Following the successful execution of the first 2025 funding cycle, this proposal requests a 6-month top-up for the Paseo Bounty (#37) to ensure uninterrupted operations through Q4 2025 and Q1 2026.
We are requesting ≈ 113,217 DOT (≈ $344,946 at EMA7 = $3.046731) to sustain the ongoing work of the Paseo core group and service providers covering runtime upgrades, validator infrastructure, DevRel support, and continuous testing across parachain and system chain releases.
This top-up ensures operational continuity ahead of the migration to the multi-asset bounty pallet and stablecoin-based funding model planned for 2026. Any unused funds from this period will be returned to the treasury or converted into USDT/C-based once they become available.
