Who

selsta, I have been contributing to monero since around 2018 with over 628 merged commits. Here is a list of my previous work:

• CLI contributions: https://github.com/monero-project/monero/pulls?q=is%3Apr+author%3Aselsta

If funded I will provide monthly updates in the CCS comment section.

Proposal

Work for 30 hours per week over the next 3 months (from May to end of July) at a rate of 45€ / hour. At 138.5€ / XMR this makes 117 XMR.
