**Ordum Proposal Summary**

- **Purpose**: To create a public good grants aggregator for Polkadot and Kusama ecosystems.
- **Problem**: Current grant management tools (like Gitcoin) are insufficient, leading to scattered information and funding inefficiencies.
- **Solution**: Develop a decentralized app (dapp) to index and manage grants, including tracking milestones and integrating with GitHub.
- **Features**: 
  - Custom APIs for tracking proposals.
  - Integration with GitHub for non-treasury grants.
  - Light clients for quick data retrieval.
  - Login with multiple DID services, GitHub, and wallets.
- **NFT Certificates**: Mint non-transferable NFTs as certificates for completed milestones, stored on Crust.
- **Transparency**: Display milestones, grant applications, and funding on team profiles.
- **Funding**: Requested $78,804 or 2770 KSM.

Ordum proposes to build a public goods grant aggregator for Polkadot and Kusama ecosystems. The solution includes a dapp containing all grants, NFTs as "certificates" for completed milestones, and a front-end displaying funding amounts and certificates within a roadmap. The requested funding is 78,804 USD or 2770 KSM.

[Resubmission proposal 4] Treasury Proposal: Ordum | Public Good Grants Aggregator for Polkadot and Kusama

- InvArch Network is creating a new multi-signature solution called Saturn for the Dotsama ecosystem.
- Saturn will work on all parachains and can be used by any dApp on those parachains.
- It will be easy for existing wallets to adopt Saturn.
- Saturn aims to be better than other solutions like Gnosis Safe.
- Current multi-signature options are limited or hard to create.
- Saturn will allow account recovery and adding/removing members easily.
- It will be open-source and usable with KSM, not requiring TNKR.
- The team believes Saturn will greatly improve the multi-sig experience in Web3.

InvArch Network team proposes to build an open-source multi-signature solution named Saturn, available to every parachain & dApp on those parachains. The solution will be easily adopted by existing wallets in the ecosystem, providing a superior multi-signature solution to the Dotsama ecosystem compared to external solutions such as Gnosis Safe. The proposal is designed to service the entirety of Kusama & its parachains, and the cost breakdown can be found in the provided link.

### Ordum: Public Good Grants Aggregator

- **Purpose**: Ordum aims to create a public good grants aggregator for the Polkadot and Kusama ecosystems, focusing on R&D funding.
- **Current Issue**: Existing grant management tools like Gitcoin are insufficient for the needs of web3 ecosystems, leading to scattered information and difficulties in tracking funding.
- **Problem**: Treasuries and foundations have excess funds due to a lack of projects, and grant information is hard to find and manage.
- **Solution**: Ordum proposes a decentralized application (dapp) to index and manage grants, including features like custom APIs, light clients, and integration with Github.
- **Milestone Certificates**: Non-transferable NFTs will be minted to certify completed milestones, enhancing transparency and accountability.
- **Transparency**: Grant applications, funding, and milestones will be displayed on team profiles for public viewing.
- **User Experience**: Surveys and feedback will be used to optimize the UX for managing treasury grants.
- **Funding Request**: Ordum seeks $78,804 for development, with a Kusama rate of 25.24 as of November 24, 2022.

Ordum proposes to build a public goods grant aggregator for the Polkadot and Kusama ecosystems to solve the scattered information and lack of software for managing grants. They plan to create a dapp, mint non-transferable NFTs, display milestones and funding on a team's profile, and issue surveys for optimal grant management. They request funding of 78,804 USD and aim to deliver a V1 POC of the aggregator.
