Projects must be at least 3 months old. Newer projects should establish themselves and submit to the next round.
The project description does not specify the exact start date, but references progress and updates since the last Gitcoin grant rounds, indicating that it is 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.
Silvi's project, as described, is focused on reforestation, which is a widely recognized climate solution that contributes to GHG reduction. Their use of web3 technologies to support reforestation efforts further aligns with the core infrastructure aims for web3 climate solutions.
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.
Silvi has provided a detailed update on project progress since previous Gitcoin grants, mentioning the launch of their app in public beta and their work with reforestation in various regions.
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.
While Silvi has given an update on their project, the provided information lacks explicit details on lessons learned from previous work or a clear explanation on how additional funding will be utilized and a rough timeline for upcoming project goals.
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.
Silvi's approach to reforestation using web3 technologies for financial and coordination tools, methodology development, and a commitment to holistic ecosystem support appears to be viable and credible within the domains of web3 technology and climate solutions.
