1. **Context**: KodaDot is the leading NFT marketplace on Polkadot Asset Hub, handling over 40,000 daily requests and maintaining 75,000+ NFT metadata entries.

6. **Budget**: $280,000 allocated over five milestones, including 12 months of maintenance.

7. **Progress Tracking**: Publicly tracked on GitHub for transparency and community involvement.

8. **Impact**: Ensures KodaDot continues as a public good for the Polkadot ecosystem, enhancing NFT trading capabilities.
