 If you’re more of a cross-chain enthusiast (πŸ˜€), the foundation also submitted a profile for the latest Gitcoin round, which has about a week to go. Maybe someday Gitcoin can also accept bitcoin, considering the name similarity? https://explorer.gitcoin.co/#/round/424/0x98720dd1925d34a2453ebc1f91c9d48e7e89ec29/0x98720dd1925d34a2453ebc1f91c9d48e7e89ec29-159 And if you missed it, we had a community call last week to introduce the foundation - why it exists, what the goals are, how it is set up, how it relates to the community, and much more. Big thanks again to the first donors.
