No. of proposals

Applicants may only lead or co-propose a maximum of 5 catalyst proposals across all categories. If more than 5 are submitted, only the first 5 published entries will be eligible for funding and the remainder will be archived.

Active projects

No active projects should be outstanding from F7 or prior in order to be eligible to apply for F11 funding. Any such outstanding projects must be successfully completed/closed out before the start of the Community Review stage in F11.

Track record

Lead proposers and co-proposers with 5 or more active projects funded in F8 or later must have a track record of submitting at least 3 monthly reports in the 6 months preceding submission of a proposal under F11.

Leftovers

Leftover funding logic will exclude the Product track in Cardano Use Cases and both Catalyst System Improvements to focus on grass-roots innovation.

Voting

For all categories, voting in F11 will be a Yes/Abstain mechanic, removing downvoting altogether
