**Proponent:** 12uokSRn2hmEWPZuzHK1xqnFxRgyoApLtXRBd4jFan2x2T1P

**Date:** 12.09.2022

**Requested:** 2,493 DOT (i.e USD $18,840 calculated from the [7-day EMA](https://polkadot.subscan.io/tools/charts?type=price) price of DOT)

**Short description:** 

The DotSama ecosystem is fundamentally complex. 

Relay chains, Parachains, Crowdloans and Cross-chain transactions are technologies that require users to juggle a lot of new concepts in real-time.
With this alluring novelty come a lot of unwanted risks: errors when transferring funds, incompatibility between account types, limited integration of cold storage devices, hacks on experimental trading protocols, phishing on community forums, lack of clarity around legal obligations, etc.

**[Dot.alert()](https://dot-alert.gitbook.io/dot.alert/)** is a knowledgebase that provides practical guidelines for managing assets safely across the DotSama ecosystem.

**This proposal aims to establish a social contract between Dot.alert() and the Polkadot Treasury to fund the operational costs of the platform.**
