GM Polkadot friends - we need your support 
WAGOI is on a mission to fix something that&rsquo;s been broken for way too long&mdash;vehicle data ownership.&nbsp;Right now, car manufacturers collect and sell your data, making billions while you get nothing. But thanks to the EU Data Act, that&rsquo;s about to change. And WAGOI is here to make sure the power goes back where it belongs&mdash;to the drivers.
And guess what? We&rsquo;re building this on Polkadot. Period. 
Other chains have offered grants to jump ship, but we believe in Polkadot&rsquo;s vision of true decentralization and enterprise adoption. We just need the support of the community to get our MVP over the finish line. Timing is everything. We&rsquo;ve outlined our first milestone &amp; the budget in detail in the attached document :&nbsp;
<a href="https://docs.google.com/document/d/1WR211n11WR8jpGxITJi5ulEmLpeWaL3SVV4D1_1dLdw/edit?pli=1&amp;tab=t.0">https://docs.google.com/document/d/1WR211n11WR8jpGxITJi5ulEmLpeWaL3SVV4D1_1dLdw/edit?pli=1&amp;tab=t.0</a>
I know&hellip; the document is 18 pages long. And yes, some parts&mdash;like the legislation&mdash;might feel a bit dry. But in our case, it&rsquo;s crucial. Without regulations like the EU Data Act, our business case wouldn&rsquo;t even exist&hellip;
Our goal is to submit this to the Treasury, but before we do, we&rsquo;d love to hear your feedback. What&rsquo;s still unclear? What can we improve to maximize our chances when we post this as a proposal? All input from the community is more than welcome.
We believe this is the perfect use case to show the world&mdash;and the EU regulators&mdash;that blockchain isn&rsquo;t just for speculation. It&rsquo;s for real-world solutions.
Thank you all,
Mario Schraepen

I&rsquo;ve made this discussion post open to everyone, not just registered users, so anyone can share their feedback on the proposal. I know that in the Web3 world, this comes with some risk&mdash;but I&rsquo;m choosing to believe we&rsquo;ll get constructive input to help push Polkadot forward.
