Project must build upon the hypercerts protocol or be a pilot use case for new functionalities. Projects that merely use hypercerts without extending its functionality or enabling its use by others are not eligible.
VoiceDeck records journalistic impacts as Hypercerts and is a marketplace for Journalism Impact Certificates, which builds upon the hypercerts protocol by applying it in a novel context and makes it possible for others (journalists and newsrooms) to capture the value of their impact, indicating an extension of the protocol's use.
Project must be 3 months old and the project must demonstrate some tangible progress; just proposing an idea to utilize the hypercerts protocol will not meet the eligibility criteria.
The project began work on this idea in August 2021 and has a working pilot on the Sepolia testnet with 3 citizen journalism outlets. The project's Github shows recent activity including closed pull requests and closed issues, indicating tangible progress beyond a proposal.
Projects must comply with Gitcoin core rules and eligibility.
While the project seems aligned with the mission of hypercerts and outcome funding, there is insufficient information provided to fully determine whether the project complies with all Gitcoin core rules and eligibility requirements. Further investigation into the project's adherence to these rules would be necessary.
