@platohedro love the idea of "impact staking". just to clarify the funding is $250/mo for 5 months, 100 of which is earmarked for an artist. Who is the earliest staking partner you have a verbal or written commitment from, and for roughly how much? Why focus on these 2 chains and not something like Base where more capital is locked up? What happens if staking yields drop significantly - do you have a minimum threshold where the model breaks? how much capital do you need locked up front to fund the minimum viable batch of impact makers?

We’re currently in early-stage conversations about a potential staking pool of $25K–$50K USD, but it would still need to go through Astar's governance process. That said, it’s an encouraging first step. As for the minimum viable staking amount: we’re still modeling different scenarios internally, so I don’t have a definitive number just yet. But we believe a pilot could be launched with that same $25K–$50K range, allowing us to onboard a small cohort and begin testing the flow. Of course, scaling it into something regenerative and community-led would take much more — for now, we’re just planting the seeds. We know this project has potential, but we also recognize that it needs support — both technical and strategic — to move through its next phases. We’re wide open to feedback, collaboration, and learning as we build. Thanks again for the thoughtful engagement — we’d love to keep the conversation going.

Thank you for the thoughtful questions, Rocketman — and for the clarification on the $250/month. I also want to be transparent: I made a few mistakes in the initial application, but I've updated it with corrections and hope it reads better now. Regarding the $100 earmarked for the artist — we actually weren’t fully aware of that detail, so we’d love to learn more. From our side, we were thinking of using the $250/month primarily to support onboarding and early coordination, which the project still requires. We're definitely open to supporting more chains, and Base is absolutely possible to integrate. In fact, we’d be thrilled to collaborate with the Base ecosystem to make that happen. The reason we initially built on Astar and Soneium is simply because we developed the MVP during the ETH Cinco de Mayo hackathon, which has a track focused on those chains.
