PolkaWorld votes NAY

Until a clear compensation framework is established for the Treasury, PolkaWorld will reject any proposal with an hourly rate exceeding $100.

Additionally, this proposal lacks budget transparency and provides insufficient information about the team behind it.

✅ Why Vote YES
• High Developer Impact: ReactiveDOT simplifies dApp development on Substrate chains using modern React APIs. Ink! smart contract support is already live; Solidity support is coming.
• Modern Frontend Design: Features include incremental loading, cache-aware queries, suspense-first architecture, and auto-refreshable contract reads.
• Trusted Contributor: Tien is an established builder with deep contributions to the Polkadot ecosystem and >90% test coverage across the codebase.
• Low Overhead: Solo developer requesting 125 USDC/hour for full-time work over 4 months (712 hours total). Efficient, clear scope.
• Supports Upcoming Polkadot Hub: New Solidity compatibility (via PalletRevive) is being integrated—ensuring unified UX for both Ink! and Solidity contracts.

❌ Why Vote NO
• Solo Development Risk: Project continuity, responsiveness, and scalability may be at risk due to single-developer dependence.
• Limited User Adoption Metrics: While technically impressive, there is little data shared on actual dApp adoption or user metrics.
• PolkadotJS/SDK Already Exists: Some may argue ReactiveDOT overlaps with existing dev tooling like polkadot.js or useInk, raising questions of differentiation.
• Highly Technical Scope: Features like granular cache invalidation or React Suspense hooks may benefit advanced devs more than casual builders.

📌 Conclusion
ReactiveDOT aims to make Polkadot dApp development easier, faster, and more scalable—especially ahead of the Polkadot Hub era. If adopted, this funding will maintain momentum on one of the most advanced frontend SDKs in the ecosystem.

Dear Proposer,

Thank you for your proposal. Our first vote on this proposal is AYE.

The Medium Spender track requires 50% quorum (at least 5 aye votes) and simple majority of non-abstain votes according to our voting policy v0.2, and any referendum in which the majority of members vote abstain receives an abstain vote. This proposal has received six aye and two nay votes from ten available members. Below is a summary of our members' comments:

In the referendum, a majority expressed support for the initiative, highlighting its potential to advance developer resources and improve experiences in building decentralized applications. Some voters acknowledged the project's merits but raised concerns about its cost, questioning the justification for the significant funding request. While there was enthusiasm for the initiative's progress and the emergence of alternative solutions, a few voters remained skeptical about the clarity of its benefits and the necessity of the proposed budget, suggesting a need for further review.

The full discussion can be found in our internal voting.

Kind regards,

This proposal deserves unequivocal support.

@tien has consistently delivered high-quality tools that are both practical and increasingly more appreciated across the ecosystem. Beyond the technical contributions, Tien actively engages with the community and provides insightful feedback upstream: improving not just their own work, but the broader developer experience as well.

Having such a talented builder in the Polkadot ecosystem is a huge asset. Supporting this proposal is a clear win for everyone involved.

This proposal is a clear AYE for me. Tien is an asset to the Polkadot eco at many levels. I've been a user of the dot-connect library for years now, it's unmatched, it's always kept up to date and enhanced, and if you ever have a question or an issue, you get an answer in no time. Similarly, the reactive-do project and dot-console interface has been pushing boundaries and proven very useful.
