DAO_Terminal proposes an AI-generated, unbiased, easy-to-digest event summary service for Polkadot governance. Users can subscribe through Twitter, Telegram, or email. The service aims to enhance user involvement in Polkadot governance, reduce churn rate, and minimize audience dropouts. The project will be open source, and DOT holders will benefit from improved information accessibility, enhanced engagement, and simplified governance tracking. The proposal is already available for subscription and aims to make Polkadot governance more effective and inclusive.

DAO_Terminal: Enhancing User Involvement in Polkadot Governance

Polkadot proposes to create community-operated spaces called Polkadot hubs, similar to hackerspaces. They aim to share their knowledge on how to initiate and run such hubs, with all content dedicated to Polkadot. The budget is under $21 per hour, and they have already established a hub in Indonesia's Denpasar region. They have received interest from 10+ locations worldwide and aim to support the creation of new hubs until the end of the year. The requested DOT allocation is 7915 DOT.

OnFinality proposes to provide funded complete support for the entire Polkadot ecosystem by allocating US$620 of base funding each month for each parachain’s API service. This will cover the existing 38 Polkadot parachains. The proposal aims to provide immediate relief to cash-starved parachains through the winter and help new emergent chains get started. The total combined running cost for each month is estimated at USD $23,560.00. The initial proposal is for July's cost only. In the long term, the proposal aims to create a new “Parachain Infrastructure Bounty” to provide basic public services for all active parachains for both ecosystems.
