+
+*WHO* My name is Brandon Goodell. I am Monero Research Lab’s first postdoctoral researcher into cryptocurrency. I have a Ph.D. in Mathematical Sciences from Clemson University, a M.Sc. in Mathematics from North Dakota State University, and a B.S. in Mathematics from Colorado State University. I taught as a graduate student for 9 years at the university level, and I have participated in the Monero community under the pseudonym Surae Noether on-and-off 2014-2016, and I have worked at MRL full-time since June 2017.
+
+*WHAT* I am requesting a continuation of funding for November and December 2019, and January 2020. In the past quarter (or so) MRL has proven CLSAG and DLSAG signatures secure (allowing for a more efficient blockchain and allowing for claim-or-refund approaches in multiparty computation) and submitted these papers for peer review through the Financial Cryptography 2020 conference, started preparation on submitting the thring signature paper for peer review, and developed a quantifiable approach to assessing privacy-based ledgers (the so-called Matching simulations). Sarang has also been all over analysis of four major possible replacements for ring signatures that are sublinearly sized, and I've begun assisting with some security proofs on one of these novel approaches called Triptych, first invented/proposed by randomrun [here](https://github.com/monero-project/research-lab/issues/56) and fleshed out by Sarang; this proposal is rather tailor-fit for applications in Monero. The quarter before that, MRL hosted the first Monero Konferenco, which was a smashing success in terms of content.
+
+*WHY* Monero Research Lab has communicated with researchers all over the cryptocurrency industry, cryptographers, computer scientists, and computer engineers. In the past year, we have traveled internationally to conferences to learn and participate in the dissemination of results, contributed to several published technical notes/white papers on the technology underlying Monero, helped read and review papers for other researchers, participated in the cryptocurrency community more broadly, even hosted the first annual Monero Konferenco. Our measurable results include concrete suggestions for mitigating side channel de-anonymization vulnerabilities with subaddresses (see e.g. [here](https://web.getmonero.org/2019/10/18/subaddress-janus.html)) and significant reductions to blockchain sizes when CLSAG 
+
+*RATES AND AMOUNTS* My rate is based on the 14-day moving average exponential on Kraken from 1 November 2019, which is approximately 62.50 USD per XMR, and my monthly rate of 10,400 USD per month.
+
+*PAYOUTS AND MILESTONES* Research funding over many months suffers from price volatility. Neither donors nor researchers at MRL know the value of donations when they are eventually paid out. To mitigate this and provide the most stability, this request will be paid out in full when it is funded; MRL has a track record of continuously performing in exchange for our funding, and we feel this funding approach makes sense for sustained research.
+
+*EXPIRATION* If, for some reason, this proposal is not funded, I'd like to specify that any funding is set aside for funding future MRL proposals, whether by Sarang, myself, or any other contributors.
+
+Thank you, Monero Community! We at MRL strongly value community input into the funding process, and welcome discussions regarding my funding proposal. Thank you again to the entire community, whether you've donated to me or not… you guys are absolutely running the show, and you all kick some major butt. I hope by making Monero better, we're all a little better off.

+
+# Who
+
+I am [SyntheticBird](https://github.com/SyntheticBird45), Cuprate contributor.
+
+# What
+
+Cuprate is currently in alpha version and a lot of features are planned on the roadmap up to beta phase. One of the features present on this roadmap, and that was [originally presented when announcing Cuprate](https://github.com/Cuprate/cuprate/blob/fc9b077d946fe8b7746c45ae8b299a87b2014cbf/readme.md?plain=1#L57), is native support for Tor network. This CCS proposal intend to fulfill this milestone.
+
+I will work for an estimated 2 months, from April to end of May, on Cuprate with the goal of implementing native Tor support into `cuprated` through the `arti-client` crate and other miscellaneous improvements.
+At the end of this CCS, testers will be able to:
+- Bootstrap Tor network within Cuprate or use Tor system daemon.
+- Use Tor for outbound clearnet connections.
+- Natively connect to onion monero nodes.
+- Generate an onion service for accepting inbound Tor connections.
+
+# Tasks
+
+The planned set of tasks to complete can be found at this Github gist: https://gist.github.com/SyntheticBird45/4c554d3c1e7ae6f8d237d7dd49c2d2f0
+
+It is subject to change but overall the required work can be separated into 3 categories:
+
+### 1. Alternative network integration into P2P components.
+
+Currently, Some P2P components have limited support for alternative network rules. This will require modifying `AddressBook`, `Connector`, `HandshakeBuilder`, `cuprate-dandelion` crate and `cuprated`'s dandelion implementation, and others to be *anonymization-network-aware*. After this work, we will define a new `NetworkZone` called `Tor` to connect to onion monero nodes.
+
+### 2. Implementation of Arti and Tor Daemon support
+
+Implementing `arti-client` inside `cuprated` and `cuprate-p2p{-*}`. Configurations, initialization, bootstrapping and launching onion services if requested. System tor daemon will also be supported.
+
+### 3. Documentation
+
+Update [Architectural book](https://architecture.cuprate.org) and [User book](https://user.cuprate.org/)
+
+# Additional work
+
+In the event that all guaranteed items are completed before the 2 months, I will spend my remaining time assisting (Issues, PRs and Reviews) on whatever is agreed is highest priority, or working on the following items:
+
+- Custom Allocator support (Performance improvements for Musl based linux distributions and potentially minor improvements on other OSs)
+- SOCKS5 proxy support for p2p
+- Fjall database integration
+- Related documentation
+
+# Milestones
+
+### 1. First month
+
+26 XMR
+
+### 2. Second Month and completion of main tasks
+
+26.5 XMR
+
+# Licensing
+
+All the works completed under this CCS will be delivered to the [`Cuprate/cuprate.git`](https://github.com/Cuprate/cuprate) github repository. This work will follow the current repository licensing:
+- All work inside `/binaries` is licensed under `AGPL-3.0-only`.
+- The rest of the root and crates are licensed under `MIT`.
+
+For more information about the Cuprate github organization, please [visit the organization page](https://github.com/Cuprate)
+
+# Funding
+
+I will be working 30 hours per week during 8 weeks at 45\$/hr - 205\$/XMR.
+30×8=240 | 240×45=10800 | 10800÷205=52.5

+### What are Reproducible builds and why do we need it?
+
+[Reproducible builds](https://reproducible-builds.org/) (aka "Deterministic Builds") are a set of software development practices that create an independently-verifiable path from source code to the binary code used by computers. 
+See this [reddit post](https://www.reddit.com/r/Monero/comments/9wojxi/the_watering_hole_attack_and_some_points_on/) I wrote some time ago explaining some of the reasons we need this. 
+
+### Why you should fund me:
+
+About two years ago I started my journey to support a cross-platform reproducible way to compile the monero cli binaries. After creating the first funding request at the end of last year (again to fund renting a VPS) I began developing the tools and documentation needed for Reproducible Builds (old tracking issue [here](https://github.com/monero-project/monero/issues/2641) and already merged code [here](https://github.com/monero-project/monero/commits?author=TheCharlatan)). 
+
+My work culminated into the [Boron Butterfly, Major Point Release 1](https://github.com/monero-project/monero/releases/tag/v0.14.1.0), which was the first monero release that was reproducibly built. I was glad to see the community [enthusiastically embrace](https://www.reddit.com/r/Monero/comments/c0l7tj/cli_v01410_has_been_tagged/) this new tool with many contributing their signatures of the release binary hashes to the [gitian.sigs](https://github.com/monero-project/gitian.sigs) repository, which I now maintain. It also has to be noted that other developers, chiefly amongst them Howard Chu and Jonathan Cross, expanded on my contributions, cleaning them up and adding further build targets, like freebsd (many thanks to them!).
+
+The obvious step now is to add reproducible builds to the monero-gui. A first step in this direction was made by adopting my rough cmake recipe in this [pull request](https://github.com/monero-project/monero-gui/pull/2404). To get this far was a lot of work. Now, I am again asking for the tools to continue my work. The main bottleneck I face is access to modern, fast hardware to test these resource intensive build system changes.
+
+I am therefore asking the community to help fund access to fast hardware to improve my efficiency.
+
+### Funding details:
+
+I currently work on a VPS / cloud server and I will apply whatever funds I receive from the community towards it, as my current contract will expire next month and I don’t have excess funds to renew it.
+
+12  [month development workstation VPS](https://www.worldstream.nl/en/dedicated/custom/order/HP_ProLiant_DL360_2x_Intel_Xeon_E5620_2_40GHz?config_token=42d84460e0f0af36d72fb0e07ba5b181) 
+€ 64 / month × 12 months = € 786 approx. 14 XMR (rounded up to account for fluctuations)
+
+If I find a better fitting VPS host for the same cost, I reserve myself the right to use it instead.
+
+NOTE: If some generous souls end up donating more than the amount requested, I will gladly apply that towards faster hardware, more RAM, etc.  The project (and my productivity) would benefit greatly from a more powerful computer than the one I am requesting (I could easily make use of 16 or even 32 cores, 64GB DDR4 RAM, etc).
+
+## What I will do with the VPS
+
+On the monero cli side I would like to finish the following over the next year:
+* Support compiling the tests in the strict gitian environment
+* Build and verify release binaries from other gitian builders
+
+For the gui my work will mainly include:
+
+* Writing build recipes to cross-compile qt with opengl support
+* Improving the cmake recipe
+* Lots of small iterative changes to get the hairy bits like device support and better native performance working
+* Finally releasing gitian build scripts for the gui builds
+
+### About me
+
+I'm a physics and computer science student studying at the University of Zurich and I do part time work as a developer at a hardware wallet manufacturer: https://github.com/digitalbitbox . My contributions so far to Monero are found [here](https://github.com/monero-project/monero/commits?author=TheCharlatan) and [here](https://github.com/monero-project/monero-gui/commits?author=TheCharlatan). I currently still view working on Monero as a hobby, so I am not looking for hourly compensation, however the hardware costs are a problem for me and I do not want this to restrict my contribution to the project. I have already implemented reproducible builds for the cli and for other gui based projects, so I am reasonably confident that I will be able to complete them for the gui as well, despite the significant challenges it presents.
+
+Next to the reproducible builds I have also started tinkering into the direction of writing a flexible monero transaction library in Rust that can be used in both on-system and embedded contexts.
+
+If you have any questions or concerns about this funding request, please don’t hesitate to reach out to me.

+
+AlexAnarcho and hundehausen shared a [candid update](https://repo.getmonero.org/monero-project/ccs-proposals/-/merge_requests/524#note_27732) regarding progress of TipXMR. Exerpt below:
+
+>We were young and naive and thought "how hard can it be to code this up" - harder than we thought it turned out.         
+>
+>We had very high standards, trying to use WASM wallets on the client-side where no info is leaked to the hoster of the TipXMR service, but this lead to a high barrier - which in turn lead to us never shipping anything   
+>
+>[...]    
+>
+>We are okay to deprecate the TipXMR CCS proposal and pass our collected funds on to this XMRChat proposal.
+
+The remaining funds from:
+
+* Milestone 2 - Working Prototype with implemented WASM wallet and front-end mockups (34.56XMR)
+* Milestone 3 - Finished product and launch of serivce (36XMR)
+
+Will be rewarded to https://xmrchat.com/ - [source](https://github.com/sa8ab/xmrchat)
+
+Who instead of implementing a WASM wallet to not share view keys with the service host have performed the following tasks deemed to be of the same value/importance:
+
+* Integrated monero-lws to handle multiple streamer view-keys.
+* extra misc. features such as a personal donation page with comments attatched.    
+
+# CCS Proposal: tipxmr.live - a non-custodial livestream donation service for OBS
+
+
+## Exec Summary
+
+[Tipxmr.live](https://github.com/hundehausen/tipxmr) aims to be a non-custodial service for streamers to accept and display Monero donations in their livestreams.
+
+Much like the existing solutions, this allows for an interactive experience for viewers and an easy way to monetize for the streamer.
+
+For this we use a browser based Monero WASM wallet and OBS.
+
+
+## The Problem we want to solve
+
+Censorship on the internet is an ongoing issue. Big platforms like YouTube and Twitch wield godlike power when it comes to their users. Not only do they impose barriers to entry, they also deplatform at whim and destroy years of work take away steady income streams. Content creators either have to conform and self censor or change their occupation.
+
+Furthermore, streaming platforms take big chunks of the streamers income, for example Twitch Bits. Some platforms take as much as 40% of the streamers donations (Chaturbate).
+
+Tipxmr.live fixes this.
+
+### Advantages of our solution
+
+With tipxmr.live we enable streamers to recieve income independent of a given platform. For this we employ Monero natively in the browser. Donors send XMR directly to the streamer without tipxmr.live as a custodian.
+
+Being build upon the Monero project, we inherit many benefits of the privacy coin we all love.
+
+Streamers are not required to have access to the banking system, all they need is provided for free on the internet (i.e. Monero and OBS).
+
+Moreover, streamers do not have to hand over personal information such as location, real identity and more. This opens the door for marginalized groups to recieve income, even if the doors to the tradional system is barred.
+
+
+## Who we are
+
+We are two Monero enthusiasts that have been following the project since the beginning of 2017. Our values are privacy, sound money and individual souvereignty. Crypto in general and Monero in particular fulfill these values and are the tool of the future.
+
+In the beginning of 2018 we created the [MoneroMumble Podcast](https://moneromumble.de/), a german-speaking, monthly podcast/roundtable to inform and engage the German community about developments concerning Monero. The roundtables take place on the second Sunday of every month on Jitsi and are livestreamed to YouTube.
+
+It was in this setting that the idea of a livestream donation program based on Monero was born. Tipxmr.live is therefore aiming to fulfill our need and we are our own customers.
+
+Grischa, aka hundehausen, has contributed many times to the Monero community, most recently with an [infographic about the workings of a Monero wallet](https://reddit.com/r/Monero/comments/gy0m1u/i_made_an_infographic_on_how_a_monero_wallet_is/). Grischa also wrote his bachelor thesis on the thought of "Monero as a currency for the masses" (thesis in German).
+
+Alex, aka AlexAnarcho, has been involved in the early days of the Monero Outreach and is a well-known outspoken advocate for Monero in the German community. Alex has been working for various cryptocurrency magazines such as the BeInCrypto and BTC-ECHO. In August he quit his full-time job at BeInCrypto to dedicate himself to tipxmr.live.
+
+[mghny](https://github.com/mghny) - who chooses to remain pseudonymous - has been a professional software-engineer for 5 years and has been coding for 8 years. They have been involved with tipxmr.live since the very beginning and keeps an eye on architecture, code and many more technical aspects. It cannot be overstated how beneficial an experienced engineer is in a project like ours, since it reduces complexity and makes the code easily reusable by other developers.
+
+
+## What is your project
+
+Since our [original idea and prototype](https://github.com/hundehausen/obs-monero-donations), the implementation has significantly evolved. The most obvious issue with the prototype was that it required a broad technical understanding. You can try it out by cloning the repo and seeing first-hand how cumbersome this process is. After cloning the repo you have to set up either a VPS or self-host and use portforwarding. Then you have to install monero, run an RPC, buy a domain, issue a SSL-certificate and so forth. In short, a process that no ordinary person would go through.
+
+But we don't want to be the only people enjoying the benefits of Monero. We want to make it accessible to _everybody_ - even non techy people. Therefore we went back to the drawing board and came up with a way that is intuitive yet non-custodial and as safe as possible.
+
+The current vision only requires [OBS](https://obsproject.com/), which is not only the biggest streaming software but also open source. In this we are platform agnostic and our users can use YouTube, Twitch, any other streaming platform or even host the stream themselves.
+
+
+### How it works
+
+The biggest issue in the beginning was how to make this whole thing non-custodial AND easy to use. Thanks to the awesome [monero-javascript library of woodser](https://github.com/monero-ecosystem/monero-javascript) that now includes a Monero WASM wallet, we are able to offer just that. WASM or WebAssembly basically means that you are running a full Monero wallet _in your browser_. You are the only one controlling the keys, they never leave your system. _But_ we are able to create a nice userinterface, a dashboard with settings, and much more.
+
+Of course the details are of no concern to the normal user. The streamer simply navigates to tipxmr.live, clicks to create a new account and the WASM wallet will generate a XMR seed on the clients machine. The streamer writes down the seed and chooses a username.
+
+Then the streamer can log in using only their seed. We have a small database running on our server that checks the hash of the seed and logs the user in if it checks out. The streamer is then shown a dashboard where they have an overview of their usage. The dashboard also includes a wallet section where they can send/recieve XMR (for instance if they want to withdraw to a cold storage). Last but not least the streamer can change some settings, i.e. how donations should be displayed etc.
+
+Every steamer has their own animation URL that they can point an OBS browser source to. Donation messages are displayed there, so if the browser source in OBS is active, they will overlay over the stream.
+
+For donors the whole process is very easy as well: The streamer simply displays his donation URL (tipxmr.live/$username). Depending on the streamers configuration a donor can enter a message and their name. Once they hit "submit" the donors browser will query the streamers browser over our backend for a subaddress. Once the subaddress is payed the animation site of the streamer is refreshed and the message is displayed.
+
+Donors are shown the subaddress with XMR URI and the corresponding QR code to pay either via desktop or mobile wallet.
+
+Donations are accepted on a 0-conf basis, meaning they will be queued up to display once they are seen in the mempool.
+
+It is surprising _how easy paying with Monero actually is_. Much easier than paying with PayPal or a bank. Also, _way more private_ and cheaper.
+
+
+
+### Other awesome stuff
+
+Since monero is an internet-based technology, there are many cool things we can do. Here is a few thoughts:
+
+-   allow the streamer to specify a "second price". I.e. if the second costs 0.00043 XMR the donor can select how many seconds he wants his message to stay visible and then will be given a specific amount of XMR to donate
+-   allow the streamer to set a cost per character in the message, same procedure as with the second price for the donor
+-   upload custom sounds to be played when recieving a message
+-   allow donors to send gifs with their message, and demand a minimum amount for this feature from the donor
+-   have a funding goal that gets added to with every donation
+-   and much more...
+
+
+## How our projects benefits the Monero community
+
+-   Tipxmr.live strives to give one more usecase to Monero and do so natively without having to use another cryptocurrency.
+-   We enable streamers to _earn_ XMR - the best way to aquire Monero. Furthermore, like Dr. Daniel Kim always talks about tipxmr.live is a usecase for the squeaqy clean guy. In short a way to use Monero that has nothing to do with illegal activity. This lends legitimacy to Monero as a medium of exchange and gives one more example in the narrative for our fight to privacy.
+-   Community led streams such as Monero Coffee Chat, Monero Space, Monero Mumble and many more will have an easy way to monitize to cover costs and increase enagement from the community.
+-   Monero has low fees and pretty good privacy. However, the privacy increases with every transaction on the blockchain and makes a blackball attack much harder. Since all our donations are on-chain, we increase the number of decoys for everybody. Notice that we as a service do not store any on-chain information such as TX-Id. Don't believe us? Check the code.
+-   We are one of the first, if not the first project to make use of the Monero javascript WASM wallet, as such we serve as an example project for implementation that many others can copy and look to. This is actually a big deal for everybody that knows some webdevelopment but is not savy enough to configure Webpack with monero javascript and say, Reactjs. Been there, done that - you are welcome!
+-   All of our code is open source, of course. This means that you do not have to use tipxmr.live, you can fork the repo and setup your own service. We also encourage everybody to look through the codebase and raise issues when needed.
+- We aim for a high developer friendlyness so others can take our implementation and change it to their needs. The implementation of the WASM Wallet should be a good example for others.
+-   To sum it up, we increase the possiblities in the Monero universe for streamers, average users and developers.
+
+
+## What has been done so far
+
+Since we are very passionate about Monero and the idea, we already have a GitHub repo with some code in it. We started on this late August 2020 and have been working on it full time (70-80 hours per week in total). We can see that there is still much work to be done and in order to get some feedback and support ourselves we turn to the Community Crowdfunding System.
+
+
+## What we ask for
+
+We ask for 72 XMR (approx. 5400 EUR) in total. So far we have invested more than 250 hours and will take another 150 hours to complete the minimum viable product.
+
+The cost for this project is considerabely lower than it would be if we were not bleeding heart fans of Monero and our idea. We want to see the Monero Project grow and enable more usecases.
+
+The first two milestones will cover the work we have already done. Which is mainly setting up the Webpack configuration for Monero javascript and React. And then implementing functions of Monero javascript with the WASM wallet, backend to allow communication between streamer and client (using socket.io) and writing of wallet functions (i.e. sync, getSubaddress etc.).
+
+The third milestone is when the project is finished and the service will officially launch. This will happen within the year 2020.
+
+We will also provide a server to host the website, our own full node and proxy to solve to [CORS issue](https://github.com/monero-project/monero/issues/5172). 
+
+We also contemplate expanding on tipxmr.live and generating income that way. But please keep in mind that we are 100% open source and anybody can copy our idea and hard work.
+
+
+## Future Plans
+
+To be absolutely clear: Tipxmr.live will be a paid service!
+
+We host the website and allow streamers to have a comfortable experience in recieving live donations. To cover costs and to protect against spam of accounts, we will charge a small, flat fee (probably 1 USD worth of XMR per month) for our base model. From our experience with livestream donations this fee is negleable, since most streams will earn far more than the fee.
+
+We are also thinking of a higher fee for premium tier that allows for more customizations. The premium account will hopefully make our innovative business model sustainable and keep us improving the project.

At the same time, making sure [pending build system PRs](https://github.com/monero-project/monero/issues/9631) for Monero core get reviewed and merged, particularly everything we need for FCMP++. 
+
+After that, I want to continue efforts to add multisig support to Feather by evaluating kaya's FROST-inspired multisig implementation as a more robust replacement for wallet2's implementation. A related [audit](https://ccs.getmonero.org/proposals/monero-serai-wallet-audit.html) is expected to conclude in March.

+
+### What
+
+This CCS proposal is for 3 months of full time Feather Wallet development.
+
+The goal for this proposal is to get Feather out of Beta and release the 1.0 version.
+
+### Background
+
+See the previous [CCS proposal](https://ccs.getmonero.org/proposals/tobtoht_feather_dev_q1_2021.html).
+
+### What I want to work on
+
+To ensure the first major release is as stable, robust, and reliable as possible I will be mainly focussing my efforts on polishing the existing feature set (and extending it where needed).
+
+- Fix bugs and issues as they arrise
+- Further improve the UI/UX (layout, actionable error messages, etc)
+- Improve documentation and user guides
+- Add more compile flags for minimal/alternative builds: (no-Tor, no-Websocket, etc)
+- Refactor parts of the codebase
+- Allow compiling on more architectures
+- Extensive QA testing on all supported platforms
+- Commission a redesigned logo
+- Upstream changes to libwalletqt / wallet_api
+- Improve the setup procedure (Windows installer, Debian package on PPA, mac DMG)
+- More advanced coin control: manual input selection and individual output labeling
+- Extend hardware wallet support to include Trezor devices
+- Allow opening multiple wallets at once
+
+Once the is more clarity surrounding Triptych-compatible multisig (see [1](https://repo.getmonero.org/monero-project/ccs-proposals/-/blob/master/cypherstack-sarang-triptych-research.md), [2](https://repo.getmonero.org/monero-project/ccs-proposals/-/merge_requests/225#note_10903)) I will continue working on integrating multisig into Feather.
+
+As always I will rely heavily on user feedback to determine where to put my focus.
+
+### Who
+
+Hi, I'm tobtoht. Creator of xmrguide and maintainer of Feather Wallet.
+I have been an active contributor to the Monero ecosystem since April 2018.
+
+Some of the things I have worked on are:
+
+- Created and maintained guides to set up Monero on Tails and Whonix ([xmrguide](http://xmrguide42y34onq.onion/), [reddit](https://old.reddit.com/r/Monero/comments/h8pbc2/))
+- Made miscellaneous contributors to the GUI (most notably Tails support)
+- Maintained a [list](http://xmrguide42y34onq.onion/remote_nodes) of .onion remote nodes with their status
+- Co-created Feather Wallet with dsc
+
+### Proposal
+
+40 hours per week at 45 USD/hour for 3 months (mid May to mid August) for a total of 91.5 XMR. At a rate of $236/XMR.
+
+Progress will be reported in #feather on OFTC. Monthly updates will be posted to /r/FeatherWallet in the form on release changelogs.
+
+Feedback and comments are welcome.
+
+**To donators**: In the week since I made this proposal there has been some very significant volatility, making it difficult to establish a "fair" XMR/USD price. As such I had to adjust the quoted price down several times because the difference had grown larger than my risk tolerance. I have currently settled on ${current_price} + 20%, in the expectation that the price will recover a bit after such a steep decline.
+
+To ensure I can sustain myself in the coming months AND the community gets its money's worth, I will extend the time spent on this proposal in case there is significant price appreciation over the next three months, like I did with my previous CCS (1.5 months overtime).

+
+### What
+
+This CCS proposal is for 3 months of full time Feather Wallet development.
+
+Non-exhaustive list of things I want to work on/towards or experiment with:
+
+- Bootstrappable builds
+  - Leverage [Guix](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/tree/master/contrib/guix) to produce cross-compiled, reproducible, [bootstrappable](https://bootstrappable.org/) builds for all target platforms and operating systems. Most of the work for this is already [done](https://github.com/feather-wallet/feather/pull/20). This has the added benefit of greatly speeding up release engineering, allowing for quicker release cycles.
+
+- Offline transaction signing using animated QR codes
+  - Export/import outputs, key images and transactions using animated QR Codes based on Blockchain Common's [Uniform Resources](https://github.com/BlockchainCommons/bc-ur).
+  - Work with the [Keystone](https://keyst.one/) team to add support for Monero and integrate with Feather.
+
+- Multi-node syncing (experiment)
+  - Syncing a month worth of blocks now requires more than 300 MB of data. Wallet synchronization (when connected to a remote node) is often limited by one of two things: your download speed or a node's upload speed (for mobile devices your CPU might play a role too). Multi-node syncing will experimentally determine the fastest nodes from your node list and automatically gather blocks from the highest performing nodes to utilize as much of your available bandwidth as possible. If you are on a fast internet connection this can result in dramatically faster syncing.
+
+- Allow skipping synchronization
+  - POV: You just opened your wallet on Tails after leaving it unopened for 3 months. You proceed to wait an hour or more for your wallet to synchronize knowing that there has been no activity. An advanced option to skip synchronization will eliminate the wait and allow you to send transactions almost immediately.
+
+- Improve Tor support and add support for more anonymity networks
+  - Add support for Tor bridges and stream isolation
+  - Switch the Tor client implementation to [Arti](https://blog.torproject.org/announcing-arti/) (when it is ready)
+  - Remove the hard dependency on Tor and allow Feather to be used without anonymity networks
+  - Modularize the anonymity network code to make it possible to integrate other networks like I2P and [Nym](https://github.com/nymtech/nym).
+
+- Mining interface overhaul (+ P2Pool support)
+  - The Mining tab is a bit crude. Mining is [not trivial](https://docs.featherwallet.org/guides/mining-setup) to set-up for new users, and it lacks configurability for advanced users. It's currently not possible to mine without having a wallet open. I want to move the Mining tab to a utility that can be accessed via the taskbar icon. Users should be able to quickly setup P2Pool, solo and pool mining. Feather will be able to run in the background and allow users configure scheduled mining, as well as provide a dashboard where users can check their mining stats and make changes to the configuration.
+
+- Improve packaging for Linux distributions
+  - Make Feather available as a Flatpak, Debian package, and maintain a working -bin package on the AUR. I also want to work on documentation that will help maintainers package Feather for their distribution.
+
+- Support more ways of spending Monero
+  - The libwallet interface lacks support for various advanced ways of spending Monero. The current Feather release added manual input selection. More is still desired, such as multi-destination sweeps or spends with an alternative change address.
+
+- Improved documenatation
+  - I'm already quite happy with the [documentation](https://docs.featherwallet.org/) in it's current state, but there is still room for improvement. A search feature is lacking and some parts could be improved with screenshots. Other parts can be rewritten to improve clarity and a glossary would be a welcome addition. I also want to add a section that goes in depth about threat-modeling to help users make more informed decisions about how they should use and configure the program to address their specific privacy or security concerns.
+
+- Fix bugs and issues as they arise
+
+I'll also work on reviewing contributions to CLI / GUI where I can and work on upstreaming patches to core.
+
+As always I will heavily prioritize user feedback when deciding what to focus on.

+
+### What
+
+This CCS proposal is for 3 months of full time Feather Wallet development.
+
+The goal of this proposal is to:
+
+- Reach feature-parity with the GUI (this mostly concerns hardware wallet support)
+- Further advance the Monero desktop wallet space by implementing new (and experimental) features.
+
+### Background
+
+- Feather was [announced](https://old.reddit.com/r/Monero/comments/idujx0/feather_free_opensource_monero_desktop_wallet/) on Aug 21 2020. 
+- A CCS [proposal](https://ccs.getmonero.org/proposals/feather-2020.html) funding the initial stages of development was accepted on September 1. 
+- The first alpha builds became [available](https://old.reddit.com/r/Monero/comments/j8kn8e/feather_a_brand_new_monero_gui_desktop_wallet/) on Oct 10. 
+- During the alpha time was spent on:
+    - Troubleshooting teething problems
+    - Bugfixes and performance improvements
+    - Getting the websites and build infrastructure up and running
+- The first beta builds were [announced](https://old.reddit.com/r/FeatherWallet/comments/kdmj3b/feather_beta2_released/) on Dec 15.
+    - The beta introduced signed release binaries.
+    - The focus for the beta was to fix the remaining UI/UX issues before adding new features. This is now mostly complete.
+    - A total of 211 pull requests (171 made by me) were submitted to the repository since the alpha release.
+- Some features that were added between the previous CCS proposal and now are: Windows support, view-only wallets, offline transaction signing, advanced transaction overview ([image](https://featherwallet.org/theme/img/feather_send_advanced.png)), transaction rebroadcasting, XMRig integration and reproducible Linux builds. Reproducible builds are mostly thanks to work done by Xiphon on the GUI.
+
+### What I want to work on
+
+- Hardware wallet support (most requested feature, so this is definitely happening now)
+- More exchange integrations (among which LocalMonero)
+- More advanced coin control features: manual input selection and individual output labeling
+- An in-wallet troubleshooting wizard that detects and suggests fixes for common issues ([example](https://git.wownero.com/feather/feather/issues/144))
+- Easy to use 2/2, 2/3 multisig (work on the message transportation layer and UI/UX design can commence before it is clear what changes Triptych/Arcturus will bring to multisig)
+- Qr scanner (scan addresses with laptop camera/webcam)
+- Multi destination transactions
+- Debian package
+- Sync over clearnet, construct & broadcast transactions over Tor
+- Approach the Tails team to discuss potential inclusion of Feather Wallet by default
+- Further UI/UX improvements (including more actionable error messages, better UI feedback)
+- Upstreaming of changes to libwalletqt / wallet_api
+- (Separate from Feather): Monero Daemon as a system service ([more info](https://git.wownero.com/feather/feather-meta/issues/3))
+
+This is a non-exhaustive list of some of the things I want to work on during the proposal.
+I expect the majority of the items on this list to be completed at the end of the 3-month period (with the exception of multisig, which will likely take longer).
+As always I will rely heavily on user feedback to determine where to put my focus.
+
+### Why contribute to Feather development?
+
+- It is an excellent testing grounds for features that may later be implemented in the official GUI (14 word seeds, coin control, multisig, etc)
+- There is more room to experiment with UI/UX and features and see what works before committing to it in a reference wallet.
+- Some users cite its simplicity, focus on user experience, quick setup, addition of power user features and similarity to Electrum as reasons they prefer it over the GUI
+- Feather will remain open source and licensed under BSD-3.
+
+### Who
+
+Hi, I'm tobtoht. Creator of xmrguide and maintainer of Feather Wallet.
+I have been an active contributor to the Monero ecosystem since April 2018.
+
+Some of the things I have worked on are:
+
+- Created and maintained guides to set up Monero on Tails and Whonix ([xmrguide](http://xmrguide42y34onq.onion/), [reddit](https://old.reddit.com/r/Monero/comments/h8pbc2/))
+- Made miscellaneous contributors to the GUI (most notably Tails support)
+- Maintained a [list](http://xmrguide42y34onq.onion/remote_nodes) of .onion remote nodes with their status
+- Created various Python [scripts](http://xmrguide42y34onq.onion/scripts) to convert from/to Monero using third party exchangers
+- Co-created Feather Wallet with dsc
+
+### Proposal
+
+40 hours per week at 45 USD/hour for a total of 150 XMR. The XMR/USD rate is based on current exchange rate of $144 XMR/USD.
+
+This will cover January/February/March. Any hours left over will bleed into April.
+
+Progress will be reported in #feather on OFTC. Bi-monthly updates will be posted to /r/FeatherWallet in the form on release changelogs.
+
+Feedback and comments are welcome.

+Hello! My name is Tom and I run txstreet.com. (Proof - http://out.txstreet.com/getmonero). I was recommended the CCS by a member of the Monero community to fund the addition of Monero to TxStreet. Because the website remains closed source for now, this proposal will be framed as an advertising campaign.
+​
+
+I have reduced the funding to the minimum amount of what I think is necessary for Monero to remain operational on the website. I do not want to make any profit off of the CCS.
+​
+# What is TxStreet?
+TxStreet.com is a live cryptocurrency transaction visualizer featuring Bitcoin, Ethereum and Bitcoin Cash. When a new transaction is broadcasted to a cryptocurrency, a person appears and attempts to board a bus. If the transaction has a high enough fee, they will board the first bus and be ready to be included in the next mined block. If there are too many transactions to be included in the next block, and the transaction didn't pay a high enough fee, the person will either wait in line or board a different bus. Consecutive buses will appear when there are enough transactions to fill them.
+​
+
+TxStreet has become popular in other crypto communites, here are some examples of people talking about it:
+- https://twitter.com/VitalikButerin/status/1299892964160749570
+- https://twitter.com/peter_szilagyi/status/1287699988882087938
+- https://twitter.com/rogerkver/status/1362183459377188867
+​
+
+Traffic estimate is 200k - 300k unique visitors per month based off of fathom showing 110k UV in the last month and cloudflare showing 650k UV in the last month. Fathom can be blocked client side by adblockers and cloudflare includes traffic from bots, which is why there is a large discrepancy.
+
+Twitter - https://twitter.com/txstreetCom
+​
+# How Monero will be presented
+Monero will have it's own street just like the other supported coins.
+​
+Live stats that will be shown:
+- Broadcasted Tx/Sec (Past 5 mins)
+- Confirmed Tx/Sec (Past hour)
+- Mempool Size (Bytes)
+- Mempool Count
+- Median Fee (USD)
+- Median Fee (Atomic units per byte)
+- Bytes/Second (Past 5 mins)
+- Ciruclating Supply
+- Price (USD)
+- Last Block
+- Median Txs Per Block (Past Hour)
+- Blockchain Size
+- Difficulty
+- Block Size Limit (Current)
+- Median Block Size (Past Hour)
+- Average Block Time (Past 250 Blocks)
+- Market Cap (USD)
+- 24 Hour Volume (USD)
+​
+
+The coins that TxStreet currently supports have no privacy by default, so it is possible to parse the data from transactions and categorize them into "houses". Since Monero has strong privacy and all of the information from each transaction is hidden (besides fee, size etc.), there will be no need for the houses and that section can be removed completely. Or if the community prefers, it can be replaced with something else.
+​
+
+To further convey the message of privacy, every "person" (transaction) will be an identical sprite. I have been suggested "Monero Memeball" or "Isabella Monero Girl" for the sprite. Initially I wanted to do a black trench coat, but was informed that there is a stigma towards that. The final decision will be "Monero Memeball" unless the community has feedback on this.
+Monero Memeball: https://i.imgur.com/WgsAgXm.jpg
+​
+
+When completed, the Monero street will be viewable here: https://txstreet.com/v/xmr
+Alongside bitcoin, it will be viewable here: https://txstreet.com/v/xmr-btc
+​
+
+To get to the Monero street, users can click the dropdown in the top left/right of other streets. For the first month, a large notification will show once for each user saying "New Street! View Monero".
+​
+# Cost breakdown
+​
+## Milestone 1 - Monero street complete and live
+20 XMR. I estimate it will take 1-2 months to complete. 
+​
+## Milestones 2-5 - Additional 3 months of advertising
+2.5 XMR  for server costs. ($120/month base estimate)
+
+2 XMR for maintenance.
+​
+
+This proposal is for 1 year of advertising. After 1 year, another proposal will be submitted for additional funding. If funding is not met, the operational costs of the Monero street will have to be paid for by me and the Monero street will be subject to removal if I can't cover those costs.

+
+We've successfully completed all of the goals we set for ourselves in our [first CCS proposal](https://ccs.getmonero.org/proposals/binarybaron-unstoppableswap.html). The prototype of the GUI we wanted to develop is fully functional (on testnet) and it will soon replace the now obsolete web interface ([UnstoppableSwap.net](https://unstoppableswap.net)).
+Based on the community response to both of our status updates ([reddit post 1](https://www.reddit.com/r/Monero/comments/slvy2a/making_atomic_swaps_accessible_to_all/), [reddit post 2](https://www.reddit.com/r/Monero/comments/uawipv/atomic_swap_gui_demo_on_mainnet_unstoppableswap/)), we felt that there is a strong desire in the community for us to continue development.
+
+Over the course of 7 months we have:
+
+- Made over **175 commits** to the [UnstoppableSwap GUI repository](https://github.com/UnstoppableSwap/unstoppableswap-gui/commits/main) and developed an initial working prototype.
+    - [Demo video of mainnet swap](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8XLGSsggnP0)
+    - [Demo video of decentralized peer discover](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MvUsjU67jf0)
+- I’ve become one of the three unpaid volunteers maintaining the [xmr-btc-swap](https://github.com/comit-network/xmr-btc-swap/) repository after the comit guys (original developers who developed the first MVP) have moved on to other projects. I’ve submitted and merged [12 Pull Requests](https://github.com/comit-network/xmr-btc-swap/pulls?q=is%3Apr+is%3Amerged+author%3Abinarybaron+) over the last months and reviewed some more.
+
+### Proposal:
+
+We are excited to keep working on Atomic Swaps. There are still loads of things needed to make it accessible and easy to use for everyone. Therefore we'd like to continue spending our time working on the FOSS GUI for BTC<>XMR Atomic Swaps. It is being built around the *[swap-cli](https://github.com/comit-network/xmr-btc-swap/blob/master/docs/cli/README.md)* and will empower even non-technical people to swap their BTC for XMR in a safe, decentralized and trustless manner. We are asking for 232 XMR for continued development for 4 months. At the end of each month 37 XMR will be paid out. We will work approximately 25 hours per week for 4 months straight which amounts to 400 hours of labour. Our hourly rate is 66 USD which amounts to 232 XMR at a current price of 112 XMR/USD
+
+### Who:
+I am binarybaron, the creator of UnstoppableSwap.net and Monero enthusiast. I was excited about Atomic Swaps from the very beginning, tested the first versions (MVP developed by COMIT guys) and contributed to the project early on. When the first testnet swap provider came online, I realized that we would need a better user interface and a platform to compare different swap providers. I decided to start building UnstoppableSwap.net. To my surprise, the interest was much greater than I could have ever predicted. In the first week alone, the website was visited more than 150,000 times. 
+Once I realized that a website was not enough due to the technical requirements, I started working on a desktop app. Soon after, I submitted my first CCS, which was quickly funded, and developed the first working prototype of the desktop user interface.
+
+### **What:**
+
+1. Development of the graphical user interface (*[GUI](https://github.com/UnstoppableSwap/unstoppableswap-gui)*)
+    1. **Auto Update**. For this to work we’ll need to code sign the releases on Mac OS using a paid certificate. The *GUI* will download and install the new version on startup if a new release is available. 
+    2. **Educate users on the rules of the swap protocol.** There are some simple but important rules all users need to follow to avoid loosing funds. Most importantly the functionality of the cancel and refund timelocks must be understood. If users are not fully aware on how to act in certain scenarios, **they risk loosing funds**. We’re not yet sure how to proceed on this. Some ideas are outlined below:
+        1. Quiz at first start-up to make sure the user understands what rules he needs to follow
+        2. Refer to official documentation of the *[swap-cli](https://github.com/comit-network/xmr-btc-swap/blob/master/docs/cli/README.md)* and the GUI
+        3. Refer to blog posts, videos and other online resources by the community
+    3. **Allow manual cancel & refund of swaps.** Although the *[swap-cli](https://github.com/comit-network/xmr-btc-swap/blob/master/docs/cli/README.md)* should refund swaps automatically in most cases, there are some edge cases where the user is required to cancel & refund manually. This is currently not possible in the GUI. Enabling the user to easily do this in the GUI is a must.
+    4. **Unit and Integration tests.** Although the *GUI* is relatively stable, it has pretty low test coverage. We need to create a lot more unit and possibly integration tests to cover all edge cases. Especially critical code like the internal finite state machine needs extensive test coverage.
+    5. **New Icon**. The current icon was only meant to be a placeholder and wasn’t intended to be final. We’ll either commision someone to make a new one or ask the community for input.
+    6. **Performance improvements.** We need to investigate what the performance bottlenecks of the *GUI* are. The most obvious ones at the moment are:
+        1. Inefficient SQL queries being used for querying the swap database
+        2. Overly-cautious file reads of the swap database
+        3. Unnecessary re-renders of React components
+        4. Blocking code being run in the main thread leading to freezing of the whole application
+    7. **General improvement of the GUI**. Fixing bugs, responding to issues, writing documentation and implementing new features as they come to mind.
+    8. **Switch the GUI from Testnet to Mainnet.** The GUI is currently Testnet only. Once we feel it is stable enough overall we’ll switch it over to Mainnet.
+2. **Development and maintenance of the API that enables clients to easily discover swap providers.** A swap provider is a peer you can connect with to exchange your BTC for XMR. ****Our API indexes them and provides additional data such as their uptime and their age. This API is publicly accessible and can be used by other services (e.g orangefren.com). We provide an HTTP(s) and a WebSocket (socket.io) endpoint which will be documented on UnstoppableSwap.net.
+3. **Development and maintenance of the UnstoppableSwap.net site.** It was the first initial prototype for a user interface for Atomic Swaps. It used to be a very stripped down version of the GUI and allowed users to more easily initiate a swap using the *[swap-cli](https://github.com/comit-network/xmr-btc-swap/blob/master/docs/cli/README.md)* by displaying them with a command they could copy and paste. This was not ideal, as it gave the impression of being user-friendly, but could be quite confusing and risky to use. The site will be converted into a simple download page for the *GUI* (similar to bisq.network)
+4. **Maintenance of rendezvous point.** There are currently three major ways for users to discover swap providers (peers they can swap their Bitcoin for Monero with). This proposal also includes the maintenance of the rendezvous point we run.
+    1. Word-of-mouth: The community can share the address of swap providers online (e.g on Reddit, IRC, Matrix..)
+    2. Centralized peer discovery via UnstoppableSwap API: We actively maintain a database of swap providers which can be used by anyone to retrieve a list of swap providers
+    3. Rendezvous point: The [rendezvous](https://github.com/libp2p/specs/blob/master/rendezvous/README.md) protocol is a lightweight mechanism for generalized peer discovery. It allows for the discovery of peers in a decentralized fashion. We operate a community rendezvous point through which swap providers can make themselves known to users, and through which users can find swap providers with whom they want to swap.(`/dns4/discover.unstoppableswap.net/tcp/8888/p2p/12D3KooWA6cnqJpVnreBVnoro8midDL9Lpzmg8oJPoAGi7YYaamE`)
+5. **Reviewing, merging and possibly submitting Pull Requests to the [xmr-btc-swap](https://github.com/comit-network/xmr-btc-swap/) repository.**
+    1. This proposal is mainly for continued development of the GUI and not for maintenance of the xmr-btc-swap project. **Time spent on the [repository](https://github.com/comit-network/xmr-btc-swap/) will at most be 5% of the total time spent on this proposal.**
+    2. Most of the Pull Requests we’ll submit will be related to making the *[swap-cli](https://github.com/comit-network/xmr-btc-swap/blob/master/docs/cli/README.md)* compatible with the *GUI*
+    
+
+If funded we'll provide monthly updates in the CCS comment section.

+
+## Brief Intro
+
+My name is Ciro S. Costa (https://github.com/cirocosta,
+https://twitter.com/utxobr), I'm currently a staff engineer, having previously
+being a core contributor to https://concourse-ci.org.
+
+Monero-wise, I've been mostly focused on the networking side of it, having
+implemented the basics of Levin's handshake in Go
+(https://github.com/cirocosta/go-monero) with full support for the
+Portablestorage format, which lets me create some interesting reports on node
+distribution (see https://twitter.com/utxobr/status/1386458317405540360) by
+crawling the P2P network.
+
+
+## Problem
+
+_**tl;dr**: there's no good solution for running a large number of monero
+nodes_
+
+For those with more than a machine or two to run Monero nodes (or even miners),
+there's not a good solution out there for having those up and running in an
+easy to upgrade fashion.
+
+It's great that folks like Seth provide wonderful guides on how to run Monero
+nodes (see https://sethsimmons.me/guides/run-a-monero-node-advanced/), and that
+within the functional tests in the codebase we can tell how to run regtest, but
+none of that helps with running a larger-scale setup.
+
+
+## Proposal
+
+_**tl;dr**: extend the Kubernetes API via its common extension system to provide
+semantics that make deploying clusters of monero nodes or miners with ease. See
+proof of concept at https://github.com/cirocosta/monero-operator_
+
+Kubernetes (see [what is kubernetes]) provides us with this vendor-neutral API
+for expressing what the desired state should be, and then behind the scenes,
+having that state achieved (and maintained) through the use of small
+programs whose whole job is to deal with going from current state to desired state.
+
+Aside from being offered by pretty much every cloud provider (and many VPS
+offerings out there too) and still remaining not vendor-specific, its API is
+open for extension, which we can leverage to provide extra functionality that
+it didn't have before.
+
+By extending the Kubernetes API via the use of [Custom Resources], we're able
+to provide a new semantics for the users of those clusters so that we simplify
+*a lot* running, say a few Monero nodes all configured the same across
+different machines
+
+
+```yaml
+kind: MoneroNodeSet
+apiVersion: utxo.com.br/v1alpha1
+metadata:
+  name: nodes
+spec:
+  replicas: 3
+  hardAntiAffinity: true
+  monerod:
+    image: utxobr/monerod:v0.17.2.0     # if testing a release candidate,  then
+    args:                               # just bump the image and the operator
+      - --public                        # will take care of rolling out, preserving
+      - --enable-dns-blocklist          # the data already synced.
+      - --enforce-dns-checkpointing
+      - --out-peers=1024
+      - --in-peers=1024
+      - --limit-rate=128000
+```
+
+which could be very useful for businesses like CakeWallet that run sets of full
+nodes (or literally anyone wanting to run highly-available monerod
+deployments), but it can be also useful for folks doing research like me,
+wanting to roll out a regtest network with many peers:
+
+```yaml
+kind: MoneroNetwork
+apiVersion: utxo.com.br/v1alpha1
+metadata:
+  name: regtest
+spec:
+  replicas: 20
+
+  template:
+    spec:
+      monerod:
+        args:                           # each replica has these args
+          - --regtest                   # plus `--add-exclusive-node`
+          - --fixed-difficulty=1        # pointing just at the other
+                                        # peers, forming a closed net
+```
+
+_(^ which under the hood gets materialized in the form of `monerod` instances
+pointing one at each other, with volumes attached and everything you'd want for
+a real setup.)_
+
+Naturally, we can do the same for miners, for instance, we can get to run 10
+replicas of `xmrig` against a pool like so:
+
+```yaml
+kind: MoneroMiningNodeSet
+apiVersion: utxo.com.br/v1alpha1
+metadata:
+  name: miners
+spec:
+  replicas: 10
+  hardAntiAffinity: true
+
+  xmrig:
+    args:
+      - -o
+      - cryptonote.social:5556
+      - -u
+      - 891B5keCnwXN14hA9FoAzGFtaWmcuLjTDT5aRTp65juBLkbNpEhLNfgcBn6aWdGuBqBnSThqMPsGRjWVQadCrhoAT6CnSL3.node-$(id)
+      - --tls
+```
+
+and then, if we regret chosing that pool, all it takes is patching the object
+and under the hood, our extension to Kubernetes takes care of rolling the
+updates out.
+
+_(aside: couple this with [horizontal pod autoscaler (HPA)] and you don't even
+need to pre-provision any underlying machines - if your provider supports HPA -
+as by making use of proper resource reservation, asking for extra replicas
+would trigger the creation of new machines)._
+
+
+[what is kubernetes]: https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/overview/what-is-kubernetes
+[Custom Resources]: https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/extend-kubernetes/api-extension/custom-resources

+[OpenMetrics]: https://github.com/OpenObservability/OpenMetrics/blob/main/specification/OpenMetrics.md
+[Prometheus]: https://prometheus.io/
+
+
+## The scope
+
+I currently have a working proof of concept
+(https://github.com/cirocosta/monero-operator) that implements those three
+custom resources mentioned above (`MoneroMiningNodeSet`, `MoneroNodeSet`, and
+`MoneroNetwork`).
+
+This CCS would cover:
+
+1. boosting the confidence in the codebase by providing more tests to cover
+   edge cases glanced over while building the prototype, as well as improving
+   installation and documentation as a whole
+
+2. adding support for Tor and I2P so that nodes and networks can be deployed on
+  annonimity networks with a line or two in the yaml while still running the
+  services with high availability
+
+3. improving the observability of the deployed `monerod` instances introducing a
+  sidecar to expose `monerod` metrics for any [OpenMetrics] consumer (like
+  [Prometheus])
+
+
+As a result, the community will end up with:
+
+- a Kubernetes extension that lets anyone deploy highly-available `monerod`
+  (and miners) on any Kubernetes-enabled platform
+
+- a Go package that they can rely on for interacting with `monerod`
+
+
+## The structure, milestones, and price.
+
+Working on this during my personal hours, I plan to do the work a few hours a
+day on the side (with a few healthy periods of break) until completion.
+
+The proposal is structured to be paid along with the delivery of the three points above:
+
+1. confidence in the codebase + installation/doc guides: ~10Hr
+2. support for Tor and I2P for full nodes and whole networks: ~15Hr
+3. observability of `monerod`: ~15Hr
+
+Assuming a rate of 100$/hr and a current rate of 404 USD/xmr (May 3rd, 2021):
+
+| deliverable | hours | usd | xmr |
+|-----|------|-----|-----|
+| 1 | 10 | $ 1000 | XMR 2.47 |
+| 2 | 15 | $ 1500 | XMR 3.71 |
+| 3 | 15 | $ 1500 | XMR 3.71 |

+
+# Introduction
+
+Hi, everyone! [v1docq47](https://t.me/v1docq47) is here!
+
+This is our new CCS proposal for a new work period for making Russian voiceovers of Monero Konferenco and Monerotopia video presentations and for the support of XMR.RU web-site
+
+# Who I Am?
+
+At the moment I'm the only representative of [XMR.RU project](https://xmr.ru/) and the maintainer of the modest YouTube channel dedicated to Monero ecosystem, "[Monero Russian Community](https://www.youtube.com/channel/UChZc5PLsbP5zeFrmOYMKGmA)".
+
+[Since 2017](https://github.com/pulls?q=is%3Apr+author%3Av1docq47+archived%3Afalse+is%3Aclosed+sort%3Acreated-asc) we've been working on translations and writing various articles and manuals about Monero in Russian.
+
+We also create [news](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ixUamqRd3nc&list=PLQyX7h187qnQWtCN6brBXsB9QLEuaJWQO) / [informational](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FOsHxWG5jNs&list=PLQyX7h187qnTqq4_-EAnp4HZk9eJpMvZK) / [tutorial](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bug2_NvHeNs&list=PLQyX7h187qnTGFHdrdZL7VRxQINEQZ2xJ) videos and make [Russian voiceovers](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=69Vszlx5PQ0&list=PLQyX7h187qnR3doOALJAmHv1mAVPNzNV9) of the key events happening in Monero Community and ecosystem into Russian.
+
+That is, we are doing localization of Monero project on Russian and creating informational / news videos, speeches and reports from all the Monero events (Monerotopia, Critical Decentralisation Cluster (36c3), Monero Konferenco etc). 
+
+## Shortlist of my previous Monero localization works
+

+
+# What?
+
+Since our previous CCS proposal [didn't cover all Monero Konferenco 2022 presentations](https://trello.com/c/voUReLOW/1-monero-konferenco-2022-on-russian-voiceover) (the final part of videos was published on YouTube about 3 months ago), the first thing we are planning to do is to [finish the Russian voiceover](https://trello.com/c/ElHmwsLA/1-monero-konferenco-2022-on-russian-voice-over) of the remaining’s video, and by the time the work with Monero Konferenco 2022 will be over, we with all our great pleasure and interest will start to voiceover Monerotopia 2023 presentations.
+
+In addition, we are publishing text transcripts of all the talks both in Russian and English in a separate repository (similar to previous events like [Monerotopia 2022](https://github.com/v1docq47/monerotopia-2022-transcriptions), [Monero Konferenco 2019](https://github.com/xmr-ru/xmr_ru/tree/main/content/logs/konferenco-2019), [Monero Konferenco 2022](https://github.com/v1docq47/monerokon-2022-transcriptions), [Critical Decentralisation Cluster (36c3)](https://github.com/v1docq47/monero-cdc-36c3-transcriptions)) so that everyone could not only watch, but also read the text versions of the talks.
+
+We also plan as always to cover all key events happening in the Monero Community on a regular basis in our separate [news blog](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ixUamqRd3nc&list=PLQyX7h187qnQWtCN6brBXsB9QLEuaJWQO).
+
+As always, the whole process and progress will be displayed in our dedicated [Trello bord](https://trello.com/b/i5ibESCu/may-2023-october-2023) (no worry, the [Monerotopia 2023](https://trello.com/c/6L9wVlos/4-monerotopia-2023-on-russian-voice-over) part of the table will be filled as the translations are published).
+
+P. S. We would like to point out that the new period of the financed work will not begin immediately. I mean not in April. It will begin in May. But this doesn't mean that in April we're going to have a rest. No. We just need to take a little breath and finish some other projects for XMR.RU web-site. It's always suffers the lack of our attention. In particular, we want to update all our tutorials for [wiki.xmr.ru](https://wiki.xmr.ru/), rewrite some tutorial videos concerning Monero CLI/GUI wallets, and make a separate short video block about mobile and hardware Monero wallets (all that work in April is not included into our current CCS proposal).
+
+# How much and Payouts
+
+14$ per hour, \~30 hours per week or \~120 hours per month (\~3-5 hours а day)  
+30-day average Monero price on Kraken \~155$ (on 22.03.2023)
+
+## In total
+
+64.8 XMR for 6 months work  
+10.8 XMR per month starting from May

+This is our next CCS proposal for the new winter period for voiceover of [Monerotopia 2023](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GcJiaPmldhQ&list=PLfJ_JjSwYaa810CWboNcPX7cY-JYEWo-4) and [Konferenco 2023](https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLsSYUeVwrHBm1m7IaU3JiDVb5EC7cn0KG) videos into Russian, creating other content for [Monero Russian Community Youtube channel](https://www.youtube.com/@MoneroRussianCommunity) and supporting [Russian Monero website XMR.RU](https://xmr.ru/).

+- we are also planning to [launch a series of short videos](https://trello.com/c/B8mYhqH4/6-monero-tutorials-shorts) on working and interacting with Monero tools and wallets. The main idea behind this is to teach and show users that downloading, installing, mining, pruning the blockchain, sending and receiving transactions, etc. is simple. Just the key information, nothing superfluous
+- we will continue to publish weekly and quarterly news releases, translate articles and all kind of materials related to Monero for XMR.RU and Moneropedia

+# Introduction
+
+Hi, everyone!
+
+[v1docq47](https://t.me/v1docq47) is here!
+
+This is our next CCS proposal for the new period for voiceover of [Monerotopia 2023](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GcJiaPmldhQ&list=PLfJ_JjSwYaa810CWboNcPX7cY-JYEWo-4) and [Konferenco 2023](https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLsSYUeVwrHBm1m7IaU3JiDVb5EC7cn0KG) videos into Russian, creating other content for [Monero Russian Community Youtube channel](https://www.youtube.com/@MoneroRussianCommunity) and supporting [Russian Monero website XMR.RU](https://xmr.ru/).
+
+# Who I Am?
+
+[Since 2017](https://github.com/pulls?q=is%3Apr+author%3Av1docq47+archived%3Afalse+is%3Aclosed+sort%3Acreated-asc) we've been working on translations, transcriptions, voiceover videos and writing various articles and manuals about Monero in Russian.
+
+We also create news [weekly](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ixUamqRd3nc&list=PLQyX7h187qnQWtCN6brBXsB9QLEuaJWQO) and [quarterly](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rhWi3a3gZXw&list=PLQyX7h187qnTrEQo1n1_-lxR5tk0qlRKo) / [informational](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FOsHxWG5jNs&list=PLQyX7h187qnTqq4_-EAnp4HZk9eJpMvZK) / [tutorial](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bug2_NvHeNs&list=PLQyX7h187qnTGFHdrdZL7VRxQINEQZ2xJ) videos.
+
+Besides we are publishing text translations of all the Monero speeches both in Russian and English in a separate repository (similar to previous events like [Monero Konferenco 2022](https://github.com/v1docq47/monerokon-2022-transcriptions), [Critical Decentralisation Cluster (36c3)](https://github.com/v1docq47/monero-cdc-36c3-transcriptions), [Monerotopia 2022](https://github.com/v1docq47/monerotopia-2022-transcriptions)) so that everyone could not only watch, but also read the text versions of the speeches.
+
+That is, we are doing localization of Monero project on Russian.

+# What?
+
+During the upcoming period we plan to accomplish the following milestones:
+
+- finish voiceover and transcript of the remaining [Monerotopia 2023](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GcJiaPmldhQ&list=PLfJ_JjSwYaa810CWboNcPX7cY-JYEWo-4) videos ([10 speeches](https://trello.com/c/6a8Dfi9C/4-monerotopia-2023-on-russian-voiceover))
+- continue voiceover and transcript [Konferenco 2023](https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLsSYUeVwrHBm1m7IaU3JiDVb5EC7cn0KG) videos ([~7 speeches](https://trello.com/c/hW0HdVu4/5-konferenco-2023-on-russian-voiceover))
+- re-voiceover old [informational](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FOsHxWG5jNs&list=PLQyX7h187qnTqq4_-EAnp4HZk9eJpMvZK) and [tutorial](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bug2_NvHeNs&list=PLQyX7h187qnTGFHdrdZL7VRxQINEQZ2xJ) videos (~10 videos)
+- creating new videos on working with Monero tools such as Gupax, Blockchain explorer, etc.
+- we will continue to publish weekly ([22 videos](https://trello.com/c/feQdy8p0/2-monero-news-weekly)) and quarterly ([2 videos](https://trello.com/c/ZYmjmEbU/3-monero-news-quarterly)) news, [translate](https://trello.com/c/8Pe2secC/1-monero-on-xmrru) articles and all kind of materials related to Monero for XMR.RU and Moneropedia
+
+As always, the whole process and progress will be displayed in our [Trello board](https://trello.com/b/9dB370Bx/june-2024-november-2024).
+
+# How much and Payouts
+
+10$ per hour, \~30 hours per week or \~120 hours per month (\~3-5 hours а day)  
+
+30-day average Monero price on Kraken \~125$ (on 10.05.2024)
+
+## In total
+
+120 (hours per month) * 6 (month) * 10 ($ per hour) / 125 (30-day average Monero price) = 7200 / 125 = 57.6 XMR for 6 months work
+
+9.6 XMR per month starting from June
