Projects must be at least 3 months old. Newer projects should establish themselves and submit to the next round.
The provided information does not specify when the project VinQ was established, which is necessary to determine the project's age.
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.
VinQ proposes a decentralized platform to promote regenerative agriculture, which has direct implications for climate by potentially reducing GHG emissions in the agricultural sector.
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.
There is no information provided about any previous funding rounds or progress reports from VinQ, thus it's unclear whether they have received prior funding and have fulfilled this criteria.
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.
Due to the lack of information regarding previous grant receipt and any subsequent proposal updates or progress reports, it cannot be determined if VinQ meets this requirement.
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.
VinQ presents a coherent and actionable plan to harness web3 for climate solutions via regenerative agriculture. It seems viable and in line with current technological and environmental strategic thinking.
