FPF source evidence

Milestone and disbursement ledger

Read-only milestone and disbursement fields normalized from the FPF grants ledger.

These ledger rows are FPF source evidence. They do not by themselves prove that a progress update was accepted, a payment request was approved, or an on-chain settlement was completed. Named rows can also describe reimbursements, returned funds, or other ledger adjustments.

No normalized FPF milestone or disbursement rows are linked to this application yet. The application and its other source evidence remain available below.

TIBA proposes a three-month Zcash education and community activation program across Nigeria, delivering monthly physical meetups, developer workshops, X-Space discussions, and social media content to an existing audience of 500+ trained builders and 2,000+ community members, with the goal of introducing shielded transaction concepts and building a Zcash-aware developer pipeline on the continent. Requesting $12,600. Artkor: Given the growing availability of specialized AI tools for programmers and broader self-direction learning, I no longer believe there is a strong need for programs of this kind. Anyone who has genuine interest can now learn independently and even make their first steps in programming with these tools, which is exactly what we have already seen. So I reject this proposal. Zerodartz: This team seems new to Zcash and I would like to see them start with small contributions if they are interested in working on future community education projects. Decentralistdan: agreed, I would like to see this team contribute to the ecosystem before approving a proposal

Typically that's because you need to clear your cache or use another browser. Try those and see if it works.
