The Grant must be in support of, or directly advancing the ZK tools, libraries, community, or protocols.
The provided project description for '404 DAO' does not indicate that the project is focused on supporting or directly advancing zero-knowledge (ZK) tools, libraries, the community, or protocols. The mission to transform Atlanta into a Web3 hub and their verticals in education, an accelerator, a conference, and governance delegations do not clearly align with the advancement of ZK technology specifically.
The Grant should be focused on accomplishing the following for ZK: Usability - improving the user experience of zero-knowledge tools/libraries, not zero-knowledge rollups. This could also be technical education and documentation. Tooling - improving the developer experience or making it easier to develop applications utilizing zero-knowledge proofs or technology. Applications - technical implementations of zero-knowledge proofs and circuits, not simply applications built on top of zero-knowledge roll ups.
404 DAO's project description emphasizes Web3 community building and education rather than the specific development or improvement of ZK tools, libraries, or user/developer experiences in the domain of zero-knowledge technology. The educational aspect may tangentially support ZK tech knowledge-sharing but does not meet the criteria of being focused on ZK usability, tooling, or applications as described.
The project must have been active in the last 3 months - social media and GitHub.
The project shows recent activity on social media, with a Twitter handle provided that is presumed active. Additionally, the GitHub user '0xManny' associated with the project has 5 commits in the last 3 months, indicating some level of ongoing activity, satisfying the criterion for recency of activity.
The project should have demonstrated either concrete progress, or evidence of a substantive technical roadmap that clarifies how ZK technology will be used and advanced.
Based on the provided project description and the evaluation of the GitHub activity, there is no clear evidence or documentation provided that demonstrates concrete progress or a technical roadmap for how ZK technology will be used and advanced by 404 DAO.
The Grant deliverables should be open source.
There is no information provided in the project description or available resources that clearly indicates whether the grant deliverables, if any related to ZK technology, would be open source. Without knowledge of the specific grant deliverables, it's not possible to accurately determine their open-source status.
Satisfy the Program General Eligibility Policy in addition to the requirements outlined above.
Given that the previously evaluated criteria have not been satisfied, particularly the lack of direct support or advancement of ZK technology, it can be determined that the '404 DAO' does not satisfy the Program General Eligibility Policy, which requires meeting the additional specific requirements.
