This is a nice proposal @inezpereira! Note that starting in late January FVM team intends to support a workflow from Web3.storage (i.e., Verifiable Off-chain Data Aggregation) on the coming Hyperspace testnet and it'd be great if your team can help us test that when it's ready as part of this Microgrant.
Hey @eshon! Thank you for your response! We (@joaosantos15 and I) are happy to help!
Hi @inezpereira, this microgrant has been approved! We will send you an email to confirm payment details.
Hi @inezpereira, I hope your project is progressing well! If you have any questions regarding the reporting process for this work, please be in touch. In the meantime, here are some things we are looking for when reviewing FVM Microgrant results:
Happy building!
Hi @inezpereira, can you provide an update on your project progress? Below is a current list of what we look for when determining if a FVM microgrant project is complete:
Please be in touch with any questions!
HI @inezpereira, can you provide an update on your project in this thread?
Hi there @ErinOCon ! Thanks for the ping! We have an open thread with you on the Filecoin Slack workspace 😊
Here are our open questions once more: ⁃ Given the time that has passed since the original implementation, is this a project you are still interested in? Or would you say it has become outdated? ⁃ What are you expectations for this project and do you have any specific expectations when it comes to its contribution to the ecosystem? ⁃ Do you have any recommendations in terms of deployment? How stable are the APIs, currently?
Happy to discuss here or on Slack. Any news from the FVM team?
Hi @inezpereira!
You have a few options, but overall we're NOT so interested in dapps that try to implement basic DAO functionality, like creating a fund, admin for users to vote and control that fund, etc. This is all well-developed territory by many open source DAO projects.
We're more interested in teams that can explore interesting use cases for FEVM / Filecoin and have a high chance of becoming nice, user-friendly dapps that people will want to use.
While the overall idea of backing up Github repos using a DAO is a good, your demo focuses a lot on trying to raise funding for this which may not be that compelling for users to contribute to.
We do have another project your team could work on for the remaining $4k tranche however that would be very useful to the Filecoin developer community...
We'd like to update https://datasets.filecoin.io/ to focus on much smaller datasets that can be stored on Calibration testnet (where there's 1 SP currently accepting smaller deals) for Filecoin developers to use during hackathons.
We can do this in phases, like start a spreadsheet of datasets that can be found online, get help from Filecoin teams to determine if they'd make for nice demos, then once we have a good list your team can work on getting them stored on Calibration and update the site with all info.
Let me know if this project would interest your team.
@inezpereira - Any update? Otherwise we can give this project to another team. Please let us know.
Hi @eshon!
Thank you very much for your response and apologies for the time it took us to respond! We're genuinely excited about the vision you've laid out for enhancing https://datasets.filecoin.io/. It's a crucial initiative, and we can see how it would benefit the Filecoin developer community.
That being said, after some internal discussions, we believe that handing this project off to another team would be the best course of action. Due to our ongoing commitments, we won't be able to give this the time and focus it deserves, at least for the next six months.
We're really excited about seeing what another dedicated team will accomplish with this. We're still committed to contributing to the Filecoin ecosystem and will be eagerly following the project's progress. Of course, if it helps, we'll be available for any meetings or sharing insights if the new team needs a springboard for their work.
Thanks again for your work! We're looking forward to seeing this project evolve!
All the best,
Inês, João and Vicente
Hi @inezpereira, thank you for your response. Since this project is now closed, we will cease future grant payments.

1. What is your project, and what problem does it solve?
We believe that code, like data, should be preserved in a censorship-resistant way. GlacierDAO is a Data DAO that specifically preserves code as a public good. This is done by storing repositories on the Filecoin network.
2. Project links
3. How is IPFS, Filecoin, or related technology used in this project?
GlacierDAO aims to solve the problem of source code preservation. Our vision is to build a DAO that:
Technical limitations As of December 10th 2022, there are technical constraints which prevent this vision from being fully implemented. These limitations are:
For that reason, the GlacierDAO team proposes a phased approach to development:
4. How will you improve your project with this grant? What steps will you take to meet this objective?
See above for detailed roadmap. The current grant would allow us to deploy a fully functioning MVP.
5. Do you agree to share grant reports upon request, including a final grant report at the end of the three month period?
Yes.
6. Does your proposal comply with our Community Code of Conduct?
Yes.
7. Links and submissions
