To be eligible for this grant round, applicants must meet the Gitcoin general eligibility policy
The provided information does not specify if the MesoReefDAO complies with Gitcoin's general eligibility policies.
Project must be LatAm based or working to create solutions in LatAm
MesoReefDAO focuses on the Mesoamerican Reef spanning Mexico, Belize, Guatemala, and Honduras, indicating that the project is LatAm based and is working to create solutions in LatAm.
Minimum Age: Projects must have been active for at least 3 months.
The project timeline indicates activity for the year 2023, and updates provided demonstrate ongoing activity suggesting that the project has been active for at least 3 months.
Qualifying Project Types:
The project type mentioned appears to be focused on coral reef conservation, which does not directly qualify under specified DeFi-related project types.
DeFi focus: Projects should be directly related to the DeFi field (DeFi protocols, wallets, educational initiatives, etc). Defi should be an element of the project.
MesoReefDAO's focus is on coral reef conservation using decentralized science (DeSci), which does not inherently entail a direct link to DeFi protocols, wallets, or educational initiatives specific to DeFi.
Innovation and technology: Projects that leverage new technologies and solutions in the DeFi space. Projects that have the potential to establish Latam as an innovation hub for Defi
While MesoReefDAO incorporates decentralized technologies and attempts to innovate, it's uncertain how much of this is centered within the DeFi space specifically or could contribute to establishing Latam as an innovation hub for DeFi.
Scalability with regional relevance: Projects that propose a solution that can be transferred to other parts of the world.
The framework and technologies used for coral reef conservation have the potential to be applied to other ecosystems and regions globally, thus indicating scalability with regional relevance.
Integration (1inch as a scaffold): Encourage projects that have successfully integrated 1inch APIs as part of their infrastructure or operations.
There is no evidence provided that MesoReefDAO has integrated 1inch APIs into their infrastructure or operations.
Measurable outcomes: Projects must define clear metrics for tracking and reporting their impact
MesoReefDAO has outlined specific goals and strategies for their conservation efforts, suggesting that there are measurable outcomes for tracking and reporting their impact.
Social Impact: We emphasize DeFi projects that have a significant social impact on Latin American communities with a focus on: Financial inclusion: Projects that aim to use Web3 tools to include the people who is excluded from the TradFi world; DeFi tools: Projects that are building web3 infrastructure/Dapps to make better decentralized services; Web3 onboarding: Projects that make people jump from the TradFi or CeFi world to DeFi
While the project aims to have social impact on conservation and local community involvement, it does not clearly demonstrate a focus on financial inclusion, building DeFi tools, or onboarding people from traditional/centralized finance to DeFi specifically.
