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.

red·bridge Launch
Approved async
Applicant requests funding to complete final-phase work on a decentralized, community-owned bridge for moving ZEC into and out of the broader DeFi ecosystem — covering marketing/launch, Swiss legal compliance and entity operations, and continued stewardship of Webzjs (including its MetaMask Snap), building on prior funding from ZCG, the Avalanche Foundation, and the founder. Requesting $477,658. Artkor: This grant allows the team to finish the work already started with red-bridge and move it from the software-building stage into the launch stage. In addition, the team is taking on maintenance of the MetaMask Snap and the supporting WebZjs library, which are directly relevant to red·bridge operations and useful infrastructure for the broader ecosystem. After some revisions to the structure, we approved it on Friday. Hanh: We approved because this is the last effort before releasing this major endeavor. We asked the grantee to move the funding that was made monthly into milestones and turn it into an independent contractor agreement. So this will be heavily tied to delivery. We are not going to pay that much unless the grantee delivers on everything that was listed here. This may sound like a lot, but there’s a lot of content in there. And this is essentially a max amount. Zerodartz: The grant seems really big at first but there are a lot of parts to it and one of the main problems we had in the last year was the Metamask Snap and the WebZjs maintenance which was slower fixing bugs than would be ideal. Recently Red Bridge team came in and asked to help with some of that work and they have already fixed some stuff and they’re now taking over the maintenance of it. Also the red bridge is a good alternative for Near Intents in the future when it launches and I’m excited to see it in action soon. Paul: I am in favor of giving this team the resources necessary to get this work to the finish line. DeFi capabilities have proven incredibly important for Zcash over the last year, and we need more as fast as possible.
