Keep an eye out for CardanOx’s Project Catalyst Introduction and Co-working sessions! These are great ways to start exploring 😊
Project Catalyst is a series of experiments which seeks to generate the highest levels of community innovation. Catalyst is bringing on-chain governance to the Cardano blockchain by allowing the community to self-determine priorities for growth. It also lets participants deploy funding to proposals which tackle challenges and capitalize on opportunities that arise in the life cycle of Cardano.
To do this, Project Catalyst is divided into a series of funds which are deployed every six weeks. These funds will illicit ideas in the form of proposals from participants. Each proposal will focus around a challenge issued by the Project Catalyst team or the Project Catalyst community. The proposals will then go through a community refinement process where they are vetted for feasibility, auditability, and impact by a group of incentivized proposal assessors. Once the proposals have been finalized they will be voted on by the community and funds will be distributed in the form of ADA to winning projects. Each stage of this process is described in greater detail throughout this document.
