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.

On April 16th, James Slusser and Phunky attended FBBA's "Blockchain Day" in Tallahassee to advocate for the Polkadot ecosystem. They networked with legislators, answered questions, and explained Polkadot's features and benefits. They also met with Commissioner Weigel and his staff to discuss legal language for DAOs. Polkadot was recognized in both House and Senate chambers, thanks to DOT token holders joining the FBBA. Phunky and James were not compensated for their advocacy work, and they are requesting a tip to help cover their costs.

I would like to propose a tip for James Slusser and myself for our advocacy of the Polkadot ecosystem on Wednesday, April 16th during FBBA's "Blockchain Day" in Tallahassee. We both had an incredible day networking with legislators in both the House and Senate, answering their questions and telling them about Polkadot.

In every meeting we had with legislators and their aides, James went to great lengths to explain : 1) what Polkadot is; 2) how our governance system works; 3) why our security and scalability provide enterprise grade solutions via blockchain technology; 4) that the State of Florida should provide a legal framework for DAOs.

Later in the afternoon, we had an hour long roundtable with Commissioner Weigel and his staff at the Office of Financial Regulation, during which we both encouraged them to continue their work with the Florida Bar to investigate potential avenues to craft legal language that could be used for. a future bill during the next legislative session.

Moreover, thanks to DOT token holders previous decision to join the FBBA (Florida Business Blockchain Association), President Sam Armes made sure that Polkadot was recognized in both chambers before the House and Senate began conducting their legal business for the day.

You can read a longer reflection that I posted on X the next day [HERE](https://x.com/ThePhunky1/status/1912854196627341624).

On a final note, I would like the community to know that neither of us was previously compensated to do this advocacy work. The tip will help defray the costs of getting to the capitol, and spending nearly 10 hours of our time there on behalf of Polkadot.

Thank you in advance for your consideration,

Phunky

Polkadot had a problem with its software update, which stopped three staking accounts from getting rewards. A proposal has been made to give these accounts the rewards they missed out on. The proposal looks at how much money was in the accounts when the rewards stopped, how many times they didn't get rewards, and how much the rewards would have been worth during that time. Here are the details for each account:

1. Account 138fZsNu67JFtiiWc1eWK2Ev5jCYT6ZirZM288tf99CUHk8K:
   - Last reward: Era 1400
   - Last balance: 8,556 DOT
   - Missed rewards: 197 eras
   - Average yearly reward: 17.18%
   - Missing rewards: 1,603.46 DOT

2. Account 15bt67qghz8hJxCUPgAXmzVxUBHLpPN41RVm2nwMFyLWByVE:
   - Last reward: Era 1646
   - Last balance: 4,261 DOT
   - Missed rewards: 37 eras
   - Average yearly reward: 12.93%
   - Missing rewards: 587.11 DOT

3. Account 12gmcL9eej9jRBFT26vZLF4b7aAe4P9aEYHGHFzJdmf5arPi:
   - Last reward: Era 1402
   - Last balance: 7,110 DOT
   - Missed rewards: 211 eras
   - Average yearly reward: 16.96%
   - Missing rewards: 1,313.76 DOT

**SUMMARY**

The Polkadot runtime upgrade to v1.1.2 introduced an unintentional breaking change that prevented three staking accounts from receiving staking rewards across multiple eras. This proposal seeks to reimburse these accounts for the rewards they should have earned for backing validators and securing the network.

The process was detailed by core developer gpestana in multiple articles compiled in the following Polkadot Forum post:

[Recover corrupted Staking ledgers in Polkadot and Kusama](https://forum.polkadot.network/t/recover-corrupted-staking-ledgers-in-polkadot-and-kusama/9796)

The referendum could not be proposed until the runtime upgrade to v1.4.0, which corrected the balance state of one of the affected accounts ([PR 538](https://github.com/polkadot-fellows/runtimes/pull/538)).

**TIMELINE**

-   2024-02-19 Breaking change introduced in runtime upgrade v1.1.2
-   2024-03-15 Hotfix on runtime upgrade to v1.1.3.
-   2024-10-15 Runtime upgrade to v1.3.3 set the correct ledger/stash status.
-   2025-02-26 The balance issue for one of the accounts was corrected on runtime v.1.4.0.

**PROPOSAL DETAILS**

Each account faced a unique situation, and the analysis took into account the bonded funds at the time rewards ceased, the number of eras the payee account went without receiving rewards, and the average APY during that period.

Below is the information for each affected account:

Affected account: 138fZsNu67JFtiiWc1eWK2Ev5jCYT6ZirZM288tf99CUHk8K

However, the account 15bt67 kept receiving rewards until era 1646. During era 1683, the account 14kwUJ 'voterlist' score [was updated](https://polkadot.subscan.io/extrinsic/24214751-3?event=24214751-64) and the same account started to receive rewards at era 1684.

To sustain and enhance <a href="https://github.com/paseo-network">Paseo Network's</a> impact, this proposal seeks funding to continue operations in 2025, ensuring the same high level of service from a dedicated group of ecosystem contributors.
We are requesting a top-up of $653,500.00 from the Polkadot treasury to cover operational costs for 2025. The funds will be managed via the original <a href="https://polkadot.subsquare.io/treasury/bounties/37">Paseo Bounty (#37)</a>, with payments distributed quarterly over the 12-month funding period.
Along with this funding request, we are proposing several efficiency improvements to make bounty management more transparent and automated. These include changing the curator set, retroactive payments at the end of each quarter, eliminating the need for manual payout requests, automating validator payouts, and implementing performance-based benchmarks to ensure validators and service providers meet expected reliability standards.
For more information, we encourage ecosystem participants to <a href="https://docs.google.com/document/d/195BTcx_rz3tx-PWIxc7T5VQjeXaolx09ltT7KxYIQ0k/edit?usp=sharing">review the full proposal</a>&nbsp;

Paseo - Developer Testnet Bounty Top-up Request

- The proposal is about continuing to fund RPC Providers for six months plus one extra month.
- The total funding needed is $171,951.34, which is about $22,142 each month.
- Bounty 31 is a project that helps pay vendors for specific services on Polkadot.
- Service providers will bid for this funding based on the needs set by curators.
- The best providers that meet quality standards will be given the funding.
- This plan helps reduce the need for more proposals and keeps costs fair.
- If providers don't meet the quality, they might lose their funding.

Dear community,
I present this proposal on the authorization of the curators of bounty 31.
This proposal seeks to continue funding of Public RPC Providers for the period of six months plus an additional month's contingency. Funding is issued to bounty 31 which awards vendors for RPC services on the Polkadot relay-chain as well as its system parachains. The total cost for such provision is USD$171,951.34, which represents $22,141.98 per month without contingency and administrative expenses.
Bounty 31 adopts an tender based procurement model in which service providers bid on requirements as set-out by the curators. The tender requirements are aligned to ecosystem needs and can scale up/down depending on usage. Tenders are scored and the highest scoring providers receive funding. Attention is also being placed on quality of service and should service providers fail to meet said quality-standards they will be penalized or lose funding altogether.
This approach has seen a reduction with independent funding proposals for such services and steering of providers to a "market rate".
Further details can be found <a href="https://docs.google.com/document/d/1WV7n5HVKtO5s0ub6g4uEQAN4Y7SRNcu56QYFXPgN15I/edit?tab=t.0">here</a>

- Bearofthenet is a hobby racer from Austria.
- He wants to represent Polkadot, a cryptocurrency, at European racetracks.
- He participates in about 5 racing weekends each year, mostly in Austria and nearby countries.
- Around 200 riders race each weekend, meaning many people will see his special suit.
- He plans to share pictures and videos of his races on social media.
- He needs support to cover the costs of his custom racing suit.
- He loves combining motorsport with technology like web3.

Hello everyone,

On „X“ I am „bearofthenet“.

Im a hobby racer from Austria and would love to represent polkadot on the european racetracks.

In this motorsport you see sponsoring everywhere but i never saw any rider wearing some crypto stuff.  
Just want to say im not a professional attending international races, we are just a group of petrolheads living our dream🔥

I usually attend about 5 race weekends per year, the most tracks are spread over Austria, Hungary, Slovakia and Croatia, eventually italy.

About 200 riders attend per wekend, so minimum 1000 riders will see this exclusive suit per year and ill be wearing that suit minimum for 4 Years.

ill post trackpics and reels tagging Polkadot after every event on X and other social plattforms.

The requested amount will be just enough to cover most costs of this tailormade suit.

Hope you find the idea of combining the passion for motorsport and web3 as exciting as i do.

Bear

- KSM trading started on Hydration after a vote approved funds from the Treasury.
- This allows money to move between Kusama and Polkadot.
- When sending KSM or DOT, if a user lacks enough funds, part of what they're sending is used for fees.
- This makes it easier for users since they don't need extra money for fees.
- However, users can lose more money than expected due to high fees.
- A new proposal aims to provide liquidity by supplying DOT and KSM to help with these transactions.
- Extra tokens returned to their treasuries after use.
