Our team just finished a big project that cost 250,000 and we almost ran out of money. We think we should always have at least 500,000 to make sure we can keep working on marketing.

So, we need to have some extra money saved up. We are asking for 500,000 more. You can see all our spending and work at this link: https://bit.ly/m/reports

Token Terminal and Parity Data have proposed a plan to integrate Polkadot's ecosystem data into Token Terminal's product suite. This will allow Polkadot data to be shared directly with major partners like Bloomberg, MarketVector, and Coinbase SMA, giving Polkadot more exposure to institutional investors. Here are the main points:

1. Token Terminal will create a data pipeline for Polkadot, which is needed for their partnerships with Bloomberg and MarketVector.
2. This will let Polkadot's data be shared with Bloomberg and make DOT eligible for MarketVector indexes, which will be shown on Coinbase SMA platform.
3. Token Terminal already covers data for 16 other blockchain networks.
4. Parity Data will help with data integration by providing expertise and access to important information.
5. The plan will include data from all active Polkadot parachains and create a unified dataset on Token Terminal's web platform.
6. Polkadot's data will be available on all of Token Terminal's data products and channels, including the Bloomberg Terminal.
7. There will be a research article and podcast episode about Polkadot's data and ecosystem.
8. DOT will be eligible for Token Terminal-powered cryptoasset indexes.
9. The Parity team will have access to Token Terminal's data products to check the integrated data.
10. Parachains will get more exposure to investors and decision-makers through unbiased metrics.
11. The partnership will last for 16 months and cover integration and maintenance.

This integration will help Polkadot be more visible in the global blockchain analytics space and reach a wider audience of investors and decision-makers.

Token Terminal proposes to integrate Polkadot's ecosystem data into its product suite, enabling direct data sharing with major partners such as Bloomberg, MarketVector, and Coinbase SMA. The proposal requests 171,827 DOT for a 16-month integration and maintenance period. The initiative will integrate data across all active Polkadot parachains, establish a parachain price feed, and make Polkadot's data available across all of Token Terminal's data products and channels. Polkadot's native token DOT would become eligible for Token Terminal-powered cryptoasset indexes. The partnership will span 16 months covering integration and maintenance.

A request has been made to refill the marketing bounty number #33 with 250k DOT. The previous refill of 100k was almost spent before the spending period ended, which could have led to no funds for marketing for a month. To avoid such situations, especially with the uncertainty introduced by DV, it is important to have several months' worth of spending in reserve. Bounty #41 will be abandoned, and an amendment will be made to bounty #33 with this specific referendum. The purpose of this bounty is to support marketing for Polkadot without specific rules or restrictions. The only rule is that if a curator is involved in a proposal, they must abstain from voting. All reports regarding expenses and deliveries will be available at the provided link.

Transistor Polkadot North America, LLC has proposed a plan to create a community workspace in New York City for Polkadot teams. The goal is to establish a physical brand presence, drive Polkadot adoption in North America, and nurture a cohesive community. The workspace will be used for:

1. Hosting multichain meetups to attract developers, entrepreneurs, and investors.
2. Developing relationships to win enterprise and startup client business.
3. Building and promoting products to advance Polkadot.

The proposal requests $2,105,000 (approximately 300K DOT) to lease and run the workspace for at least three years. The funds will cover rent, security deposit, utilities, and maintenance. The workspace will be crucial for Polkadot's adoption, as many competitors have a strong physical presence in key tech and finance hubs.

Transistor is a U.S.-based blockchain research and business development firm that aims to reintroduce Polkadot to U.S. enterprise, startup, and investor communities. The workspace will serve as Transistor's headquarters and support high-productivity work within the team.

The proposal highlights the importance of a physical workspace for building strong business relationships and competing with other crypto projects. It also emphasizes the urgency of securing a space in New York City, as commercial rent prices are expected to rise soon.

This proposal is about helping Polkadot's DeFi ecosystem grow by fixing two big problems: not having enough infrastructure and tooling. Infrastructure is like the foundation that supports the whole system, and tooling are the tools people use to build and use the system. 

Right now, it's hard for new teams and users to join Polkadot because it's not easy to get the money and tools they need. Also, teams are not sure how to get money for their ideas, and sometimes they don't fix the right problems. 

The people who made this proposal want to bring in more builders and infrastructure providers by creating a group of experts. This group will give clear instructions on what to build, check if the work is done well, and give money from the treasury if the work is successful. 

The group will be made up of people from different teams, like Velocity Labs, Moonbeam, Acala, and more. They will help make sure the right things get built and the money is spent in the right way. 

You can read the full proposal by clicking on this link: [Full Proposal](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1RdP1We3jkQeDy0HlA2T_n8whaeGbLZnuSYxPoJ7XLfw/edit).

WHO: Velocity Labs and other Polkadot builders.

WHAT: Establish mechanisms and incentive structures to streamline the development and integration of key missing pieces in Polkadot's DeFi ecosystem through Request for Proposals (RFPs).

PRICE/TIMEFRAME/RESOURCES: Retroactive funding from the treasury upon successful delivery. No specific details provided.
