It’s very cool what you have done in Boulder! I hope to see more of such initiatives.
I couldn’t agree more. A day will come when thousands of regular people will participate in funding and managing local public goods without even realising they are using blockchain. I believe this day is closer than we think. Also, I believe this use-case is the perfect candidate for non-speculative first use of Ethereum for masses.
I wasn’t sure if this proposal is even eligible or would receive positive sentiment so I didn’t create any estimates yet. I’ll make an estimate in the coming days/week.
I had some estimates before, but these need reviewing and updating. I’ll post asap.
For the pilot itself, I am expecting up to $100k. But in the long run, we are entering potentially the biggest opportunity, as noted in this comment by @ccerv1 :
What is also important to note is the type of the opportunity. These are recurring + legitimate + deep wells of funding.
Not yet. But we will have in a few weeks. The work done so far was mostly research and BD. We are just starting the work on actual application.
We will definitely use Allo Starter Kit, but also other Gitcoin’s products as much as possible.
