A) Small Grants update

B) Public Goods projects highlights:

ChainSafe

  • Belma and Jagrut from chainsafe presented
  • Improving security around ENS addresses. From their Ethereum Foundation proposal, β€œWhat we are trying to achieve is to find a way to potentially publish an ENS name, and allow people to send to it, without revealing the main address.” The idea is to be able to transact with ENS addresses but not publicly reveal the assets behind the address.
  • It was recommended that Chainsafe request a DAO-wide proposal or from the working group if they would like funding support.

Wildfire

  • Chidi gave an intro on Wildfire DAO. More information can be found on their mirror blog.

C) Reserved for additional topics.

  • ENSpunks asked about grants directly from the DAO to onboard high-profile athletes.

I’m really stoked about Chainsafe. Privacy is a huge priority for Web 3 infra in order to secure an agentic future.

Leaving this for historical note: one of the negatives against the chain safe proposal was that a similar solution already exists: umbra.cash

So they decided to take a broader look at the existing solutions before updating their proposal.
