Updates!
DeVouch was actively promoted and used for Retro Funding 4, 5 & 6
You can see the activity on DeVouch for these rounds here: https://devouch.xyz/?source=rf4&source=rf5&source=rf6
We created a tweet for every project that was in each round to bring awareness to the wider community to capture the wisdom of the crowd.
There was a fair amount of organic engagement:
All projects that applied were imported before the reviewers were done reviewing projects and any projects that were removed from the round were also removed from DeVouch.
DeVouch was used by the Badgeholders during the round to get a sense of legitimacy for projects, and was linked to in Pairwise, which was official tooling in RF5 and RF6.
We received feedback from Jonas that the flagging feature was especially useful to the RF Review process, allowing the crowd to signal if there were projects that were not deserving of Retro Funding. We excitedly await RF7 to see how DeVouch can support further!
