Do you approve this $35,000 grant proposal from Messari?

Description: In an effort to scale the amount of quality, long-form research for the community, we are proposing Enzyme commissions an initiation of coverage report through Messari’s Protocol Services. This would provide a comprehensive overview of Enzyme and how it fits into the web3 asset management landscape and DeFi more generally. The report will touch on major KPIs and fundamental usage metrics while also discussing the token mechanics and how value flows through the system. Examples include:

Osmosis Yearn Injective

These reports would live as free resources on Messari and would be distributed through our newsletter (230k subscribers) and various social channels. We would then host a webinar with the writing analyst and a member of Avantgarde to discuss the report in detail and engage the community with Q+A.

Benefits: The benefit of the report would be increased knowledge and awareness of Enzyme for the larger crypto community. The exposure Enzyme would receive through this report would help attract more users, developers, and investors who are more likely to allocate time and money to provide value to the overall network after being more aware of the material developments going on. This could include more protocols looking to integrate Enzyme for their treasury management solutions, asset allocators interested in spinning up their own fund, or investors seeking to put capital in alternative vehicles.

Timeline: The report would be released the first week in September

Funding: $35,000 Annual Protocol Services membership (2 years): $15k Initiation of coverage report: $15k Analyst call: $5k
