Polkadot-API 2025 Development Funding through Polkadot Community Foundation

- A new proposal is being made to improve how users can move assets from Ethereum to Polkadot using Snowbridge.
- Many users are frustrated because they can't use their assets once they bridge them, mainly due to not enough liquidity (availability of money) in the system.
- The proposal asks for about $2,000 in DOT tokens to help create a better system for users to pay fees.
- This money will be used to increase the available liquidity for users, making it easier for them to swap assets.
- The goal is to have users enjoy a better experience and help them use their assets throughout the Polkadot ecosystem.
- The funds will be managed by two trusted people to ensure everything is done correctly.
- Overall, this will help more people use Polkadot and make it a better place for everyone.

Peer3 is creating an open-source Software Development Kit (SDK) that allows users to execute smart contracts directly with each other, bypassing the need for blockchain interaction. This project aims to improve the user experience of Polkadot by providing a real-time execution environment without transaction fees. The SDK enables real-time interactions, seamless interactions, and security from distributed ledgers. Peer3 has successfully delivered all milestones for a Level 3 Grant from the Web3 Foundation and is now seeking treasury funding for a production version of the SDK. The proposal includes a delayed payment of 350k USDT upfront and a delayed payment of 250k USDT and 30k DOT after 6 months. The funds will be used to hire more talent and cover operational costs. The project has potential use cases in gaming, payments, consumer applications, supply chain management, data marketplaces, social apps, and decentralized finance.

- This proposal aims to improve how users can transfer USDT and USDC, which are stablecoins, to the Polkadot system.
- Many users face difficulties because there's not enough liquidity to use these stablecoins once they arrive in Polkadot.
- The proposal asks for funds to create liquidity pools so users can swap their stablecoins for DOT tokens, which they need to pay fees.
- The plan includes converting the stablecoins to wrapped versions and creating pairs with DOT on Polkadot Asset Hub.
- Fixing these issues will help more people use the Polkadot ecosystem, as it currently makes onboarding hard for new users.
- The funds will be managed by a two-person multisignature team to ensure safety.
- The aim is to provide a better user experience and encourage more people to use Polkadot's tools.

Statescan is a tool for exploring certain blockchain networks. Here are some key points about it:

- It started in 2021 and helps people track Polkadot, Kusama, and other related chains.
- Statescan is open source, which means anyone can see and use its code for free.
- It is used by many different blockchain projects, including Nexus, Litentry, and Crust.
- The tool needs servers and a domain to work properly, costing around €3,051 in total for 18 months.
- Maintenance work involves keeping the servers running smoothly and fixing any issues that arise.
- There are plans for new features, which would cost $6,400 to develop.
- The total estimated cost for everything is around $67,051.

- This will help developers and users join the Polkadot ecosystem better.
- The idea started as a group project but had to be split into smaller parts.

Polkadot DeFi Singularity

Brave, a privacy-focused browser, plans to integrate Polkadot functionality into its self-custody wallet, giving its over 80 million monthly active users access to the Polkadot and Kusama ecosystems. This integration will be done natively in Brave's core C++ architecture over 12 months, with a 24-month maintenance period for updates and optimizations. The total investment for this project is $3,000,000 USDC. The development will be divided into five milestones, covering research, relay chains support, network and parachains support, assets support, and ecosystem integration and deployment. Brave will open-source all Polkadot-related code and commit to a 24-month maintenance period. Additionally, Brave will provide a $100K ad credit to Polkadot upon proposal approval. This integration aims to make Brave Wallet a true multi-chain platform and a gateway to Web3, enabling cross-parachain transactions and dApp interactions without third-party extensions.

Polkadot + Brave Wallet: Driving Adoption Through Native Integration

Subsquid Lab is asking for money to keep their public SQD Archives running. These archives help people find information on the Polkadot and Kusama networks. They want $264,838.09 to cover their costs. Here's what they did in the past few months:

1. They helped make the SQD Archives better by adding more storage and making it faster.
2. They launched the SQD mainnet, which helps make the Polkadot network more secure and faster.
3. They made it easier for developers to use their tools by adding new features to the Squid SDK.
4. They improved their Cloud API to help developers build better apps.

In the second quarter of 2024, they provided a lot of data and helped many people in the Polkadot community. They need money to keep doing this work.

- Feedback from the community is very welcome, and they hope to turn it into a treasury proposal.

Giant Squid Phase 2

RegionX parachain is a trustless marketplace for Coretime on Polkadot. It aims to help teams benefit from its features and delegate governance and revenue to DOT holders. The proposal seeks funding for deployment on Kusama and improving the Coretime Hub user interface. Polkadot is a scalable platform for hosting rollups, and attracting new teams is important. The marketplace is needed for secondary Coretime purchases, immediate use, and scaling on the go. RegionX parachain will use DOT as its native token for governance and fees, but it will not be a system chain to avoid burdening the Polkadot Fellowship.

The Gray Paper Reader is a tool that helps people work with the Gray Paper for JAM, the next generation of Polkadot Cloud. It makes sharing, annotating, and tracking changes in the document easier. The tool is open-source and already used by the community. FluffyLabs.dev, the creator of the tool, is asking for support to keep improving it.

The Gray Paper is important because it explains JAM in detail, but it's not easy to read and understand. There are over 20 teams working on JAM, and they all need to read the Gray Paper. The Gray Paper changes over time, and it's hard to keep track of these changes.

The Gray Paper Reader solves some problems with the PDF version of the Gray Paper. It's hard to share a part of the document, and notes can get lost when the document is updated. The Gray Paper Reader has features like an archive of different versions, easy switching between versions, and sharing short links to specific parts of the document.

The Gray Paper Reader is already being used a lot in the official chat room for the Gray Paper. The team behind it, FluffyLabs.dev, is asking for $21,000 to keep improving the tool. They have a plan for what they want to do in the future, and you can read more about it in their full proposal.

This proposal aims to bring 1 million user wallets to the Polkadot network through ongoing user funnels at strategic Billfold venues. It funds the production of four Bash events in the first half of the year and the placement of Billfold PoS in strategic venues, generating at least 1 million wallets and transactions in 2025. The Polkadot community has trusted PMEI to bring Billfold into the ecosystem, and now they want to drive as much usage to Polkadot as possible through existing and new Billfold users. Every new event attendee at a Billfold venue will get a new Polkadot wallet and be encouraged to transact on the network. PMEI is focused on creating self-sustaining user funnels through new venue partnerships, driving usage to the network through loyalty engagement and facilitating payments. They are not charging an agency fee on this proposal, only covering hard costs.
