Based on the project description, Kokonut Network has been active since at least November 2023, which is more than 3 months ago from the current date. This is evident from the listed updates since 'November 2023 to April 2024', implying the project is older than 3 months.
A Project/Organization may only submit one project to the round.
The provided information does not explicitly state whether the Kokonut Network has submitted multiple projects for the round. Confirmation is needed regarding any other submissions by the same organization.
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.

Kokonut Network's project involving the development and management of syntropic plantations aligns with Nature-Based Solutions as a climate solution. The project aims to address the lack of funding for agricultural projects and to create perpetual natural assets, which directly correlates to climate solutions.
Grantees who received funding in a previous round(s) must provide a new update on their progress and impact. You can also include the challenges you've faced. This will ensure accountability to supporters and also help encourage contributors by showing what you’ve been accomplishing.- You can use our newly published Climate Solutions Metrics Garden for inspiration and guidance on ways to measure your project’s impact.- We encourage grantees to mint Hypercerts impact claims with a description of your projects impact goals.- We also encourage grantee to register their project on Karma GAP and add milestones for your near term goals.- Priority review will be given to grantees who utilize these tools.
The proposal includes a substantial update on their progress since the last funding round, listing out specific achievements and use of the Karma GAP profile. However, there is no mention of the use of Hypercerts which could have been used to further reinforce their commitment to project impact measurement.
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 must indicate how additional funding will help the project meet its upcoming goals, and include a project roadmap of the next year for the project overall.
The project has provided an extensive update on their progress and includes plans for the subsequent quarter, suggesting an updated proposal. The inclusion of a roadmap or detailed next steps would further solidify this score.
All projects are required to be within the “realm of viability”, meaning they should be realistically achievable within the given conditions and resources and by the people submitting the project. Projects are expected to be practical and capable of succeeding based on current circumstances, knowledge and technology. Even if a project is early, it must still seem credible to the average person with an understanding of web3 technology and climate solutions. Including information about the team's expertise, qualifications and skills will help us review your grant. Grantee founders must genuinely intend to build the project, and the project must not broadly be considered an impossibility.
The project appears to be within the realm of viability, focusing on a blockchain-based cooperative for syntropic plantations. There's mention of a DAO, a non-profit entity, and a cooperative framework which indicates a practical approach to governance and operations, aligning with the knowledge and technology of web3 solutions.
Grantees can be eliminated from consideration in the round if they are found to be encouraging or enabling Sybil attacks or other forms of malicious manipulation of the grants platform or the Gitcoin community.
There is no evidence provided in the information available that suggests the project is involved in Sybil attacks or manipulation. However, without access to Gitcoin's internal monitoring tools or additional information, a definitive conclusion cannot be reached.
Grantees should include information about their team of active contributors, including the roles and qualifications of each member.
While the project description includes a personal introduction of the founder and their objectives, there is no detailed information about the team of active contributors, their roles, and qualifications, which is required to fulfil this eligibility criterion.
