You are a researcher. To qualify for this round you need to have a track record of research. This can be as part of an academic affiliation or as an independent researcher. If you are applying for a grant for your first research project, email hello@metagov.org with more info on why you are the right person to conduct this research.
The information provided does not clearly state the track record of the research conducted by the project 'Inferer' or by its team members. While the project seems to be technical and data-driven, it does not specify whether the team's expertise extends to governance research specifically. An assessment of the team's academic affiliation, publication history, or previous research projects is needed to determine eligibility under this criterion.
Governance focus for the research. We will only accept grants that have a clear focus on governance. As noted in the description, you don’t necessarily need to focus exclusively on DAO or web3 governance, but your research needs to be applicable to decentralized governance broadly. A focus on Arbitrum or Uniswap is appreciated but not required.
Based on the project description, 'Inferer' appears to focus on user data protocols, identity analysis, and a ranking system that could influence airdrop strategies rather than research on governance. It does not clearly outline how the project's outcomes would provide implications or learnings for those working in digital and decentralized governance. Therefore, it does not meet the criterion for a clear focus on governance research.
No for-profit funding. If you have received VC funding or any other kind of funding that requires a return on investment, then it will not qualify. It is ok if you’ve received other grants.
The project 'Inferer' does not specify receiving any venture capital or for-profit funding that requires a return on investment. The update mentions support from a grant by PlatON and funding support from AWS, which are indicative of grants rather than for-profit investments. Based on the information provided, there is no indication that 'Inferer' would be disqualified under this criterion.
No retrospective funding. The research must either be launched soon or currently ongoing. Completed projects are not eligible for funding in this round.
The project 'Inferer' seems to be currently ongoing and actively updated based on the project description and updates. With mentions of products like Inferer Identity and Inferer Airdrop being in development or recently launched, it suggests that the project is actively being worked on and is not completed, aligning with the criterion of not providing retrospective funding for completed projects.
