How FIL-RetroPGF-2 Recipients Can Strengthen the Ecosystem with Drips š§
Congrats to all @FILRetroPGF-2 recipients! This funding isnāt just supportāitās a chance to amplify impact. By using @dripsnetwork, you can redistribute funds to sustain the ecosystem & foster collaboration. Hereās how. š
Why Splitting Funds Matters š§ By allocating a portion of your funds to your team, maintainers, and key dependencies, you help:
ā Sustainability ā Keep essential tools funded and thriving ā Fairness ā Support overlooked but crucial projects ā Resilience ā Strengthen the ecosystem for long-term success ā Collaboration ā Foster a culture of mutual support in FIL & beyond
This approach ensures that funding benefits everyone who contributes to decentralized innovation!
