We, Otar and Raul of JUST Ventures GmbH, are submitting a second retroactive funding proposal to the Polkadot Treasury, following the approval of our first request covering 01.12.2022 &ndash; 31.03.2024. This new proposal seeks funding for our contributions from 01.04.2024 &ndash; 31.12.2024.
Over this period, our work has included supporting and executing runtime upgrades, facilitating OpenGov implementation, guiding treasury proposals, providing technical assistance, managing governance discussions, supervising bounties, and engaging in key ecosystem initiatives. We have also been involved in projects like the Polkadot Ecosystem Map and the Polkadot Community Foundation advisory process among others.&nbsp;
The requested funding will allow us to compensate for the work done and continue our work within the Polkadot ecosystem, focusing on governance, technical support, and community initiatives. By maintaining a retroactive funding model, we ensure that contributions are compensated based on actual work completed rather than estimated upfront. To further simplify financial planning, minimise volatility, and align with community standards, this time around, we are requesting compensation in Stablecoins.
Beyond financial reimbursement, the approval of this proposal also signals the community&rsquo;s intent for us to continue our work under these same retroactive terms.
📌 Before finalising our submission, we invite the community to review the full proposal and provide feedback:&nbsp;
