HIGHER

we’ve got a few people who would like grants from the higher party and some ETH and $H to give out

any thoughts on how to decide who gets how much?

I don't know how much is available in total, would generally like to see more activity & especially value-add products/initiatives that are built & run for some time. While I don't mind selling some $higher now to fund such things, I believe we could get more $ for $higher in the near future to fund much more contributions.

General Approach:

1️⃣ Fund fun, cool inititiaves for/within the community quickly (-1000$)

2️⃣ Enable existing contributors to put more time into value-add projects/products/initiatives to go from hobbyist to full-time contributors. ($1-10K startup financing with basic application, sth/plan to show for)

3️⃣ Fund potential breakout apps, token use cases, primitives with permissionless economic network effects aggressively - IF launched by committed community members. Less financial support for external stakeholders coming in. Gotta prove sth to unlock more. ($10K+ requires some due diligence, maybe milestones; more applicable if there was $10M+ treasury & funding of $100K+)
