This category is home to all Quick Grant (previously Sockets) requests. Each topic post is a request to open a Quick Grant, and includes regular updates and materials from the grantees work.
A Quick Grant request can be opened to support one of the Ambitions of the latest Era. You can read more about Quick Grant mechanisms + expectations here.
For a good example of a Quick Grant, with reporting and community feedback, we like to refer to the POKTNews Socket.
A Quick Grant request must include:
- All grants need to deliver impact:
- Very clearly describe how the Quick Grant supports our 2024 ambitions.
- Define what the expected impact is, to be measured on in the self-reporting.
- Description of your planned work, and any previous work that may be relevent.
- Requested Value of Quick Grant: (note this is set/approved by PNF)
- Trial: $500 for a short trial of something
- Experiment/Initiative: $1-2K, paid and reviewed monthly for the life of the experiment
- Immediate Impact: $2-4k, paid and reviewed monthly for the life of the experiment
- Commitment to “Default to open”.
- Default to open means agreeing to self report progress each month and providing a link to where work will be stored.
Example: “I will work in the open and self report monthly. My work can be viewed at this [github repo] at any time”
- Default to open means agreeing to self report progress each month and providing a link to where work will be stored.
