Hey all, stopping by to share the Protocol Guild, which we've been working on for a few months now. been so swamped i never got to post it here!

→ Announcement post (Dec 31)

This is a new public goods funding mechanism by Stateful Works: a split contract which distributes donated application tokens over a vesting period to a self-curated list of Ethereum protocol contributors. The primary goals: to provide autonomous tools for recruitment, retention, and reward to the protocol and its maintainers. If desired, individuals can forward their allocation to a charity.

“And, Ebling, there’s another, greater purpose. Hari Seldon founded two Foundations three centuries ago; one at each end of the Galaxy. You must find that Second Foundation.” Foundation, Isaac Asimov

Looking forward to hearing your feedback, and hopefully future support in getting the message out, connections to potential sponsors. We're still onboarding potential members (up to ~60 now), but momentum is strong!
