Who

selsta, I have been contributing to monero since around 2018 with over 470 merged commits. Here is a list of my previous work:

• CLI contributions: https://github.com/monero-project/monero/pulls?q=is%3Apr+author%3Aselsta
• GUI contributions: https://github.com/monero-project/monero-gui/pulls?q=is%3Apr+author%3Aselsta
• Previous CCS: https://ccs.getmonero.org/proposals/selsta-2.html

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

Proposal

Work for 30 hours per week over the next 3 months (from mid-October to mid-December) at a rate of 45€ / hour. At 216€ / XMR (14 day EMA) this makes 75 XMR.
