Proposal：Polkadot Hackathon 2023 Winter in HongKong
We are currently in the midst of preparations for the Polkadot Hackathon Winter 2023, for which we are requesting $368,499 (90,540 DOT) from the Treasury. 5/6 of the fee is to reward the hackathon winners for their hard work and contribution in this hackathon, and 1/6 of the fee is to reimburse us for the operating expenses of hosting the hackathon.
Current Progress and Comments:
The second proposal brought by OneBlock for their final hackathon in Hong Kong, it’s meant to happen during November 1st 2023 and finish on January 14th 2024 with 300k USD in prizes for the winners. Original link: https://dorahacks.io/zh/hackathon/polkadot-hackathon-2023-winter/detail Archived link: https://archive.ph/ThBwP/ The proposal didn’t get enough unanimous approval, rather, Ivy Network and Chaos DAO opposed the proposal and called many issues on the proposal. Mainly, the lack of impact and results considered the amount spent on such hackathons, lack of information and follow up to the projects winners as well as lack of proper reporting (emphasis ours). Moreover, as of November 23th 2023 and over 600k funded on two proposals, the OneBlock+ identity has not verified their ID on-chain. They seem to be not to responsive to governance through reports or identity.
