Matching Pool DAI contributions withdrawn to ‘Layer 1.’
Matching Pool DAI sent to ensdaonews.eth wallet.
And that’s the last of all of the contributions transferred to the ensdaonews.eth wallet. Thank you so much again to all that contributed. We look forward to funding and featuring great talent soon.

With the exception of Polygon, and the $500 DAI Gitcoin matching funds, all contributions have been sent to the ensdaonews.eth wallet. I will continue to provide updates when I am able to send the matching funds.
Thank you so much to everyone again for the kind contributions!
Here is a bonus counterfeit POAP. I wanted to give it for early supporters, but it never got approved by their team. Feel free to right-click save it if you want.

The matching fund amount been announced, and it is $500.47! (DAI)
While I wait for the matching pool funds to be disbursed, I have started the process of sending the rest of the contributions to the ensdaonews.eth wallet. I am leaving the Polygon funds in Polygon until it becomes financially reasonable to withdraw them to Layer 1. Currently it costs about $30 in gas per withdrawal, which is more than the amounts to be withdrawn.

In response to recent security vulnerabilities and continuing exploits I have decided to go ahead and transfer the DAI contributions from my personal wallet to the ensdaonews.eth wallet.
My original plan was to wait for the matching funds to be disbursed before transferring any contributions so I could do it in fewer transactions, but after seeing the recent cybersecurity news I am taking this first step early so there isn’t a single point of failure in the event my personal wallet is compromised.
I will transfer the rest of the contributions after the GR13 matching pool has been disbursed and provide details here.

Our Gitcoin Grant for the GR13 & ENS Ecosystem matching round has come to a close, and we are extremely grateful for the tremendous support and encouragement we received from the community! As this is my first experience with Gitcoin, I will be providing updates to the community and expanding upon the grant process as I receive more information.
In an effort to provide maximum transparency, I have kept a record of each contribution made during the matching round. This record does not include any funds from matching pools, as the final amount isn’t known at this time.
Also, the discrepancy between my record and what is reflected on the grant page is due to additional contributions made outside of Gitcoin or made anonymously - therefore my total is higher.
After all funds have been distributed, I will transfer them to the ensdaonews.eth wallet, which is to be used exclusively for newsletter improvements, operations, and related compensation. This will require several transfers from my personal wallet - on layer 1, zkSync, and Polygon - and I will provide detailed documentation of the process in an update.
Now, on to the statistics…
