Proponent: 12uokSRn2hmEWPZuzHK1xqnFxRgyoApLtXRBd4jFan2x2T1P

Short description:

The DotSama ecosystem is fundamentally complex.

Relay chains, Parachains, Crowdloans and Cross-chain transactions are technologies that require users to juggle a lot of new concepts in real-time.
With this alluring novelty come a lot of unwanted risks: errors when transferring funds, incompatibility between account types, limited integration of cold storage devices, hacks on experimental trading protocols, phishing on community forums, lack of clarity around legal obligations, etc.

Dot.alert() is a knowledgebase that provides practical guidelines for managing assets safely across the DotSama ecosystem.

This proposal aims to establish a social contract between Dot.alert() and the Polkadot Treasury to fund the operational costs of the platform.
