AEZ QF (ATOM Economic Zone Quadratic Funding) initiated by Dora Factory has completed anti-sybil attack detection on March 7, and announced the first round of funding allocation results on DoraHacks.io. The selected Eight Cosmos ecological public goods projects share a quadratic funding pool of approximately 5,000 ATOM. The first round of quadratic funding attracted 120 donors from the Cosmos community, and received a total of nearly 530 ATOM from the community. After the first round of QF cycle ends, community donors can still participate in supporting the selected projects, and these donations will also be included in the next round of QF, affecting the distribution of the next round of QF fund pool.
The focus of AEZ QF’s funding is on long-term support for the construction of early public goods and appchains in the Cosmos ecosystem. Starting from ecological infrastructure, we will work with developers to build a more stable and growing Cosmos ecosystem. . Since the application opening, AEZ QF has received a wide range of project submissions from Cosmos ecosystem builders. The first round of funding selected 8 public goods projects, covering many important areas such as SDK/middleware/tool sets, media, Defi, and NFT protocols. In the next funding rounds, more public goods and application chain projects will be selected. For details of the selected projects, please see: https://dorahacks.io/aez
The eight projects selected for funding in the first round are:
InterChain NFT Gateway (ICS721) – The Cosmos ecological multi-chain NFT interactive interface developed by the Ark Protocol team enhances users’ ability to effectively manage their NFT investment portfolios.
Abstract SDK – CosmWasm modular cross-chain application framework and on-chain infrastructure.
CosmWasm Orchestrator – Universal tool for CosmWasm testing, scripting and deployment.
CW-Interchain Accounts Controller – a pure CosmWasm implementation of ICS-27, bypassing the limitations of Go API and regulating users’ transactions in various IBC chains (even those that do not support Wasm chain) account.
Packet Forward Middleware – Developed by StrangeLove Crypto, middleware that simplifies multi-chain connections through efficient multi-hop IBC routing.
The Rollup – a blockchain media, podcast and education platform focusing on the Cosmos ecosystem.
Pouch – a cross-chain fund custody protocol that provides supplementary security for existing wallets.
Fairblock Network – integrates multiple cryptography mechanisms to implement programmable privacy protocols and conditional decryption, enabling all Cosmos chains and second-layer networks to implement modules ized and programmable privacy.
AEZ QF has introduced important tools for ecological governance and public goods funding into the Cosmos ecosystem. Different from institutional-led funding behaviors, Cosmos’ native quadratic funding brings more community donors to the project, and all funding behaviors and fund allocation mechanisms are managed by on-chain contracts, ensuring the transparency and fairness of the entire process. sex. Dora Vota, the underlying facility of the AEZ QF protocol, is a blockchain developed by Dora Factory and specifically used for decentralized community governance. Vota introduces the native quadratic funding mechanism to Cosmos and its application chain ecosystem for the first time. At the same time, based on the strong compatibility of Dora Vota, AEZ QF can theoretically support any IBC token for donation (ATOM was given priority in the first round of funding), allowing a wider range of Cosmos community members to participate in building Cosmos ecological public goods and application chains.
As the first long-term quadratic funding project in the Cosmos ecosystem, AEZ QF has long-term access to grant applications and community donations, and regularly provides a quadratic fund pool to provide additional funding for selected projects.
