Treasury OpenGov Proposal - Medium Spender Track
Project: Interactive PAPI Console - Developer Experience Platform
Team: aipop.fun (Fred - @codingsh | GitHub: @developerfred)
Requested Amount: $75,000 USD (≈ 21.92K DOT)
Track: Medium Spender
Duration: 10 weeks
Immediate Payment: $15,000 (marketing + infrastructure)
Platform: https://papi-simulator.aipop.fun
Code: https://github.com/developerfred/papi-simulator
Facts:
Polkadot Hub arrives Q3 2025. Ethereum developers need to migrate. Where are the tools?
| PAPI Simulator | Substrate Playground | Polkadot-JS | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Focus | Visual UX for PAPI | Substrate learning | Advanced tooling |
| Target | Web2→Web3 migration | Substrate learners | Expert users |
| Approach | Complementary + UI layer | Educational focus | Technical interface |
| Templates | ✅ Community library | ❌ Basic examples | ❌ None |
Positioning: We build on top of existing tools, we don't compete.
Result: Platform online, active users, positive feedback.
Why immediate payment? Polkadot Hub Q3 2025 = critical marketing window.
Ecosystem Investment:
Our proposal complements existing investments:
Allocation:
Treasury ROI: Complementary tools maximize impact of previous investments.
Quality: Code reviews, community testing, security audits.
Fast Grants Curators (Already Supporting PAPI Simulator):
Future Strategic Partnerships:
6 months:
Impact:
Web3 only wins when developers build apps that real users adopt.
Polkadot has the best technology. The tools are missing.
PAPI Console solves this. Now.
Investment: $75,000 (0.3% of annual dev budget)
Timeline: 10 weeks
Risk: Very low (proven track record)
Upside: Developer experience that actually works
🗳️ YES for tools developers will actually use
🗳️ YES for Polkadot Hub success
🗳️ YES for a more accessible ecosystem
"The future of Web3 will be built by developers creating solutions that real users will utilize. Let's give them the tools to make it happen."
