Gitcoin has announced that users with funds in the Public Goods Network (PGN) must withdraw them by April 20 at 21:00. According to Foresight News, this follows a governance vote earlier this year to transfer remaining PGN fees back to the Gitcoin Foundation treasury. Unclaimed funds will be moved to the foundation's treasury.
PGN ceased operations in October 2024. To ensure users can safely retrieve their assets, Gitcoin has retained and modified the bridge escrow function and deployed the BalanceClaimer contract. This contract allows users to claim funds directly to their Ethereum mainnet addresses even after PGN's complete shutdown.
