Ink!ubator 2.0 – Change of curators for bounty #19

Gm Polkadot is requesting a joint tip of 9910 DOT for DonDiegoSanchez and Lucy Coulden for their work on The Polkadot Network over the past 5 months. They were involved as Head Ambassadors and worked on collecting, coordinating, and editing the Ambassador Fellowship manifesto, which led to the soon-to-be-passed ref 1267 & 1287. They are asking for a double tip of 4955 DOTs each, which they believe is a fair compromise between their expectations and the work they delivered. Their work can be checked through their reports and the Project Phoenix timeline, Polkadot Ambassador fellowship manifesto, Phragmen Initiatives Fund, and Proposals 1267 and 1287.

TIP for DDS and Lucy

Judashegemony is requesting a retroactive tip of 500 DOT for their contributions to the Polkadot ecosystem from September 2024 to the present and the next three months. They believe this amount would be equivalent to 2-3 months of their regional salary and would allow them to increase their involvement in Polkadot media. Their past contributions include reaching 450K views and introducing Polkadot to large influencers in Russian-speaking regions. Their future plans involve appearing on a famous Russian crypto YouTube channel, creating TikTok podcasts, and making more hype posts. They emphasize the importance of their positive and polite content in influencing the Polkadot community's mood and attracting more people to the project. They also mention their involvement in various Russian-speaking communities on social networks, where they help educate people about Polkadot.

Retroactive Tip For Solo Content Creation

Dear Polkadot Community,

We are responsible for the proposal about Parallel Finance's governance takeover. We think we will fail, but we want to return control to the right people, not the Parallel Finance team. They did bad things and tried to hide their actions. We have evidence of their wrong actions.

Here are some important addresses related to Parallel Finance:
1. PF1: Main account controlled by Yubo
2. PF2: Old sudo account, also controlled by Yubo
3. TC3: Technical council account controlled by Yubo
4. 0xrjman: Key engineer and council member involved in bad activities
5. PF3: Another account
6. PF4: Manages all tokens and can create or remove them
7. PF5 and PF6: Accounts that moved a lot of money to other places

Parallel Finance did many bad things, like secretly moving tokens, creating and removing tokens, and changing rules to hurt users. We have examples of these actions, but there are too many to list.

We think Parallel Finance took more than 2 million DOT and other currencies, which is worth a lot of money. We hope that other groups will help keep the system working and safe.

We will wait for the Polkadot community to decide what to do.

Referendum #1322: Rebond DOT from Parallel Fi accounts - Description below

### Quadratic Funding in Polkadot

- **Purpose**: Introduce quadratic funding (QF) as an alternative to the current treasury spending model in the Polkadot ecosystem.
- **How it Works**:
  - Projects share a fixed public fund pool.
  - Community votes, calculated by the weighted square root of donations, determine the final distribution.
- **Benefits**:
  - Reduces the influence of large token holders.
  - Encourages broader community support.
- **Challenges**:
  - Potential for Sybil attacks (fake accounts).
  - Incentivizing donations when a public fund pool exists.
- **Implementation**:
  - Funding rounds with predetermined budgets.
  - Projects apply and are reviewed by curators.
  - Communities donate assets, and funds are distributed via child bounties.
- **Reputation System**:
  - Addresses have voting weights based on on-chain and off-chain activities.
- **Audit**:
  - Transparent fund distribution and voting weight information.
- **FAQ**:
  - QF is an alternative to, not a replacement for, OpenGov treasury funding.
  - Projects can apply for both QF and OpenGov funding.
  - Whales benefit from QF by improving treasury spending decisions.

Introduce quadratic funding to the polkadot treasury spending

JAMTON is a cross-chain layer designed to connect the TON ecosystem, with its 950 million Telegram users, to the Polkadot ecosystem. As a Polkadot parachain, JAMTON will facilitate seamless cross-chain communication, liquidity flow, and user interaction between the two ecosystems. The project aims to enable Polkadot-based projects to tap into the vast Telegram user base and liquidity.

Key points about JAMTON:
1. They launched the JAMTON parachain and plan a major testnet update in January.
2. JAMTON recently won the Hackers League Hackathon, securing 3rd place in the Interoperability category.
3. They have been working on several critical modules, including a Liquid Staking Protocol, Chain Abstraction Mechanism, and JAMTON dApp Development.
4. They have been actively addressing questions and concerns raised by the community within the Assembly.

JAMTON's benefits for the Polkadot Ecosystem:
- User Growth & Engagement: JAMTON offers a direct bridge to Telegram users, boosting user engagement and ecosystem participation.
- Increased Liquidity: By connecting Polkadot and TON ecosystems, JAMTON enables an inflow of liquidity from TON token holders into Polkadot-based projects.

Key deliverables of the JAMTON development include an EVM-compatible Polkadot parachain with built-in AMM DEX, order book DEX, and OpenGov, multi-chain liquid staking and restaking protocols, simplified entry for TON users and liquidity into the Polkadot ecosystem, and a Telegram Mini App for smooth interaction with JAMTON protocol and dApps.

JAMTON is seeking a treasury allocation of 78,800 USDT to fund the development of Milestone 1 of the project, which will cover development and deployment of JAMTON's protocol and infrastructure costs in the initial development phase.

Merkle Mountain Belts (MMBs) is a new data structure that improves on Merkle Mountain Ranges (MMRs), which are used in BEEFY. MMBs can save costs for users of bridges like Snowbridge and Hyperbridge, and have other uses in the Polkadot/JAM ecosystem. The project will be completed by December 2025 and will cost 506,110 USDC. The team behind MMBs has experience in Polkadot and includes a Ph.D. in mathematics and early developers of the Polkadot-Ethereum bridge. MMBs work well for recent data queries and can reduce fees in cross-chain bridges. The project has made changes based on feedback, including deferring part of the cost and reducing the success reward. For more information, you can read the full proposal and watch talks about MMBs.

Asset Decentralized Identifier Communication (AssetDIDcomm) is a project that aims to create a secure, encrypted, and decentralized data storage and messaging system for digital assets. It uses DID verifiable credentials to allow digital asset owners to store and retrieve encrypted data and messages throughout the asset's lifetime. The system will use the Kilt Protocol and Crust for digital identity and decentralized storage, respectively.

Xcavate, a foundational protocol built on Polkadot, focuses on tokenizing real estate assets for community investment and decentralized governance. They plan to launch their blockchain through Agile Core Time on Polkadot and have been accepted into the UK's FCA sandbox for regulatory compliance.

Traditionally, tokenizing real-world assets like real estate involves many third parties and can lead to issues such as data breaches, data manipulation, and lack of accountability. AssetDIDcomm aims to solve these problems by providing a decentralized and secure method for data storage and communication related to digital assets.

The project has gathered support and use cases from various members of the Polkadot ecosystem, including Archisinal, Aventus, and Mandala Chain. They believe that AssetDIDcomm can improve data security, transparency, and efficiency in various industries, including planning, construction, and government projects.

The main problems AssetDIDcomm aims to address are centralized storage, security and access, and data manipulation. By providing a decentralized solution, the project hopes to increase investor confidence, improve accountability, and reduce costs associated with data breaches and forensic investigations.
