- Evius creates important blockchain products for many users on different platforms like Astar, NEAR, and Bitcoin.
- The team has made cool tools like the first NFT marketplace and a platform to help artists create tokens.
- They noticed Polkadot doesn’t have a feature called meta-transactions, which lets users send transactions without paying fees directly.
- This is a problem because new users find it hard to get tokens for fees and the system can be complicated.
- They want to make it easier for users, improve security, and help Polkadot grow by creating a new template for these transactions. 
- This template will help people use apps without needing special tokens and will be safe from attacks.
- The goal is to make things better for everyone using Polkadot and its smart contracts.

**Background** Evius has spearheaded the development of products impacting millions of users in various blockchains, including Astar, NEAR, Solana, Stellar, Sei, Sui, and recently Bitcoin.

Our team always sets the bar on how developers utilize the chain. Our track records:

1.  Developed astar.paras.id, the first NFT marketplace in Ink! in 2023 within a week of the launch of Ink!. Supported by Sota Watanabe, founder of Astar.
2.  Developed Profond.ai, a no-code tool for artists and creators to launch their tokens and NFTs. Supported by Web3 Foundation.
3.  Developed Arkana.gg , an engagement platform (similar to Galxe) that uses meta-transaction in NEAR Protocol. Gaining 400K users within 3 months of release. Supported by NEAR Foundation.

Based on the [discussion on this forum](https://forum.polkadot.network/t/socialfi-platform-to-engage-and-bring-more-users-to-polkadot/9136/10), we found out that Polkadot still doesn't support meta-transaction, and we think it's something that will be helpful ease onboarding of web2 to web3 users considering Polkadot has started doing marketing to the mainstream users (such as Heroic & Conor Daly partnership).

To improve the developer’s experience as well as the users' experience of devs' work in the ecosystem, this proposal is submitted to propose treasury’s funding for the development of MIST, short for Meta-transaction Ink! Specification Template.

**Problem Statement** Meta-transactions allow users to execute blockchain transactions without directly paying for gas fees, with a third party (relayer) covering the costs. This can greatly improve user experience by removing the need for users to hold native tokens to interact with decentralized applications (DApps).

However, the current implementation of meta-transactions in the Polkadot ecosystem, especially for Ink! smart contracts, faces several challenges. New users often struggle to acquire the necessary tokens for transaction fees, creating a barrier to entry. The existing processes are complex and not user-friendly, discouraging non-technical users. Additionally, users must trust relayers to execute transactions without malicious intent, which poses security risks such as replay attacks and unauthorized actions. Performance bottlenecks and resource management issues also arise as the network scales, and the lack of a standardized approach leads to fragmentation and interoperability problems across different parachains and smart contracts.

To address these challenges, we propose developing a new specification for meta-transactions in Ink! smart contracts on Polkadot. This specification will focus on simplifying the user experience, making it easier for users to engage with DApps without needing native tokens. It will implement robust security mechanisms to ensure only authorized transactions are executed, protecting users from potential attacks.

The design will also prioritize scalability, handling a high volume of transactions efficiently. Finally, the specification will create a standardized framework for adoption across different parachains and smart contracts, ensuring seamless cross-chain communication and execution. By addressing these key areas, the new specification aims to enhance user experience, improve security, and support the scalable growth of the Polkadot ecosystem.

MIST - Meta-transaction Ink! Specification Template

- Tribe/AngelHack is asking for $359,000 to run the Polkadot Relayers program in 2024.
- This program helps people build apps called dApps on Polkadot.
- The first Polkadot Relayers started in 2022 and had great success.
- They want to focus on helping teams in Asia to grow the Polkadot community.
- The program will provide mentorship and investment for Project teams.
- They believe Asia can play a big role in making Polkadot stronger.
- The money will be used for operating costs and events related to the program.

**Proponent: **Tribe/AngelHack 13Ghf2T883ZobjngC1BAgR1BWvK2P7qP37gGxHDVFf3fjbmw

**Requested DOT:** USD$359,000.00

We are proposing to run the 2024 iteration of the Polkadot Relayers. This program is a community-first early-stage incubator programme that seeks to grow talented builders in their endeavour to build dApps on Polkadot’s parachains. The inaugural launch of the Polkadot Relayers took place in 2022, with its second edition in mid 2024. These runs saw a high success rate in bringing together developers and entrepreneurs, as well as providing individuals with a platform to actualise their innovative ideas. This year, the Relayers program seeks to focus on nurturing committed project teams looking for mentorship, investment, and ecosystem support whilst they build on Polkadot. As Web3 continues to provide opportunities for the underprivileged and geographically underserved, we believe that there’s all the more a need to reach out and grow Polkadot’s presence in these regions.

As such, we want to concentrate our existing efforts in growing Polkadot’s developer presence and respective community in APAC. This is because we strongly believe that Asia has the potential to become a strong foundational backbone to grow Polkadot and its influence around the world. We’ve also solidified this hypothesis of Asia being a key region to focus on through various conversations with Parity, our parachain partners, and other members of the Web3 Foundation across 2021-2024. Our past efforts in the region have also seen successful traction and we believe the attention on these events will continue to grow exponentially with consistent effort and initiatives.  

We initially submitted this proposal on the Polkadot Forum as part of the Decentralised Futures initiative but due to time constraints and our strong belief that we need to carry out this initiative in APAC for H2 2024, we are seeking support from the community and therefore the Treasury for the go-ahead to kickstart planning.

This first milestone request is USD$359,000 and it includes the budget required to operate this program, travel grants disbursement, and any IRL event expenses we are looking to undertake as part of the program. The funding requested will cover operating expenses as well as both the virtual and in-person logistics costs to launch and execute this program.

- Gulcan leads a program called Rise In that helps web2 developers learn about web3.
- They offer free training programs called bootcamps, where over 20,000 developers have participated.
- This year, they partnered with Polkadot to provide bootcamps in Turkey, with 2,000 students enrolled.
- Rise In also started programs in India, attracting 8,000 developers.
- They face some challenges, like keeping developers in the community and providing career opportunities.
- Rise In plans to create more courses, events, and hackathons to help developers build their careers.
- They want to onboard 10,000 developers and help 500 start working on projects in the Polkadot Ecosystem in 2024.

Hi all, I am Gulcan. We at [Rise In](https://www.risein.com/) onboard web2 developers into web3 with free-of-charge structured bootcamps, courses, and career and venture-building opportunities. We have 200,000+ web2 developers on our platform, with ~20k of them joining our web3 programs that we carry out in partnership with leading web3 protocols and ecosystems.

This year, we also partnered with Polkadot and have successfully delivered two cohorts of developer bootcamps for Polkadot in Turkey. The total number of students enrolled in the bootcamps exceeded 2,000 and has produced tangible evidence of developers entering and building in the Rust and Substrate Ecosystem. On top of that, we launched our web3 programs in India and already have 8,000 developers in India learning our courses and are interested in doing even more.

However, training is only the beginning of creating a sustainable developer community. The following problems persist:

- Graduating from the bootcamp is only the initial step for building a career. Developers question what they should stay in the Ecosystem, they want to see success stories. Otherwise, they simply leave.

- There is a lack of knowledge and opportunities related to earning and career-building opportunities in the Polkadot Ecosystem. Without an intentional marketing and community-building strategy with a dedicated team behind it, it’s very difficult to collect this information and present meaningful guidelines for developers.

- It’s difficult for developers to stay committed to an Ecosystem without physical communities. Physical events and being present at universities and hackathon environments provide confidence to developers to continue building in the Ecosystem.

That is why, this proposal aims to create a training and then career-building program for developers in Turkey and India. We propose to start with activating developers with an online course and bootcamp program in Turkey and India during 2024. Meanwhile, we’ll also do community events, hackathons, and integrate our students with the existing Polkadot Ecosystem, mainly parachains, to create success stories of developers.

As a result, we believe we can onboard 10,000 developers across Turkey and India in 2024 for the Polkadot Ecosystem through project partnerships, an enhanced bootcamp curriculum, 10 events, and 10 hackathons. We aim to bring in at least 500 developers building projects in the Ecosystem alongside 2,500+ new wallet addresses.

The full proposal is [here](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1LMVOrYz6zgteDVjccRKqi5IDuH3IESDiOuU8I518pWw/edit#heading=h.w88cwqviv60a).

Since this proposal involves the Polkadot Ecosystem, we’d appreciate your feedback on how we can turn it into reality. If we approach developer activation and retention from a professional point of view with its own dedicated effort, we can see a dedicated community in two of the largest web3 talent countries in the world, Turkey and India!

Greetings to all esteemed members of the Polkadot community. We are the Polkadot Ecology Research Institute, a well-known research organization from the Chinese Polkadot community. We are submitting a new treasury proposal to request operating expenses from October 2023 to March 2024. This is a formal application, and below is our development process for your reference.

Polkadot Ecology Research Institute was founded in October 2020, it has been in operation for exactly three years. In the past 36 months, we've produced 185 in-depth articles on Polkadot ecology, with an average of over 5,000 words per article and some even exceeding 10,000 words. In total, we have generated over 1 million words of original content and have become the most productive research institution for Polkadot original content production in the Chinese community.

Our original content has been recommended by many well-known global media outlets, including Tencent News, Jinse Finance, MarsBit News, Odaily, Tuoluo Tech, CC Value, Huoxun Finance, Cointelegraph, Metaverse Hub, 8btc, PANews, Web3Caff, Foresight News and Blocklike.

Moreover, we are the only Chinese media outlet that publishes content on Polkadot's official Medium, which was shared by Polkadot's official Twitter and liked by Gavin. You can find our contributions [here](https://medium.com/polkadot-network/one-article-to-understand-the-past-present-and-future-of-web-3-0-5433962b7c3e).

Our story with Polkadot dates back to 2019 when we started promoting Polkadot in China. We also co-hosted the 2019 Polkadot China Tour and held a significant offline event in Chengdu, where Polkadot founder Gavin Wood was in attendance, which became Gavin's last personal participation in a Polkadot community event due to COVID-19. 

Therefore, our involvement with Polkadot's development in the Chinese community has been ongoing for nearly five years. We have passionately contributed to the construction and growth of Polkadot within the Chinese community, witnessing its progress from inception to its current state. If you were to inquire about us within the Chinese community, it is highly likely that you would hear about our experiences.

Besides content creation and production, we have actively promoted Polkadot in various communities and events. In the past few years, we have participated in over 60 events, and as guests, we have continually taken part in the global sharing activities of the Polkadot Decoded Community Conference in both 2022 and 2023. Up to now, we have reached out to more than 30,000 people in our promotions throughout China.

In addition, we have been empowering the development of the Polkadot ecosystem. So far, we have provided content/activity/community support to more than 100 Polkadot ecosystem projects to meet their needs for ecological development. Although we are based on the Chinese market, but we have also offered help and support to many global Polkadot ecosystem projects, as a non-profit contribution.

The above are the contributions we have made to Polkadot in China over the past few years. However, it may not be possible to fully introduce our experiences and dedication, but every word and sentence in our content reflects the efforts we have invested in the development of the Polkadot ecosystem.

In this proposal, we are applying for 6 months of operating funds mainly to cover daily personnel expenses, amounting to 28010 DOT (about 104760 USD). This is also our seventh time submitting a Polkadot Treasury application. You can refer to the detailed proposal [here](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1h_hmtFyvQ5hsncF5mE98XKnGPkxPItjT2GS8FnZHSfI/edit?usp=sharing).

In fact, apart from personnel expenses, we have always borne the business costs and travel expenses for participating in various Polkadot events ourselves over the past several years, and this continues with this proposal.

Perhaps many overseas members do not fully understand the influence of Polkadot in China. Nevertheless, the success of Polkadot today cannot be separated from the development and assistance of the Chinese community. Although compared to the previous years, the overall market for Polkadot has been a decline, and many media and KOLs have left the Polkadot ecosystem, we still insist on producing content because we are optimistic about the future development of Polkadot, and we have faith that Gavin's vision for Web3 will ultimately come to fruition.

We have recently published a nearly 30,000-word in-depth report on Polkadot, which should be the most comprehensive and multi-dimensional original report in the current market, and it also puts forward our suggestions on the future development of Polkadot. If you are interested, please feel free to click the links below to access the report:

[English version](https://forum.polkadot.network/t/polkadot-growth-strategy-report-building-a-continuously-growing-future-for-polkadot/4317)

The report has received over 30,000 views in less than two days since its release and has also generated significant response within the Chinese community. The number of views is still steadily increasing.

Finally, if any community members have questions or thoughts regarding this treasury proposal, please feel free to leave us a comment. We will be happy to answer any queries you may have.

Community-Centric Blockchain Education: Dacade's Commitment to Polkadot's Growth via learning through sharing

- t3rn has created a special tool called a trustless Ethereum 2.0 light client.
- This tool works with Polkadot and other blockchains in its ecosystem.
- It helps make it easier for different blockchains to talk to each other.
- t3rn will use this tool in their parachain and offer it through an API.
- It makes using smart contracts simpler and faster.
- t3rn is looking for help to pay for a security check before they share their product.

t3rn has developed a trustless Ethereum 2.0 light client as a Substrate Pallet, compatible with all Dotsama Parachains, for the benefit of the Polkadot Ecosystem. t3rn’s parachain will have the Ethereum 2.0 light client pallet installed on Polkadot and will be available via an accessible API; our portal precompile interface simplifies integration with smart contracts, enhancing process automation.  
  
The clients standard pallet interface streamlines blockchain interactions, reducing technical difficulties and boosting efficiency. Lastly, through the use of the t3rn protocol, we facilitate secure and convenient cross-chain transfers and swaps, broadening the reach of blockchain operations.  
  
Having developed the pallet, we are seeking support in covering the auditing costs, ensuring utmost security, before pushing our product to market.

Hello community,

On this occasion, I would like to present a tribute to [AG](https://x.com/angeinweb3) and me for our work as Polkadot ambassadors during the activities held from Monday 9th to Friday 13th June in Caracas.

As you can see on [Space4Build's](https://x.com/space4build) social media, I participated as a speaker at the Institutional Conference "New Web3 Business Models" organized by the Venezuelan Banking Association. For four days, this event brought together representatives from the financial system, academia, auditing firms, real-estate companies, regulatory authorities, radio and television media, and technology providers.&#x20;

[Reference1](https://x.com/Space4Build/status/1934721989165342789)

This event allowed us to showcase Polkadot technology to the country's entrepreneurs, executives, and legislators in a way that had never been done before. During the four days of the institutional conference, we answered questions from participants and made the necessary contacts to advance each organization's projects.


![photo\_5105252300351451089\_w.jpg](https://i.ibb.co/PpBPrTJ/photo-5105252300351451089-w.jpg)


During the four days of activities, attendance averaged 150, reaching a peak of 170 on the last day, which was my presentation. The main features of the technology available in Polkadot and its ecosystem were presented to this audience.

I would like to mention that although the activity was private and had a ticket fee, we did not receive any compensation for our participation.

Additionally, we held a private meeting with the Director of the United Nations Development Programme (PUND, [https://x.com/pnud](https://x.com/pnud)) in Venezuela and the business partnership manager, who expressed interest in incorporating Polkadot technology into the sustainable development projects they are carrying out.

As an additional note, during our stay in Caracas, we also held a meetup with several biker communities, mostly entrepreneurs who also want to use the technology in their activities to make their activities more transparent. This specific meetup will be presented to the meetup bounty in the coming days.

In closing, I would like to add that neither AG nor I are part of any ecosystem organization or treasury, and as ambassadors, we have not received sponsorship or PIF for these activities.

We kindly request 250 DOTs each for our time.

Best regards,

Saimon ([https://x.com/simonxpe](https://x.com/simonxpe/status/1935718653661479099))

The Gitorial VS Code Extension is a new tool that helps developers learn and build projects using step-by-step tutorials directly within Visual Studio Code. It was created to solve the problem of disjointed learning experiences in fast-paced ecosystems like Polkadot. The extension is integrated with Git, making it easy to follow each step and maintain accurate information. It also helps developers be more productive by giving them immediate access to language servers and code execution within the IDE.

The Gitorial VS Code Extension was built in collaboration with Shawn Tabrizi and Batman from DotCodeSchool. They are working on integrating the extension with their platform and planning future updates, like creating and editing tutorials directly in VS Code.

The proposal asks for funding to cover the initial development and launch of the extension, as well as minor improvements and bug fixes. The total cost is 1660 DOT, which is about $7,470. The money will be split between two proponents, with one receiving 1560 DOT and the other receiving 100 DOT. The hourly rate for the work is $90/hr, and the total time spent on the project is 83 hours.

You can try out the Gitorial VS Code Extension and explore the spec draft using the links provided. The creators, Andrey Dodonov and Andrzej Sulkowski, are graduates of the Polkadot Blockchain Academy.

[Retroactive] Funding for Gitorial VS Code Extension (Interactive Git Tutorials)

A proposal has been made to allocate 5 million DOT (Polkadot's native token) towards DeFi incentives on Hydration, a platform that provides liquidity for Polkadot. The incentives will be distributed over 12 months and are divided into three parts: 2 million DOT for stablecoin incentives, 2 million DOT for liquidity provider (LP) incentives, and 1 million DOT to mint GIGADOT. The goal is to attract users, deepen liquidity, and strengthen Polkadot's position in the DeFi space. The proposal builds on the success of the previous Hydration liquidity campaign that started in June 2024. The funds will be kept in a proxy on Hydration, allowing Opengov to reclaim unspent funds and track the balance. A referendum will be launched to return 3 million DOT if the proposal is passed, with the remaining 2 million DOT distributed over 6 months. This will support the launch of Polkadot Hub and create synergies with existing DeFi products.

Polkadot GIGAHydration Campaign

Bifrost has proposed a liquidity loan to the Polkadot treasury, requesting a loan of 1,000,000 DOT (about $4,000,000) to be repaid with 6% interest. This loan aims to increase vDOT-DOT liquidity, support vDOT growth, and expand its use in DeFi applications within the Polkadot ecosystem. Bifrost has a good track record of repaying treasury loans with interest, having brought a total income of 8,370.5523 KSM to the Kusama Treasury. The loan will be used to mint vDOT, diversifying the Polkadot treasury's DOT capital and earning staking rewards. Bifrost is a liquid staking app-chain for all blockchains, allowing users to earn staking rewards and DeFi yields across multiple chains. The loan's success will be measured by tracking vDOT minting TVL, DOT-vDOT liquidity growth, unique address growth rate, and new vDOT ecosystem integrations.

A person named @subway2023 found 18 problems in a computer program called the Parity Technologies revive Solidity compiler. They told the people who work on the program about these problems over 3 months. These problems helped the program get better and fix some mistakes. The person in charge of the program thinks @subway2023 did a great job and wants to give them a reward of 100. You can see all the problems they found here: [link](https://github.com/paritytech/revive/issues?q=is%3Aissue%20author%3Asubway2023). And here is the place where they talked about giving the reward: [link](https://github.com/paritytech/revive/issues/253#issuecomment-2694530520).

Github user @subway2023 submitted 18 issues over the course of 3 months to the parityech revive Solidity compiler.

The issues submitted to us provide valuable early stage contributions to the project. Some of them lead to bug fixes in the revive compiler and the polkadot-sdk.

As the maintainer of the of the revive compiler I suggest to reward this contributor with 100.

Small Tip for subway2023

The Infrastructure Builders Program (IBP) is a group of independent companies that help the Polkadot network and its parachains with important services. They were started in 2022 and are spread all over the world, making them strong and reliable. They need more money to keep helping the network.

The money they ask for is to add to the IBP bounty, which is managed by five people who work with Polkadot. The bounty pays them for their work only after they have done it. The amount they want is for the most they could possibly do, but last year they only spent $2,490,996 for 552 Relay and System-chain and 154 Parachain RPC nodes.

They get paid for the RPC services they provide every month based on how much they did. You can read the full proposal by clicking [here](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1aK7XtMmpF5FVlt9FGP1puVPHGRktbFQ8M9o6Dh3u9jw).

Some people in the network have given feedback, and IBP services won't be given to those who have clearly cheated the treasury.
