dGTC Workstream Q4 Budget Proposal

This request is to send 127k GTC (138k minus remaining 10k GTC & 40k DAI from Q3) to the dGTC multisig to fund their Q4 2021 budget.

Workstream Mandate: Progressively Decentralize Gitcoins core services and products.

Q3 Achievements & Budget Deployment

In Q3 of 2021 the dGTC workstream utilized the budget granted to take the Decentralized Grants platform from a rough draft concept to working POC. We have kicked off a Grant Round for the Moonshot Collective team which contained 11 grants. Since the start of the round we have had 3 new grant submissions which have gone through the approval process and you can see on the platform at https://grants.gtcdao.net/

Out of the 41,300 GTC received for Q3, we have 10k GTC and 40k DAI remaining which we are moving forward to our Q4 budget.

Q4 Goals High Level

During Q4 the Decentralize Gitcoin workstream will (and has already started to) continue to collect feedback and improve the user interface and user experience, build additional features based on what is most important to run the round in GR12 and for claiming payouts, start working on implementing active sybil resistance and basic curation, and kick off the DID/Sybil Score Aggregation project and DevOps/Data initiative.
