Thanks @rohit for putting this forward. I’m reviewing all GG24 proposals against my steward scorecard.
Submission Compliance
- Meets length and covers all required sections
- Domain info present, but no confirmed experts yet
- Compliant
Scorecard Evaluation
Total Score: 13 / 16
| Criteria | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Problem Clarity | 2 | Frames the risk well: Ethereum scaling → fragmented data → coordination failure |
| Sensemaking Approach | 2 | Uses ecosystem research, cross-chain comparisons, taxonomy |
| Gitcoin Fit | 2 | Gitcoin is the right convener/funder for this space |
| Fundraising Plan | 1 | No hard co-funders identified yet |
| Capital Allocation Design | 2 | Retro + metrics-enabled model is thoughtful and pragmatic |
| Domain Expertise | 1 | Strong categories named, but no confirmed stewards |
| Clarity & Completeness | 2 | Structured and thorough |
| Gitcoin Support Required | 1 | Would require Gitcoin to scaffold governance and convene experts |
Gaps
- No confirmed domain stewards or experts
- No outside capital secured → Gitcoin would be carrying the full load at first
- Needs concrete roadmap/milestones; right now it’s more strategic vision than execution plan
Next Step
This is a strategically important proposal: open data is Ethereum’s credibility layer. It should move forward if a working group and outside funding commitments materialize.
