I had the pleasure of learning from Christian and Mario on two occasions.
They’re incredibly valuable to the ecosystem - filling a crucial gap by equipping builders with the practical skills needed to succeed. Fully support their continued funding!

hello,

Can you share documentation that verifies the methodology you use to select promising teams and the evaluation process you use for startups to qualify? Thanks

I believe it's important to support businesses and growth-focused initiatives within the ecosystem and this is definitely one of them. Personally, I really admire the commitment both Mario and Christian have shown to the space. Mario, in particular, brings a sharp business mindset, coming from a non-Web3 background, he's now self-taught and his business instincts are truly unmatched. This blend of dedication and skill makes their initiative especially promising.

PolkaWorld votes Abstain

The retroactive funding is reasonable, and the team delivered a lot of solid work over the past three months, which deserves support.

However, there are shortcomings: the proposal lists a lot of work, but there’s limited information on outcomes. For example, out of the 30 startups involved, which ones achieved clear, tangible results in these three months?

Additionally, PolkaWorld initially supported this proposal when it was first submitted. But as time went on, PW updated its voting rules — rejecting any proposal with an hourly rate above $100.

Based on this, we’ve chosen to abstain from this vote.
