Hypercerts Launches First Community Round on Gitcoin
Hypercerts Launches First Community Round on Gitcoin
馃殌 Hypercerts' Debut Round
Hypercerts, an Ethereum-based protocol for making and funding impact claims, is running its first community round on Gitcoin's grants platform. This marks a significant step towards Hypercerts' goal of building an interconnected funding network. The round aims to attract projects that integrate hypercerts into existing funding platforms, develop new applications built on top of hypercerts, build tooling to extend hypercerts' functionality, and pilot new use cases. Hypercerts has previously piloted its technology with Gitcoin rounds and retroactive funding initiatives, and has created hyperboards to visualize contributions. The roadmap includes releasing hyperboards, launching hypercert marketplaces, integrating with multiple funding platforms, and incorporating evaluation tools.

Battle-Testing Funding Mechanisms in Web3
The evolution of Web3 funding is entering a critical phase where multiple mechanisms are being tested simultaneously in real-world conditions. This approach goes beyond simply selecting funding tools - it's about forging them through practical application. Key points: - Funding mechanisms are being battle-tested in open environments - Multiple tools can work together synergistically - Real-world usage helps harden the entire ecosystem - Focus on practical effectiveness rather than theoretical benefits The goal is to discover which coordination tools truly work through active implementation rather than theoretical discussion. This empirical approach helps strengthen the overall funding infrastructure.
