Retroactive Public Goods Funding

Protocolo Monetário Descentralizado

A mechanism design protocol for allocating funds to public goods based on demonstrated past impact rather than prospective grant proposals. A community of badge-holders evaluates contributions retrospectively and votes on allocations from a designated funding pool. Prototype: Optimism RetroPGF (Retroactive Public Goods Funding) rounds.
