Hi everyone!
We noticed that none of the applications submitted passed through the preliminary round of the first batch.
If you have a proposal and need help improving it or want to submit a proposal and would like support in proof reading it or receive feedback please do reach out over here or in TG (same handle as here).
As per the last comments, the decision was to open it up to any ZK tech to be leveraged, particularly for anonymous feedback I’d also like to highlight PLUME which enables this particular use case that can be of interest to the Collective:
Message boards can have persistent anonymous identity, meaning you can post under the same nullifier three times, and everyone will know that all your posts came from the same person, and that the author of the posts is a member of the group eligible to post to the forum, but no one will know that the author is you. Another huge unlock is moderation – anonymous accounts can get banned, and anonymous accounts can accrue persistent reputation.
In the above link you can read through the details of PLUME and you can find the repo here. Just as all of the work produced by the PSE team, PLUME is a public good.
Once again, if anyone is interested/has an idea-experiment they would like to apply with please reach out
