Welcome to the Core Grants Program by Mina Foundation! The project's mission is to empower and support innovation within the Mina ecosystem.
Embark on a journey of contribution and innovation with these simple steps:
- 🍴 Fork and Propose: Start by forking this repository. In the RFCs directory, create a new markdown document using our RFC template to share your innovative ideas.
- 💬 Pull Request for Feedback: Commit your RFC document to your fork and open a pull request here. This is where your ideas get discussed and refined with community inputs.
- 🎨 From RFC to RFP: Once an RFC is finalized, it evolves into an RFP (Request for Proposal) stage where we issue grants for fulfilling the RFC objectives.
- 🔄 Creation and Delivery: This cycle continues until there exists tangible results — be it software, designs, or other forms of output.
Your innovative solutions could receive grants from Mina Foundation, subject to milestone achievements and Mina Foundation's KYC/AML requirements.
- 🌐 Ecosystem Advancement: Here, we focus on proposals originating from RFCs, covering specific scopes and deliverables.
- 🌍 Public Goods: Aimed at supporting new developments, maintenance, or enhancement of Mina Protocol.
