Community pool spend prop: Transparency & OCA tools
Hi all, The purpose of this post is to gauge interest in using the community pool to fund the development of On-Chain-Analysis (OCA) tools for IBC chains. Rationale: -There have been multiple instances recently where the people involved in IBC chains have wanted to track the flow of transactions, whether it be rug-pull NFTs, malicious contracts or other unusual transactions. -On Bitcoin and Eth there are many OCA tools that can be used to investigate transaction chains, connected wallets etc. -The only app I could find which provides good functionality, as well as providing a free service, is Breadcrumbs ( https://www.breadcrumbs.app/ , Breadcrumbs App – Medium ) -Governments, some developers, and anyone with a lot of money already have this capability -In effect, having an investigative tooling available cross-IBC and free to use would level the playing field. What’s been done so far: -The idea has been paneled with a few validators to gauge interest. The response has been overwhelmingly positive. -I’ve engaged with breadcrumbs.app dev team, and have been given the following rough guidance: • Cost for Ronin integration is [XXX] a month incl hosting (ie dedicated…

Hey Yaro! Just want to clarify what kind of post this is - I see you’ve titled it ‘Signalling’ but also described it as a Community Pool Spend proposal.
I think what you’re doing here is gathering feedback on a community spend proposal you’d like to make, correct?
Hi Lexa,
That’s exactly what I’m doing - gathering feedback to see if the community here thinks this would be a good proposal to continue work on. My apologies for titling it signalling, I thought it was the most accurate description at the time, but I’ll edit it now to remove the ambiguity.
IMO this is a good idea, and possibly even a candidate for funding from the ICF? Since this is not necessarily a project for the “good of atom”, but is kinda critical for the ecosystem to have. Right?
Hello! I work for breadcrumbs.app and we’re about to send a proposal to support Cosmos. Anyone you know that we can talk to to better understand the node documentation?
Hi @pinkriverbird,
will you open a own thread for a proposal idea or are you going for a grant?
If you have questions about the node documentation i would recommend to join the cosmos discord. There is a channel for node operators. You can also shoot me a dm.
Flo:The grant program was funded by prop 95: “A Grant Program for the Cosmos Hub: Funding the ATOM Accelerator DAO”
