+# Help an independent film featuring Monero get to the Oscars™!
+### Who are you?
+Hey all, my name is George Nicholas, an “award-winning” filmmaker and Monero enthusiast. You can see my IMDb profile here: https://www.imdb.com/name/nm11077440/    
+I was involved with making "Monero Means Money".
+### What’s up?
+I’ve written and directed an independent, 38-minute live-action film titled MARK OF DISTINCTION. The film is in Spanish and English and was shot in Tijuana, Mexico in July of ‘22 on 16mm Kodak film. It features Monero, but is not focused on it -- it is inspired by real events and tells the story of a 16-year-old boy who gets recruited by the Mexican cartel to smuggle liquid meth across the border. The boy dies tragically at the hands of U.S. Customs and Border Protection, who ask him to drink the liquid to prove that it’s not drugs.
+You can see a report and footage of the incident here:
+https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7KsKtVnrRaM    
+And some behind-the-scenes photos from our shoot [here](https://twitter.com/markofdistinctn/status/1554237266460954625?s=20) and [here](https://twitter.com/markofdistinctn/status/1554237518098313217?s=20).    
+Government coercion over the individual is the reason I came to Monero and it is the reason I was driven to tell this story.
+### How is this related to Monero?
+Monero is featured in 3 scenes. As background, the protagonist, MANUEL, has found a physical Monero coin that his father had stashed away for him before his disappearance--
+### Did you just say a physical Monero coin? gtfo
+Yeah, a physical Monero coin, like this one: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1502918.0
+### OK, so what happens next?
+So, Manuel is carrying the coin around in his pocket like an idiot, not realizing what he has. His friend, RODOLFO, sees him trying to shove it down a slot machine, but thankfully the coin is too big to fit. Rodolfo explains to him what he has and Manuel’s eyes light up. Outside the bar, the two get beat up because of an earlier incident and the hooligans make off with Manuel’s scooter and his coin. Manuel gets his revenge and recovers the scooter, but not the coin. Rodolfo later finds the coin and tries to give it back to Manuel, but it is too late…    
+Monero represents the boy’s potential – the unrealized wealth that every individual carries within, although not everyone finds the key to unlock it. The coin ends up with the person who understands its value, as often happens in real life.
+### How can we help?
+I self-funded the shoot and post-production (the budget was in the low six figures), which exhausted my personal savings. We need funds for the most crucial phase – the release of the film. This includes getting it in front of festivals and promoting it there, hiring a publicist, running an awards campaign. All this costs money and I am coming to the Monero community for help.
+### What do we get in return?
+##### 1. Exposure (the good kind)
+The film has the chance of reaching hundreds of thousands and even millions of people. Not every viewer will become a Monero user, but they will all be exposed to Monero in a positive way. The community will also receive an acknowledgement in the credits, to the effect of "this movie was kindly supported by the Monero community" with the Monero logo and getmonero.org underneath.    
+Monero already gets exposure in the media and [even some TV shows](https://twitter.com/vikrantnyc/status/1616152774856540166?s=20), but almost always as a Ransomcoin. This is a story that shows Monero being used in the way most of us use it -- as a savings vehicle that we can spend or pass down to our loved ones outside of anyone else's control. Monero means money, but it also represents so much more -- a path towards personal freedom, away from coercion by the state or others. This is what the film tries to get across and hopefully it succeeds.
+##### 2. Physical presence
+With the community's help and the right release strategy, the film will play at major festivals across the world. Anytime the film plays, this will be an opportunity for an impromptu Monero meetup. Screenings can be publicized in the community beforehand to attract local Monero fans throughout the world.
+##### 3. A cause to rally behind
+I know we take the whole magic internet money thing seriously around here, which is why I love Monero. It is the reason no other coin was considered to take its place in the film. And I respect the more conservative view that the CCS should only be used to fund developer work. The number of undelivered, CCS-funded projects is dishearteninig, which is why I held off on asking for help until the film was actually made and ready to go.    
+Monero has the best p2p cash characteristics of any coin, but we could do a better job of celebrating that. This film will give us an opportunity to rally behind a cause that almost all of us agree with -- the right of the individual to remain free from oppression, especially from governments. We can go to festivals together or follow from home, celebrate the wins and mourn the losses. Consider it an exercise in community-building.
+##### 4. Some cool GIFs, of course.
+But you'll get them regardless, since the film is already made.
+![CoinGIF](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/markofdistinction/ccs/main/coin_squeeze.gif)
+Also, the idea to have a private screening for the community at MoneroKon was floated, which I'd be open to doing if there is interest.
+### Alright, how much do you want? Spit it out.
+###### We are looking to raise 154 XMR (the equivalent of $25K at Kraken’s current 20-day EMA)
+### What's your Oscars strategy? (i.e. How are you going to spend it?)
+Films under 40 minutes are considered live action short films by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences. This is the category we're aiming for. There are two ways for a film to qualify:
+1. The film must win an award at one of the ~130 Academy Award-qualifying festivals throughout the world:
+    https://www.oscars.org/sites/oscars/files/95aa_anim_short_festivals.pdf
+    Submission fees to these festivals are generally in the $50-$100 range, so that alone can eat up $10K.
+2. The film must be publicly exhibited for paid admission in a movie theater in Los Angeles or New York City for
+    one week:  https://www.oscars.org/sites/oscars/files/93aa_short_films.pdf 
+    This is the cheaper option at about $3K, but films that qualify with a festival win are preferred by Academy voters, so we'll try the festival route first.
+Once the film qualifies, the remaining funds will go towards hiring a publicist and running an awards campaign. Jim Dobson at Indie-PR has seen the film and loves it.    
+He ran the Oscars campaign for AUDIBLE, a short documentary that received a nomination in 2022. https://www.indie-pr.com/about    
+Another PR firm with extensive experience that has expressed interest is JJPR: http://joshuajasonpr.com/film-campaigns    
+I make no guarantees that we will win an Oscar or be nominated, but every industry professional who has seen the film thinks we have a good chance (and not just the publicists who stand to make money). We are taking this journey and I'd like the community to come along!
+### Who else has seen the film?
+I've reached out to some people I know in the community, who have kindly taken the time to see it. Here's what they had to say:
+##### jberman said:
+    "This has the feel of something that would win a lot of awards."
+    "Was the idea of the friend chasing him to give the coin to him basically saying Monero represented an
+    alternative path to a better life/better system instead of the darker one he chose? That's how I read its place
+    in the story."
+##### midipoet said:
+    "you don't need me to tell you, but for what it's worth, the production value is extremely high" 
+    "it's pretty much feature length quality, as you were aiming for. what struck me most though was the quality
+    of the acting."
+##### Vik Sharma said:
+    "Really, really well made."
+##### Doug from MoneroTalk said:
+    "Captivating! Sunita and I loved it."
+##### Johnny Mnemonic said:
+    "Awesome film! The Monero coin inclusion was great… 
+    Touching story… I really feel for the kid at the end because he’s just trying to make things right with his grandfather. 
+    I also liked that you included real footage at the end… really makes you feel how real it is. "
+##### dsc said:
+    "that last scene had me on the edge of my seat!"
+### What happens if Monero's price fluctuates in the meantime?
+The amount we're raising is denominated in XMR. Any fluctuations in fiat value are at our own risk/benefit.
+### When do you expect to be paid?
+50% upon approval, 50% upon qualifying for the Academy Awards, as described above.
+### Is the film on any social media?
+https://twitter.com/markofdistinctn    
+https://instagram.com/markofdistinctionfilm    
+https://fb.com/markofdistinctionfilm
+### Can I see it before I donate?
+Yes, please send 1 piconero (0.000000000001 XMR) to the donation address as a captcha and email markofdistinction@proton.me with the txid and tx key and you'll receive a link back.
+### OK, take my money! ;-)

+# Who, what, when, where?
+Hi, I'm monerobull. I run monero.town & monerosupplies.com. I also never did any paid work for Monero before.
+I was recently mentioned in a CCS proposal by geonic, famous Monero movie director. There's a lot of opportunity for improvement in the non-dev areas of the project, and not always enough hands to get it done. It was agreed upon that, were this to happen, this would be done through my own CCS proposal rather than through geonics. This moves me from being accountable to nobody, to accountable to the community.
+A quick summary of what I'd be working on:
+- Setting up / managing a Monero Website Workgroup, keep it up to date (our roadmap still mentions triptych)
+- Joining the moderator teams for Matrix and helping along with discord
+- Being a supportive figure in the Monero Community workgroup and helping that along as needed
+- Keeping a finger on the "pulse of the community" in the various chat rooms and platforms (Telegram, Discord, not IRC, Matrix, Reddit, etc.)
+- Aiding and assisting in event work as needed (part of Monerokon team since MK3)
+# Why?
+There's lots of non-dev stuff to do, and not so many people to do it. I am mostly capable and willing.
+# How long? How much?
+30 XMR for three months for half time work. Possibility of renewal depending on community sentiment.
+# Deliverables
+I will do all of the above in the beginning section, and give a monthly report to the community on what's been done, and tasks accomplished. Luigi does a lot of work, I'd like to take on some of that.
+# COI
+I would have never made this proposal without geonics preceding yolo proposal. In the past I've tried to stay away from the CCS due to all the drama surrounding it. This very proposal was born out of CCS drama.

+# Monerotopia 2024 Marketing & Publicity
+Hi! As discussed in the [previous community meeting](https://libera.monerologs.net/monero-community/20241026#c451916), I am proposing that we [spend the unused funds](https://repo.getmonero.org/monero-project/ccs-proposals/-/merge_requests/70#note_26878) from the last Monero Outreach CCS on marketing & publicity for Monerotopia 2024, which starts next Thursday. I would be the key point of contact for the PR firm and will provide a final report on what's been achieved.
+Our events are the perfect opportunity to publicize/advertise Monero and so far we haven't done a good job at that. This proposal is a first step in changing that.
+**Estrategia Blue PR**, a leading publicity firm in Mexico, has made a [proposal](https://github.com/geonic1/geonic/blob/master/Monerotopia%20Proposal.pdf) and they are ready to start today. We need to engage them ASAP. Vik Sharma has agreed to handle the payment and receive the XMR at no surcharge. The proposed budget (~$5500) is within the remaining amount (36.68 XMR or ~$6000), which we intend to spend in full with more (or less) media buys, depending on the actual amount received by the firm.
+As the only remaining, active member of Monero Outreach, I believe this is a good use of the funds and in the spirit of what the donors wished to support.
+Cheers!

+Hello! I'm mrcyjanek and I'm currently working on the Unnamed Monero Wallet (short: xmruw) that aims to be as portable as possible and as close to `wallet2_api.h` as it is reasonably possible.
+However, this project got much bigger than I initially expected and resulted in a project that is huge in size, but also has really large portability capabilities, after fighting for a couple days with Wayland implementation on SailfishOS I (with the help from Mister_Magister and NotKit) managed to run the first cryptocurrency wallet natively on SFOS ([that is available on the app store of that os](https://openrepos.net/content/mrcyjanek/unnamed-monero-wallet-xmruw)). More details and the origin story can be found in a [blog post announcing the wallet](https://www.mrcyjanek.net/p/xmruw-monero-wallet/).
+I'm developing `xmruw` with a few critical points in mind:
+- There should be no database responsible for any of the monero-releated functions - so I won't accidentally do something that shouldn't be done.
+- The app should be as close to `wallet2_api.h` as possible to eliminate things like overly complex state management as something that causes issues.
+- Privacy should be prioritized - no external services are contacted in the app, and if there ever happens to be some external feature it will be opt-in in settings with an option to route entire traffic through Tor.
+- Security is also prioritized - not only by minimizing the attack surface but also by providing features such as stealth mode (inspired by Samourai wallet)
+- UX is the most critical of them all in my opinion - without the right UX, not many users are going to use a wallet, so it is my responsibility as a developer to make the wallet available on all platforms and to be appealing to users.
+- As a mobile Linux enthusiast I'll also do my best to offer secure monero wallet solutions for owners of non-Android and non-iOS mobile devices
+# About
+I've decided to take the simplest path from `wallet2_api.h` to the actual wallet UI, so instead of forking m2049r/cake implementation I've decided to use `dart:ffi` to call the native functions - this made a lot of code unnecessary, and the part that was still required was mostly generated - so I call that a huge win. But not without it's own cost - I had to write a wrapper for `wallet2_api.h` that would provide C headers instead of C++ - which meant [writing a bunch of boilerplate code](https://git.mrcyjanek.net/mrcyjanek/monero_c/src/commit/abaa3a2d165577a79ce0c3fe5382b68fa260ecc1/libbridge/src/main/cpp/wallet2_api_c.cpp#L1549) and implementing a couple of dart/flutter libraries, that gave birth to the foundation of the wallet
+## Unnamed Monero Wallet (xmruw)
+[Website](https://xmruw.net), [Gitea](https://git.mrcyjanek.net/mrcyjanek/unnamed_monero_wallet), [GitHub](https://github.com/mrcyjanek/unnamed_monero_wallet), [Downloads](https://download.xmruw.net/)
+Features of the wallet include:
+- Sending/Receiving monero
+- Online/Offline wallet modes
+  - With URQR and file exports for Android/iOS
+  - With clipboard-based exports for QubesOS
+- Embedded Tor support
+- (soon) Embedded i2p support [^1]
+- Stealth mode (fake calculator app that opens wallet if the correct pin is provided)
+- Multiple account support
+- Coin control
+- Signing / Verifying of messages
+- Custom themes
+- Advanced settings
+  - Performance analysis tool for the `wallet2_api.h` functions called
+  - Debug information that makes development easier
+  - Configuration options to opt-in to experimental features (such as [background sync](https://github.com/monero-project/monero/pull/8619))
+- OpenAlias resolving
+- Backup/Restore
+- Historically accurate currency conversion done fully offline
+- And all of the "obvious" features such as transaction list, subaddress list, wallet locking, QR code scanning, etc.
+## Scope of work
+While working on Unamed Monero Wallet, here is a non-comprehensive list of the things I want to accomplish in no particular order, as it doesn't make sense to separate some things.
+- Expanding compatibility of `monero_c` to all platforms that I have access to (Linux (glibc+musl), FreeBSD, iOS, MacOS, Windows) in an easily-reproducible way (single script and a docker environment)
+- Making `xmruw` available for all platforms (and I do mean all platforms) and in app stores (including play store, self-hosted f-droid repository, apple app store, .deb, and .rpm repository).
+- Implementing features desired by users, currently this includes
+  - periodic sync (via [background-sync](https://github.com/monero-project/monero/pull/8617)) to provide seamless experience, no matter how frequently the app is actually opened
+  - merchant mode
+  - many UI/UX improvements/changes (some of more important ones: make seed offset and its role more obvious, better backup mechanism, time-lock warn, automatic node selection)
+- Work on documentation (this will be a significant task on its own, but the goal is to allow anybody to integrate monero no matter what language/framework they are using by using monero_c/monero.dart).
+- Fix issues that were made along the way
+  - Bytewords entering an infinite loop when incorrect text is passed in
+  - No compatibility with Feather / ANONERO in offline mode due to lack of CBOR encoding
+  - Not cross-platform QR scanner [^2]
+  - Bad UI on desktop (not that it's bad, it is just mobile-first)
+  - and more, if found when developing
+  - sending fixes to relevant peers and upstream
+## Milestones
+Given the nebulous nature of development, I would prefer my milestones to be time-based. I prpose a milestone completion and subsequent payout once every month (after services rendered).
+In addition to the above features mentioned in the scope of work, I propose an additional deliverable of a weekly report so my progress can be verified.
+# Payment
+I'm proposing to work for 20 hours/week for `40$/hour` at a rate of `~125,14$/XMR` (according to open prices between 2024-02-17 and 2024-03-01 (date of writing) via [CoinGecko](https://www.coingecko.com/en/coins/monero/historical_data)) for 12 weeks, summing up to a total of `~76,68` XMR split into 3 payments of `25,56` XMR every 4 weeks.
+At the end of each week, I'll comment a summary of what happened along the way and what tasks were done.
+[^1]: The library is there, it needs some love to be usable, cross platform and built in a reproducible fashion.
+[^2]: Camera isn't fun, especially when being cross-platform is a goal, but supporting it is critical for URQRs. This isn't a milestone on it's own, but a topic that I'll research, do some PoC and come up with a solution, especially because getting camera to work is one task, then we need to scan qr the codes (and be **very** fast at it), so this milestone is more of "explore the possibilities" and come up with a reasonable plan for future regarding cross-platform camera support.

+This may not seem as abnormal as I'd have liked. The title is what it is, but the proposal is intended to cover contributions to Monero proper. It was requested that I open a new MR instead of editing the [old one](https://repo.getmonero.org/monero-project/ccs-proposals/-/merge_requests/444).
+- 14xmr/mth includes 20-25hrs/wk on customer support, docs, site, ccs, assisting devs, and attempting to take over the world:
+  - 3xmr/mth work with core devs, community devs, researchers, and other contributors to test or advise on features, issues, community projects etc.
+  - 3xmr/mth #monero-support: Lead the support channel & provide hands on support to users
+  - 3xmr/mth #monero-docs: Maintain¹ (or help to maintain) monero-docs repo and/or assist plowsof, 321bob321 and others with content
+  - 2xmr/mth #monero-site: Maintain¹ (or help to maintain) monero-site repo and/or assist plowsof, hardenedsteel and others with content
+  - 2xmr/mth #monero-community: Assisting CCS proposers (and plowsof) with relations/logistics
+  - 1xmr/mth take over the world: dedicate time to dealing with "meta" stuff. There is quite a bit of unfinished business (on and off repo) that needs to be tackled
+  - donate to others
+The above amounts are estimates. Actual distribution may vary.
+¹ Maintain = handle merges

+Welcome ladies and gentleman, kids and pets.
+Lets skip the intro.
+  BasicSwapDEX is, as far as I know, Monero's only Bidirectional Atomic swap service, and the only one that allows swapping monero with coins not named Bitcoin (such as Litecoin). 
+  BasicSwapDEX has been mainnet for a while now, but is a beta / POC. With this CCS I hope empower and steward BasicSwapDex to production quality software within ~1 year. Some milestones are to be paid to ofrnxmr in advance. I'm also requesting that some funds be escrowed by the CCS Coordinator.
+##### M0/M1/M2 = accelerate work / probation.
+- M0 paid at funding. To be paid to ofrnxmr to distribute as follows:
+  - M0 = 80xmr to ofrnxmr to pay for bounties / extra help, and/or bonuses to backend/frontend devs
+  - M0/M1/M2 = 20xmr/month (60xmr/3months) to ofrnxmr
+  - M0/M1/M2 = 40xmr/160hrs (120xmr/3mths) to BasicSwap Team - Frontend
+  - M0/M1/M2 = 55xmr/160hrs (165xmr/3mths) to BasicSwap Team - Backend
+##### M3-O - Paid end of month 4
+  - 100xmr
+##### M3-F - Frontend GUI v3.0.0 - v5.0.0+
+- Paid start of month 4
+  - 240xmr earmarked for frontend development (paid out by ofrnxmr as work is completed, 40xmr/160hr)
+  - 80xmr to ofrnxmr to pay for bounties / extra help, and/or bonuses to frontend devs
+##### M3-B - Backend v0.13 - v0.15+
+- Paid start of month 4
+  - 330xmr earmarked for backend development (paid out by ofrnxmr as work is completed: 55xmr/160hr)
+  - 80xmr to ofrnxmr to pay for bounties / extra help, and/or bonuses to backend devs
+##### M4 - Delivery of 1.0
+- Paid after M3 is completed to satisfaction, and 1.0 is shipped 
+  - 80xmr for frontend dev(s)
+  - 110xmr for backend dev(s)
+##### M5 = Maintenance
+- Payout in Month 13 at the earliest, to be redistributed on a monthly basis 
+  - 8xmr to backend devs
+  - 8xmr to frontend devs
+  - 4xmr to ofrnxmr
+#### Scope (wherever technically possibly)
+- **_M0/M1/M2 = Catchup work. Begin preparing for M3 milestones._**
+  - [Some things yet to be completed](https://repo.getmonero.org/monero-project/ccs-proposals/-/merge_requests/457#note_24394)
+- **_M3-F - Frontend GUI v3.0.0 - v5.0.0+_**
+  - CEX-like UI and UX (aside from speed)
+    - Orderbook
+    - Market depth
+    - Order types ie. Market, limit, stop, trailing, profit taker
+  - Private orderbook UI
+  - Overall UI and UX updates
+    - Mobile friendly
+    - Better notifications
+    - Improve / simplify in progress and historical bid details
+  - Historical swap exports
+  - Drop _reliance_ on centralized price APIs
+  - Add wallet (rpc) functionality to the wallets themselves
+  - Ability to use external wallets to take offers
+  - Include new GUI interfaces to match new backend functionalities
+- **_M3-B - Backend v0.13 - v0.15+_**
+  - Secure the backend
+  - Better code reviews
+  - Fix and enhance user APIs
+  - Add provider / swapper APIs
+  - Web frontend APIs
+  - Enable swaps between incompatible coins. [Example: XMR <> FIRO]
+  - Integrations of atomic protocals such as those from BCH and ETH
+  - Disconnect SMSG from Particl blockchain
+  - Create and use a local price oracle
+  - Bridge orderbooks from other services such as Samourai 
+  - EVM wallet compatibility
+  - Necessary changes to enable frontend features
+- **_M4 - Delivery of 1.0_**
+  - M3-X Completed to satisfaction
+  - Ship 1.0 installation packages as (example), a Flatpak, appimage
+- **_M5 - 1yr Maintenance_**
+  - Addressing concerns in an efficient manner
+  - Continued improvement of the codebase
+The scope of work is quite large. You can follow Particl dev report (going back to January) for current, ongoing and planned work, which is ever evolving.
+Should any part of this CCS fail, I may choose to redirect remaining funds to fork the project or to acquire devs willing/able to complete it.
+In the event of total failure, all unused funds will be donated to a 2/3 multisig (The elusive "jetfund") with the COMMUNITY Coordinator and 1 other [TBD] party, to be used **as the community decides**....Though, im ofrnxmr. I'm not _fill in name of scammer_. I will see this through to completion.
+##### Coverage
+- M0/M1/M2 = Month 0-3
+- M3-O = Month 4-12
+- M3-X = Month 4 'til Completion of M3-X milestones (target = ~6 months)
+- M4 = Completion of M3-X milestones til the later of completion of M4 or Month 13
+- M5 = 12 Months. Earliest payouts may begin is the later of completion of M4 or Month 13
+**This CCS allows the Monero Community to lead the space to a goal of having a FOSS, trustless, unregulatable, P2P, decentralized, liquid economy, with _0 platform fees, 0 dev taxes_ and _0 targets_.**
+**I would hope (and assume) that non-monero communities who are under constant threat for having cypherpunk ideals (_cough_ BTC, BCH, ETH, and whoever else shares our ideals) will also support and donate to this endeavor.**

+# Who?
+Hello, plowsof here, I show up and try to be helpful. My [previous proposal](https://ccs.getmonero.org/proposals/plowsof-com-rel.html) happened, i would like to make it happen again, and do more of the same things.
+# What?
+- Gather consensus for CCS proposals. (feedback from GitLab/IRC/Reddit).
+- Organise bi-weekly meetings to discuss proposals / current events (more if necessary).
+- Provide decisions in 1 month or less (Yes/No to being funded or if something has to be changed with the proposal to satisfy our community).
+- Be impartial when communicating with CCS proposers - everyone gets a fair shake.
+- Checking up on the WIP list to find / fix problems early (e.g. payments overdue or proposers AWOL).
+    - It has recently came to my attention that there is a seldom enforced CCS rule where "If it's not funded or finished by a certain time, the funds can be released to other proposals or the General Fund.. This keeps things moving along in a timely fashion.", one of my tasks will be to gather support for enforcing this rule where applicable.
+- Take responsibility for the entire CCS process - It's my fault when 'things go wrong'.
+- Someone who is online for several hours a day / 7 days a week that knows what's going on.
+- Act as a liaison to Core - keep them informed of whats happening / poke them when required / handle their requests.
+    - As part of this CCS, you will also be sponsoring my work when quality assurance testing new features/bug fixes each release cycle in the GUI, CLI, and RPC wallets.
+    - And Getmonero.org contributions.
+- Consultancy before / during / after the idea stage.
+# Funding
+20hr/week - 40 eur/hr with XMR at 145EUR (MA20 @ Kraken) gives 72 but i like 69 better so 23 XMR/milestone bringing the total requested amount to 69XMR. Maximum of 1 milestone can be claimed per month. Price fluctuation after moving to funding will have no effect.
+Consider this proposal expired in the event of my untimely death / unheard of for >5 months / have not claimed all payouts in 12 months. If expired - all remaining unclaimed funds are to be donated to other CCS proposals.

+### Deadline update: July 1, 2025
+Prior to the deadline, the proposer MUST provide regular updates on their progress as per the CCS rules.
+If the provided updates/progress (or lack thereof) is unsatisfactory, all remaining funds **can be** relinquished either before or after the deadline.
+The community will then seek another person/team to take over. If this cannot be accomplished within a reasonable timeframe, the funds will be repurposed or reallocated to a similar proposal (subject to community consensus).
+# Who
+ANONERO project, creators of the security & privacy focused Monero wallets ANON & NERO.
+# What
+Migrating our codebase to Android's native language Kotlin with Jetpack Compose UI. 
+When we first started the project, we bootstrapped development by using a combination of xmrwallet's Java code and Flutter. This allowed for fast interations and great UI performance, but as the app grew with more advanced features, the Native <> Java <> Flutter layers proved to be a bottleneck.
+Now that we have a working Proof of Concept alpha wallet, and are much more familiar with the Monero codebase, we've decided to move the app to a new framework that's better suited to our feature set. This will give us a solid, stable codebase and make future developement much easier.
+As part of our commitment to privacy & security and using the latest features, ANONERO has contributed to Monero, directly and indirectly, in various ways:
+ 1) First fully airgapped DIY HWW cold storage solution: https://monero.town/post/223593
+ 2) First working implementation of background sync via view-keys
+ 3) Helped identify, debug, and fix issue where Polyseed was failing to build on 32-bit Android: https://github.com/tevador/polyseed/issues/5
+ 4) Helped identify, debug, and test fix for the DNS leak when using onion nodes: https://github.com/monero-project/monero/pull/8849
+ 5) Helped discover bug where key images weren't being passed by signed tx payload: https://github.com/monero-project/monero/pull/9049
+ 6) Discovered background sync bug which caused all cached blocks to be erased: https://github.com/monero-project/monero/pull/8619#issuecomment-1808920063
+ 7) Helped test tobtoht's upcoming [Polyseed](https://github.com/tevador/polyseed) patch to monero core
+ 8) Worked with tobtoht to improve offline-signing UX
+We'll continue to adopt and test new features and upstream fixes to core if/when they arise during the CCS.
+# Proposal
+Instead of guesstimating work hours and giving an hourly rate, we are asking for an amount that will guarantee funding for the entire wallet rewrite. 
+Monerujo's Sidekick project raised 181.15 XMR, and seeing as we addressed the community's concerns by shipping the feature fully airgapped using animated QR codes, we are asking the community to match that amount, plus 10% for misc things like hosting, documentation, website improvement etc for a total of 199.265 XMR.  
+For the past year and a half we relied on our small community to help fund us, and now that we've proven we can deliver, we are requesting 20% upfront to start development:
+- Milestone 1:  39.853 XMR (20%) paid upfront upon funding
+- Milestone 2:  79.706 XMR (40%) paid upon release of first test build (corresponding to v0.5)
+- Milestone 3:  79.706 XMR (40%) paid upon final feature-complete release
+Progress will be posted on our repo http://git.anonero.io (onion redirect) and we will begin open testing as soon as we can.
+CCS will expire one year from date of first payout and funds can be send to the General Fund.

+# Who, what, when, where?
+Hi, I'm Diego "rehrar" Salazar. I run [Cypher Stack](https://cypherstack.com), and me and my team make [Stack Wallet](https://stackwallet.com). I also did work for the core team once upon a time.
+I was recently approached my luigi, of the current core team about retaking on some of my old duties. There's a lot of opportunity for improvement in the non-dev areas of the project, and not always enough hands to get it done. It was agreed upon that, were this to happen, this would be done through the CCS rather than through Core as before. This moves me from being accountable to core, to accountable to the community.
+A quick summary of what I'd be working on (requested by luigi):
+- Presiding over and helping along a Monero Website Workgroup to merge requests, keep it up to date, and do odds and ends of design and development
+- Facilitating moderator relationships and fostering community in relevant social platforms
+- Being a leader in the Monero Community workgroup and helping that along as needed
+- Keeping a finger on the "pulse of the community" in the various chat rooms and platforms (Telegram, Discord, IRC, Matrix, Reddit, etc.)
+- Assisting plowsof as needed in CCS work (working under him for various tasks if needed)
+- Aiding and assisting in event work as needed
+- Utilizing my "soft skills" as needed elsewhere on the project.
+# Why?
+There's lots of non-dev stuff to do, and not so many people to do it. I am capable and willing.
+# How long? How much?
+75 XMR for three months for half time work. Possibility of renewal depending on community sentiment.
+# Deliverables
+I will do all of the above in the beginning section, and give a monthly report to the community on what's been done, and tasks accomplished. The primary metric I will rate myself on though, is how big of a help I am to luigi in terms of taking workload off of his shoulders.
+# COI
+My company Cypher Stack does occassional work for Monero in the form of the following:
+- Dan "pigeons" Miller who helps with infrastructure work is employed by Cypher Stack. We typically do anywhere from 5-10 hours a month for Monero here. We are currently doing this work pro bono.
+- Cypher Stack's cryptographer, Aaron Feickert, does occassional research work for Monero. This is funded either by the CCS, or the new Research Fund that has been funded by the CCS.
+- I own and operate Stack Wallet, an open-source, multicoin wallet, of which Monero is supported.
+- I and all of my employees do occassional work for other clients, many of them in the privacy or crypto sphere. Several of them privacy coins themselves.

+# What
+I will maintain Revuo Monero (https://www.revuo-xmr.com/) for the next 3 months (2024 Q3): July, August and September. There is a chance I may skip one week to tend to real life issues, in such case, next issue will just cover 2 weeks instead of 1.
+Tasks:
+- Daily/weekly: search, curate, structure and post new reports/stories.
+- As Needed: outreach (engage with the community on Matrix, XMPP, emails).
+- As Needed: make sure the website is live and working as expected (server maintenance, billing, etc.)
+# Who
+rottenwheel, I joined the Monero community some time in 2017 by jumping into IRC, attending some Workgroup meetings, volunteering at the Monero village at DEFCON 28 in 2019 (https://redlib.zaggy.nl/r/Monero/comments/cqegma/monero_village_defcon_2019_report/), participating in community events and being involved with other community-driven, smaller projects.
+As a proof of work for this specific proposal, I have, since January 2022 until now, written almost 200 issues, 195 of which were published in current Revuo's self-hosted website. That does not take into account the following enhancements.
+Up to this point, all efforts behind Revuo Monero's comeback after Diego "rehrar" Salazar was let go and Revuo Monero's publication was paused for a few months, include but are not limited to:
+- Light/dark theme with a toggle button (mostly in CSS/HTML, minimizing the reliance in JavaScript as much as possible; site loads everything just fine in Tor browser with strict security mode on.)
+- Support and Source Code sections added.
+- RSS and Support icons.
+- Google fonts removed.
+- Twitter and Nostr profiles set up and posting new issues every week automatically. Twitter: https://nitter.poast.org/revuoxmr; Nostr: https://primal.net/p/npub1tn8spk9zhxrctg2qym3gj8r7eq2wk6z3phrl8304wc54vt9qam4qvzw6jx
+# Proposal
+I will publish weekly issues (4 per month) at a rate of $100 / issue. At $157.5 / XMR this makes 8 XMR (~7.6++) (100 * 4 * 3 = $1200) to be split in 3 monthly milestones. Rounding current 7.6++ XMR to 8 XMR to cover for price votatility between Work In Progress phase and progressive milestone(s) payouts.

+**New**: Revuo Calc, a moner.ooo fork that had its original code shrunk by half (# of total lines), improved upon and it offers 2 versions, adjusted according visitor's browser settings: JavaScript-free front and JavaScript-friendly front; think of Tor users and clearnet users.
