In our recent referendum 33, DOT holders decided against funding Encointer’s current burn rate of 100kCHF/mt (1.5% of current treasury influx). Nevertheless, Encointer is deemed a valuable common good for the Dotsama ecosystem by many reputable individuals and projects in the Dotsama ecosystem.
With this adapted proposal we are budgeting with a 50% lower burn rate and aim to still achieve valuable goals similar to the ones described in the previous proposal on a relaxed timescale.
This proposal to the Polkadot Treasury shall cover our expenses for Sep-Dec 2023 (4mt)
The amount of the proposed spend is CHF 238’000 = USD 270’606 = 59'895 DOT
