Pitcoin, a Polkadot senior ambassador and Astar Network Ecosystem Agent, has proposed a request for retroactive funding for 14 pieces of content related to the Polkadot ecosystem. The requested amount is 200 DOT. The content includes articles and threads on various topics such as Mandala Chain, Polkadot Voting Collectives, Decentralized Grants W3F, and more.

Retroactive Small Tips for Content (February)

The OpenGov Community Voting Discord Bot project did not have enough money and was too hard to make. The person who made it got paid very little money for their work. Now, there is a new program called Decentralized Voices that helps people in the Polkadot community make decisions together. The Discord bot is important for this program because it helps people start new groups to make decisions. The person who made the bot wants more money to finish the bot and add new features. They want the Polkadot community to give them more money so they can make the bot better and help more people.

WHO: The author of the proposal. 

WHAT: The proposal seeks to address the previous funding gap and to expedite the completion of pending features from the initial proposal. 

PRICE/TIMEFRAME/RESOURCES: The proposal calls for additional funding to ensure the rapid development and deployment of the bot to support the burgeoning needs of the Decentralized Voices program and the wider Polkadot community. No specific price or timeframe is mentioned.

A request has been made to refill the marketing bounty number #33 with 250k DOT. The previous refill of 100k was almost spent before the spending period ended, which could have led to no funds for marketing for a month. To avoid such situations, especially with the uncertainty introduced by DV, it is important to have several months' worth of spending in reserve. Bounty #41 will be abandoned, and an amendment will be made to bounty #33 with this specific referendum. The purpose of this bounty is to support marketing for Polkadot without specific rules or restrictions. The only rule is that if a curator is involved in a proposal, they must abstain from voting. All reports regarding expenses and deliveries will be available at the provided link.

- Bifrost secured a lease for a period called 16-23 through a crowdloan.
- Their current lease for para 2030 is for a different time, called lease 15.
- There will be a pause in block production for para 2030 during this lease swap, lasting about 4-8 hours.
- The suggested solution is to clear lease 16-23 and add it to para 2030.
- This process will involve specific steps to release and then reserve funds called DOT.
- The governance track has certain time limits and costs involved, ensuring a smooth transition.
- There may be some risks with how leases are changed, but unlocking funds should happen normally.

lease_admin

Bifrost wants to clear its lease for para 3356 and add the corresponding lease period to para 2030 to avoid an interruption in block production. The suggested solution is to use the Lease Admin governance track, and the cost is a decision deposit of 5000 DOT. The potential risk is that it may affect the normal expiration and unlocking of the two crowdloans, but it is assessed that it will not.

Rising Karting Star Seeks Polkadot Partnership(withdrawn)

Hello! Cris_Pap here. I want to tell you about some changes in PolkadotJs. Now, when you ask for DOT, you need to add 10 extra zeros, not 12. 

Before, we used a thing called "treasury->spend(amount, beneficiary)" but it's gone now. Instead, we use "spendLocal(amount, beneficiary)". There's also a new thing called "spend(assetKind, amount, beneficiary, validForm)" which might be about a new payment way, but I don't know how to use it yet.

It would be great if there was a special place to learn about all these changes. If you know one, please tell me in the comments. Thanks and sorry for any trouble!
