Quadratic Acceleration: First Light

Giveth is building the next evolution of web3 grants to support builders on Polygon.

Many great projects depend on the Web3 grant ecosystem for funding. Still, there is a principal-agent problem: Desperate for survival, projects cut corners, focus on hitting metrics over creating value, and chase grants from competing ecosystems.

What is the alternative to grant hopping? Tokenization! Tokenization realigns stakeholders and is a foundation for long-term self-reliance with the right supply & demand dynamics. But many small projects struggle to tokenize because:

• They lack the capital to create liquidity 💰

• Trust is hard to come by in crypto 🧐

Quadratic Acceleration (q/acc) solves this. But how?!

1. Our team will select projects & give them $MATIC to launch their own Augmented Bonding Curves.

2. Communities will have the opportunity to support their teams in QF-esque rounds.

3. Donations will mint project tokens for supporters, and the rest will flow to the team.

Quadratic Acceleration aligns incentives for ecosystems, communities, and teams in web3; it’s also the foundation for Gurves. IYKYK 😉

The q/acc protocol resolves the irresolvable because it:

• Frees projects from grant-hopping 🥵

• Realigns teams & ecosystems 🤝

• Launches new economies safely 💸

• Offers built-in liquid tokenization 🌊

We are building q/acc in partnership with General Magic and Inverter Network, based on CommonsStack's research and funded by a generous grant from Polygon. Go deeper:
