Bringing polkawatch analytics closer to every nominator, where decentralization actually takes place.
In line with our promotion strategy, integration in ecosystem projects, usage of Polkawatch has grown significantly:

Over the last 12 months, we have delivered over 20K decentralization reports to more than 7K nominators. (Excludes API usage).
A significant portion of DOT nominators care about decentralization, review their nominations and act accordingly.
Polkawatch was inittially backed by Web3 foundation, and developed with support of both Kusama and Polkadot treasuries.
We delivered 100% of our milestones, and systematically report and contain recurrent costs, as a result the cost of maintaining Polkawatch is roughly USD 3.5K per month (or 0.5 USD per user/month) including full archive nodes of Relay and People chains.&nbsp;
We are looking to retroactively fund continued operation and maintenance of Polkawatch for Q1-Q3 2024.&nbsp;
You can Download our <a href="https://pwh.li/dot24q13p">detailed proposal</a> for further detail.
And do not hesitate to reach out with feedback.
