As requested by several parties, we started a new proposal asking for USDT. (<a href="1332">Link to old proposal</a>)
We'd like to fund maintenance of the <a href="https://github.com/scs/substrate-api-client">substrate-api-client</a> from January 2025 until June 2025.
The <a href="https://github.com/scs/substrate-api-client">substrate-api-client</a> is a Rust library for connecting to a substrate-based node via RPC from a no-std environment, like trusted execution environments or IoT devices. An RPC client is a library, with similar features as <a href="https://wiki.polkadot.network/docs/polkadotjs">Polkadot-js</a>. With an RPC client developers can easily interact with any Polkadot or Kusama chain. There are <a href="https://wiki.polkadot.network/docs/build-tools-index#rpc-and-api-tools">RPC clients</a> for different programming languages. For Rust, the most popular RPC client is subxt. The substrate-api-client uses core functionality of <a href="https://github.com/paritytech/subxt">subxt</a> and makes it available in a no-std environment.
This proposal is a continuation of our previous maintenance proposals. The previous proposal can be found <a href="792">here</a>. See also our reports in the comments section of each proposal. We aim to seek ongoing funding.
Details can be found in our <a href="https://docs.google.com/document/d/1HCRDQOoGPwEjs4N1e8IXx7enhpdJ5CoTSnKhfBTk4To/edit?usp=sharing">full proposal</a>
Requested Funding: $33&rsquo;200

Maintenance for the substrate-api-client Jan-25 to Jun-25

Treasury

Propose and approve a spend of treasury funds.

## Dispatch Origin

Must be [`Config::SpendOrigin`] with the `Success` value being at least
`amount` of `asset_kind` in the native asset. The amount of `asset_kind` is converted
for assertion using the [`Config::BalanceConverter`].

## Details

Create an approved spend for transferring a specific `amount` of `asset_kind` to a
designated beneficiary. The spend must be claimed using the `payout` dispatchable within
the [`Config::PayoutPeriod`].

### Parameters
- `asset_kind`: An indicator of the specific asset class to be spent.
- `amount`: The amount to be transferred from the treasury to the `beneficiary`.
- `beneficiary`: The beneficiary of the spend.
- `valid_from`: The block number from which the spend can be claimed. It can refer to
  the past if the resulting spend has not yet expired according to the
  [`Config::PayoutPeriod`]. If `None`, the spend can be claimed immediately after
  approval.

## Events

Emits [`Event::AssetSpendApproved`] if successful.

- **Problem Statement:** Requesting funding of $33,200 for maintaining the substrate-api-client from January 2025 to June 2025.
- **Significance:** Ensuring the upkeep of a crucial Rust library for connecting to substrate-based nodes, facilitating interactions with Polkadot or Kusama chains.
- **Proposed Solution:** Continuation of maintenance proposals to support ongoing development and availability of the substrate-api-client.
- **Expected Outcomes:** Sustained functionality and accessibility of the substrate-api-client for developers working in no-std environments.
