The impact of Grants Stack

What our partners are saying...

Gitcoin's quadratic funding gives the community a voice, with the match aligning more with the number of contributors rather than just the amount funded. Blockchain Association is proud to have been included in multiple advocacy rounds, allowing us to continue to advocate for the industry in Washington, D.C.

Social networks, the pulsing town squares of our digital lives, are public goods at their core. They shape our experiences and foster civic discourse. With Gitcoin's Grants Stack, we're amplifying this truth, enabling self-expression to echo across the digital commons.

From a technical standpoint, the simplicity of the process was astounding. We've observed numerous Quadratic Funding rounds and understand their complexities. Yet, with Grants Stack, all we had to do was click around, input some figures, and everything was set in motion. The potential and power of this tool is undeniable. It's accessible even to those without a developer background; a basic understanding of a web3 Ethereum ct wallet is all you need. This experience has been nothing short of magical for us.
