🔥 New Gitcoin site just dropped Why? The funding landscape is fragmented. Lessons aren't being shared. Experiments are happening in isolation. So we built a living reference: the tools, the teams, the research, the results. All in one place. Turning hard-won experience into something everyone can use → gitcoin.co Here's what's on it 👇🧵

The Coasean Singularity framing is especially useful here. When fiat funding fragments under agentic pressure, the question becomes: which allocation infrastructure actually survives the transition? Likely whichever agents can parse. And then a second question: whether the coordination primitives beneath it can produce outcomes we’d recognize as beneficial. We're thinking about this and would love to compare notes along the way 🫡

We need to think seriously about what funding research and social programs means when the debasing of the US dollar collides with a fragmentation of fiat under the pressure of agentic intents. If there’s a new paradigm, then these obvious public goods are perfect frontlines If it were me, I’d be quizzing @cwgoes and @jeffemmett on the matter. I’d also be querying @MIT’s @Peyman_Shahidi @gilirusak @BenSManning et al on the implications of the so-called Coasean Singularity

Biosecurity research terminated. Cybersecurity funding gutted. Climate programs eliminated. Clean energy projects cut. Even where our legacy institutions remain standing, centralized authorities decide what gets studied, funded, and built. Venture capital was never meant to answer this kind of call. But we were. And we think it's time to build better institutions: decentralized, democratic, and designed to accelerate the defense of what matters. That defense won't fund itself. So let's fund it together. 💚

@gitcoin ngl this BioFi concept is kinda interesting... onchain funding shaped by communities could be huge for DeFi innovation. low-interest loans + local currencies? 👀

🌱 BioFi (Bioregional Finance) is what happens when onchain funding infrastructure is shaped by the communities it serves. Bioregional Financing Facilities (BFFs) combine grant pools, venture studios, low-interest loans, and local currencies into modular capital networks designed around watersheds and ecosystems. Some start as a DAO. Others are hosted by a land trust. Many are already creating real impact: → @regen_network is tokenizing ecological state changes across multiple bioregions. → @BioFiProject supported 22 teams in designing BFFs from the Amazon to Appalachia. When capital aligns with ecology, coordination becomes local, legible, and lived. More relational, less extractive. Rooted in place to help regenerate it. Another compelling way to fund what matters 💚

🌱 BioFi Pathfinders Round, Gitcoin Grants 22: we funded 14 bioregional teams around the world through quadratic funding: → $55K matching pool → 1,096 contributions → $8,813 in direct donations But there was an issue: most participants had never used a crypto wallet before. Some, especially in the Global South, struggled with unreliable internet access and electricity. Few had the social media presence to mobilize donors at the breadth that quadratic funding rewards. Even fewer had a network that could readily donate in crypto. We integrated PayPal to make it work. 🤝 And we learned: onchain funding assumes participants can transact onchain, but bioregional teams coordinate through place-based trust for a reason. So, what does onchain funding infrastructure look like for communities who aren’t on crypto twitter?

Perspective from @owocki: 🌎 The nation-state is an awkward container for solving ecological and economic problems. Watersheds don’t respect borders. Food systems don’t care about politics. Climate impacts don’t stop at checkpoints. Increasingly, the most meaningful unit of coordination is the bioregion: places shaped by water, climate, soil, flora, fauna, and the cultures that co-evolved with those constraints. → The Colorado River Basin → The Pacific Northwest → The Great Lakes These are real geographies segmented by political boundaries despite their shared fate. Real in a way that lines on a map are not, because what happens upstream carries downstream. That connection creates the conditions for shared stewardship and shared investment – and for capital, coordination, and collective memory to root in place 🌱 Full piece ↓ gitcoin.co/research/biore…

2,400 years ago, the Mohists built defensive siege engineering manuals and distributed them to every city in China. The theory: if defensive knowledge is free and widely available, aggression becomes uneconomical. Today the @ethereumfndn published the EF Mandate – a thousand-year document that names the Mohists as an intellectual ancestor of Ethereum's purpose: defensive infrastructure that’s open source and available to everyone. The Mandate enshrines CROPS (censorship resistant, open source, private, secure) as non-negotiable properties and reminds us that – while the Ethereum Foundation helps steward a defensive protocol – it's the ecosystem’s responsibility to build defensively on top of it. To do that well, we need to know how to fund the ecosystem sustainably. And the Mohists showed us that this path is best navigated when knowledge is legible, composable, and freely shared 💚👇 🔗 gitcoin.co

@gitcoin these weighting functions are tricky... been heads down building a similar model in Framer using Supabase vector embeddings. gonna open source it soon.

Agentic economy 🤝 public goods funding How we allocate capital is changing. To fund public goods well, we answer tough questions fast: → Which projects deserve investment? → How much impact did they create? → Who contributed what? At scale, these questions can overwhelm human judgment. But agentic solutions are taking shape: → Constraint-first DAO governance → @VitalikButerin's Deep Funding → AI-driven proposal evaluation The opportunities are real. The risks are real too. And the choices we make now determine whether AI serves public goods funding or games it. Full research ↓ 🔗 gitcoin.co/research/ai-ag…

@gitcoin @revnets @juiceboxETH This model is underrated. For non-builders: this is basically “set the rules once so funds move automatically,” instead of waiting on committees every time. Cleaner process, less drama.

🔒 Deploy a treasury once. Fund your project forever. No grants committee, no governance vote, no owners. That's the core claim behind @revnets: autonomous revenue networks built on @juiceboxETH and powered by immutable rules onchain. It's one of the more radical experiments in the funding landscape right now, and it raises a real question: can code do the job we've always needed human judgment to do?

⚡ Research from @owocki, @0xd2_eth, @exeuntdoteth, @omniharmonic: Capitalism is coordination tech that breaks when extraction erodes participation. → Housing priced at 20x median income is good for sellers, until no one can afford to buy → Healthcare built to deny claims is good for insurers, until people drop plans they can’t use → Platforms monetized by user capture are good for investors, until users opt out 🎯 Profit requires participation, which requires coordination. Onchain funding can fill that gap now – and continue to compound as legacy systems erode. Full analysis ↓ 🔗 gitcoin.co/research/the-g…
