[Proposal] Ratify the Results of GG18 and Formally Request the Community Multisig Holders to Payout Matching Allocations

[raybankless]

Hello,

@umarkhaneth

This mechanism disempowers uniform, established monoliths and actually empowers grassroots organizations if they’re made of diverse, different members.

From what i read, as far as gitcoin concerned the top 2 projects that joined this climate round, are uniform, established monoliths. Since they have been slashed enormous percentages, that means the decision of their uniformness and monolithness is made.

and also, from the recent round operator lesson, i learned that

Seems like we are also doing suspicious activity.

Projects like us are not accepted to the round by just clicking the “submit” button. There was an election process. Our projects were reviewed by Gitcoin. But now, we are called suspicious monoliths by the same Gitcoin.

Either the language is wrong, or there is a much bigger problem here. Because what gitcoin gave me as an explanation to the %74 percent cut, was that we were either suspicious, or a uniform monolith.

Or our donators donated only to us and no one else.

Looking at your data, I agree that your matching seems low when comparing your number of voters to the number of voters of projects who receive similar matching. Digging deeper into your data, I see this is because of how identical your voters are. Of your 187 eligible voters, 151 (over 80%) of them supported only Nawonmesh.

What is wrong with they voted only for us? That means our community has moved, they used gitcoin and donated $1 to us, we should not get a cut for that imo. We can not go check who voted for how many projects and find the ones that voted only for us then warn them about “no you can not just vote for us, you have to vote random amounts of $$ to random number of projects or it is fraudulent”

We should do that before the round. This video is made by greenpill.network, i translated it to Turkish and shared from BanklessDAO Turkish YT. The video explains QF but there is no explanation of Cluster Matching, it just says “which ever project gets more number of people donating to them regardless of the amount of asset they donated, that project will get more from the matching pool”.

Kuadratik Funding Nedir?

That means we should update all our QF content ASAP until GG19, because it is missing the most important part of Gitcoin rounds. Since it caused us, %74 percent, there is nothing more important then knowing how CM works. There is no importance of what QF is for Nawonmesh, because %86 of their funds would have come from Cluster Matching.

We were the slashed side of the CM, how about the gainers?

@umarkhaneth

For example, if enough people from my hometown on Long Island decided we needed to improve our parks and we could quickly each give $1 to a gitcoin grant then we would outvote everyone else to claim a lions share of the matching pool by ourselves.

If you mean you can get %80 percent of the pool by shear numbers, you can’t, because there is a cap. I assume you already know about the cap thus by saying lions share you meant the cap.

Then how come Atlantis is eligible for the lions share of $23,876 with average number of backers?

Cluster Matching just got dismissed of QF in my experience.
