Projects must be at least 3 months old. We use Twitter, web domain registration date, and other public info to determine this. Newer projects should establish themselves and submit to the next round.
The provided information does not include details on the exact age of the Wasset project, such as the registration date of the web domain or the start date of the project’s Twitter account.
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. - Examples include: Renewable Energy, Oracles & DMRV, Supply Chain Analysis, Carbon Accounting, climate activists / collectives, Natural Systems CO2 Sequestration
Wasset is focused on sustainable waste management using blockchain technology, which aligns with climate solutions by promoting recycling and waste recovery, potentially reducing GHGs through improved waste management processes and resource efficiency.
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. - We encourage grantees to mint Hypercerts for the work and the impact they have accomplished. Priority review will be given to grantees who have minted a Hypercert.
There is no information provided on whether Wasset has received previous funding from Gitcoin nor whether they have submitted an update on progress or minted Hypercerts for their work.
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.
The information provided does not clarify whether Wasset is a returning grantee and if they have updated their proposal with progress, lessons learned, and detailed plans for additional funding.
There is a general expectation that projects are within the **“realm of viability”**. - Even if a project is very 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 Wasset project presents a clear problem statement, a set of features and components that address waste management, and a list of team members with roles that suggest a commitment to the project. This suggests it falls within the realm of viability.
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 presented in the information provided to suggest that Wasset has been involved in encouraging or enabling Sybil attacks or any malicious activities.
