2022-Q3 Community Curated Bounty List (CCBL)

The previous iteration of the Community Curated Bounty List was approved in proposal 71.

Main changes:

• Increased the maximum SCRT budget to 25k SCRT
• Added four new projects and removed the two that have already been completed
• Increased leniency for individual devs with regards to the 1 month boundary condition

Introduction

The Community Curated Bounty List (CCBL) is meant to serve as a think tank, an accelerator, and a community landing place for network-wide needs and ideas that could be funded by the community pool. Specifically, one of the primary functions of the CCBL is to create a list of on-chain approved ideas. This allows someone with an idea, but no desire/skill to execute, to share their idea broadly. While developers who are looking to focus on building can select from pre-approved ideas. All they have to do is to prove their ability to execute. The CCBL is not intended to slow down or stop the process of anyone going directly on-chain. Rather, the CCBL aims to be the friendliest possible place to propose ideas that could get funded in the future by the CCBL. Community members are encouraged to submit ideas to the CCBL. The more well thought out the ideas (and creative), the better! People who approach the CCBL will have the opportunity to get connected to individuals who are happy to help push the idea forward, refine it, and turn it into something that the on-chain community pool would be willing to fund assuming the right entity stepped up to build/execute on it. At the end of the day, the CCBL is a growth initiative focused on lowering the barrier of entry for getting entities funded to do great work for the larger Secret Network community! Before every Validator Survey new submissions will be vetted in a public CCBL Working Group meeting to make sure the ideas conform to the current boundary conditions as agreed to by the validators. The Validator Survey which will determine eventual inclusion in the on-chain proposal is currently sent out every 3 months.

Boundary Conditions

Requirements

• Projects that can have their results (or a proof-of-concept) available within a month of full-time development. In the case of an individual developer there is some leniency.
• No projects that are already in active development.
• Projects need to be specific, so not just 'a casino'.

Spends Both an upper limit of 25,000 SCRT and 100,000 USD is set for the project spends, whichever limit is hit first stands as the upper limit. Thereby the CCBL is less exposed to potential differences in the valuation of SCRT.

Included Projects

Previously included projects that are still open:

• A SCRT faucet that will use the fee-grant module that will be included with the IBC upgrade
• Secret bet: a decentralized, permissionless, and privacy-preserving betting place where you can set up a bet with your friends or even bet on your favorite basketball or football team (This project is likely to be subject to increased local regulation, please ensure research into local laws and regulations)
• A secret NFT project where you can store identification documents as secret NFTs that only you can see and that you can show to people on request with a temporary viewing key
• A bridge with the Solana ecosystem
• Secret insurance with on-chain implementation of ensuring different events inside the secret ecosystem that could be checked via oracles or smart-contracts

New projects:

• A domain name service (similar to ENS) with privacy functionality, and potentially using the domain as a web3 identity
• An interface to view and create viewing keys in batches
• A peer to peer NFT trading platform, including escrow functionality
• A crowdfunding platform
