expectation that projects are within the “realm of viability”. Even if a project may be at a very early stage, it still must seem credible to the average person with an understanding of web3 technology and climate solutions. Grantee founders must genuinely intend to build the project, and the project must not broadly be considered an impossibility.
Carbonlinked presents a project that appears to be credible and viable, offering a web3 solution to a real-world problem—greenhouse gas emissions, and their cap-and-trade mechanism seems technologically possible and practical. Moreover, their use of blockchain technology for tokens associated with emission units suggests genuine intent to build and capitalize on web3 technology for climate solutions.
