Projects must be at least 3 months old. Newer projects should establish themselves and submit to the next round.
Based on the project description and Github activity, the project exhibits ongoing activity for more than 3 months.
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.
The project explicitly outlines a focus on aligning economic incentives with climate solutions, potentially helping to reduce GHGs by penalizing harm and rewarding positive climate actions.
Grantees who received funding in previous rounds should report on project progress since GR15 or the Alpha & Beta rounds. We understand that some projects may have less progress given the timing of Alpha & Beta round disbursements. This will ensure accountability to supporters and also help encourage contributors by showing what you’ve been accomplishing.
There is no information provided about previous rounds' funding or reporting on progress specifically since GR15 or the Alpha & Beta rounds.
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 project description contains some updates and a mention of accomplishments, but it does not clearly state lessons learned from previous work or detail how additional funding will be used and its impact on meeting project goals.
There is a general expectation that projects are within the “realm of viability”. Even if a project may be at a very early stage, it still must seem credible to the average person with an understanding of web3 technology and climate solutions. Grantee founders must genuinely intend to build the project, and the project must not broadly be considered an impossibility.
The project appears to be viable, with a clear intention of building an evaluation engine to account for externalities, which is a concept both plausible and considered essential by some in the web3 and climate solution communities.
