GG24 Domains and Allocations

We are thrilled to announce the Domains that have been voted into GG24!

Voting results can be found here.

GG24 is organized into six domains, each with a defined funding target, Gitcoin matching commitment, and expected co-funding from partners. Together, these domains represent over $1.8M in total funds available in this cycle, with Gitcoin contributing $1.175M and external partners providing $632.5K (54% of the total).

Key Dates

September 2025

  • Sept 22–26 → Domain Allocator onboarding
  • Sept 28 → Hard cutoff for domain input
  • Oct 2 → GG24 official announcement + domain announcement

October 2025

  • Oct 14–28 → Gitcoin Grants 24 live funding window

November - December 2025

  • Post-round → Impact analysis, retrospective, iteration toward GG25

Important to note:

While Oct 14-28 is the live window for Quadratic Funding hosted by Giveth, it’s not the only timeline in play. Other mechanisms - Retro Funding, Conviction Voting, Deep Funding, and InfoFi-native experiments - will run on their own schedules, coordinated by domain leads.

As these dates are finalized, we’ll share them across our official channels so funders, builders, and community members know when to get involved.

Thank you to everyone who participated in shaping this groundbreaking round. We are excited to evolve and iterate on this new structure moving forward!

Thanks @MathildaDV for all the work and the community. What would be the process of retro funding ? I mean which platform are you hosting it.

I noticed that GG24 is structured around six domains with distinct mechanisms and allocations. I’m curious whether applicants are expected to submit separate proposals per domain, or if a single application that clearly demonstrates cross‑domain impact would be considered. Some projects (mine included) are designed to amplify multiple domains simultaneously — Privacy, Open Source, Public Goods R&D, and Targeted Adoption, for example. Would Gitcoin prefer these be split into siloed applications, or is there a pathway for one integrated proposal that maps contributions across all six domains?

This is a great question, to be honest! One pathway for one proposal to be split across all domains is not a process that we have in place. Each domain will have sub rounds, and you’ll be able to apply to those sub rounds within each domain separately! Hope that clears things up. It creates a tricky pathway if we’re thinking about one application being considered across domains because each mechanism and round will require different sets of information and impact metrics.
