Analysis Breakdown
Projects eligible for funding were those actively building public goods with teams of 5 of less. To participate, projects needed to get “verified” on Giveth, and the provide additional information through a form. The ENS public goods WG reviewed the final submissions and selected the final list of projects to participate in the round. The purpose of this round was to support for public goods builders, ensuring funding going to small, impactful initiatives.
Only donations from addresses with a Gitcoin passport score of 5 or more, with a value of $0.90 USD or more, were considered eligible for matching. Recirculated donations (funds that went from donor to project & back, or project to donor & back) were disqualified, as were donations found to be part of sybil attacks (h/t to Trustalabs who supported us in the data processing).

The ENS Builders Round has been a great success, thanks to the dedication and generosity of the community. We sincerely thank all donors and participants who made this round possible.
