MGP-14: $9600 for EthSignals
The ask
EthSignals Team (Max Semenchuk, Bohdan Malkebych, Anett Rolíková) are requesting funds on improving of Ethereum governance through increasing the volume of signaling around EIPs and general governance stances. This is done through the app called Tennagraph that is the hub for collecting the community sentiment (support or opposition) to specific proposals. It provides perspectives through:
- Coinvoting
- Gas Voting
- Rated influencer stances
Background
The project started from the Phil Lucsok and Griff Green presentation on July 2018. The working group was formed shortly. The project was funded on Giveth by Griff Green, then with the Aragon Nest grant and later on GitCoin and WeTrust. Collectively over $43k was attracted for the development and community work. Currently, we have no legal entity and the funds are managed through the EthSignals DAO. Info on the team:
