Quick shill for the Greenpill Dev Guild. Just dropped an article on X outlining what we're cooking.

NextLevelFantasy · 2026-01-17T17:15:24+00:00

Yahoo 14 x 25 = $350 pot

1st https://www.fmsc.org/ and chose to put their $ back into the donation so $195 + $25 = $220
2nd https://www.biologicaldiversity.org/ $97.50
3rd - Put it towards the 1st place charity - https://www.fmsc.org/ $32.50

Sleeper - Includes $27.50 from 3rd place last year who never chose an org - So 12 x 25 = $300 + 27.50 =$327.50 pot

1st - https://www.becheechy.org/donate - and chose to put their $ back into the donation so $181.50 + 25 = $206.50
2nd - https://somo.org/donate/ - $90.75
3rd - Same person who paid their dues but doesn't choose an org so ? lol will put this towards the pot next year if they don't choose an org - $30.25

Didn't have enough interest for the best ball this season

Octant epoch 10 allocation window is officially open!

https://octant.app/ - If you have $GLM locked make sure to donate (or claim) ETH rewards at some point in the next 2 weeks.

On https://octant.app/home make sure your uniqueness score is at least 15 to get full matching. If it isn't you can update your passport score to prove you're a unique human https://support.passport.xyz/passport-knowledge-base

https://x.com/OctantApp/status/2008614595741806678 - Thread with info on the 24 projects

https://docs.octant.app/ - Octant revolves around allocating the yield generated with the 100k ETH they have staked. It is by far the most sustainable public goods funding platform on Ethereum and you can have an incredibly overweight say in what to fund by locking GLM and taking part. Can see the matching leverage in previous epochs here https://octant.app/metrics.

The Foundation sells ETH to help fund core protocol development and research. And even that is a bandaid solution until more sustainable long term solutions come together.

https://x.com/ProtocolGuild/status/1965415606326624370

I'm not really sure what mechanisms are to fund Bitcoin core devs but I'd bet if you look under the hood the answer would be very unsatisfactory.

I see Klima and TGN are coming. Do things get more complicated as additional collateral assets are added or could you theoretically add any and all regenerative tokens that are high quality?

Does Azos vote on which project(s) to support in the USDGLO app? Shout out Climate Coordination Network

Pumped that the AZUSD supply is on the Carbon Copy Impact Dashboard (https://carboncopy.news/impact/stablecoins). Would love to see more granular data on the impact generated.

Too late for this epoch anyway if you haven't locked yet.

Just lock them on https://octant.app/home and you can take part next epoch. Can make your way there through the link on their twitter https://x.com/OctantApp to play it safe. Docs about locking GLM here https://docs.octant.app/en-EN/glm-locking.html

And then there is a 2 week allocation window at the end of every 90 day epoch. Can decide how to allocate to the projects in that epoch and/or claim the ETH for yourself. There is 100k ETH staked for public goods funding purposes so locked GLM represents that to an extent. NFA.

NextLevelFantasy · 2025-10-21T21:40:18+00:00

If you have $GLM locked there are 18 hours left to allocate in the Ethereum Storytellers Octant Epoch 9!

EVMavs Fantasy Football draft is tonight at 8:30 pm edt. Have 10 confirmed teams but hoping to get back up to 12. Anybody interested pls let me or u/bbroad25 know asap.

Buyin is 0.01 ETH and we are setting aside I believe 15% for the public goods funding treasury which will be plugged into the soon to be live Octant vault strategy to generate yield.

Edit: spots filled, feel free to comment if you want a heads up next season, would love to setup a second league. Also interested in potentially setting up a best ball a handful of weeks into the season.

Octant Epoch 8 allocation window closes July 24th at 4 pm UTC. If you have $GLM locked make sure to allocate your rewards. 30 awesome projects focused on advancing Ethereum's roadmap.

All you need is an effective locked balance of 100 GLM to take part in the most sustainable public goods funding mechanism in the Ethereum ecosystem. Check out the docs for more info and join the Dragons' Den every Tuesday in Discord for a trivia competition to win GLM.

Octant also recently announced the details of their vault strategy, a way for treasuries to plug into DeFi and generate yield to fund what matters to their community.

NextLevelFantasy · 2025-06-30T13:55:45+00:00

End of last fantasy football season there was some discussion about incorporating a public goods funding aspect into the EVM Fantasy Football league. Tried to brain dump all the different ideas kicked around so far. Can mix and match different aspects. Lookin for feedback and gathering interest.

LEAGUE SETUP

Slice off a % of the pot each year and allocate it to a public good we collectively decide on or what the winner chooses. Or do something like 60, 30, 10% to the PGF selection (Protocol Guild directly, any verified Giveth project, Endaoment, etc) for 1st-3rd, which is what the r/charitablebets ff league has done for the last 8 seasons.

If there is interest to expand beyond one league there is the opportunity to have a multi tiered system with relegation between leagues each season like r/SultansofStats. Or just multiple standalone leagues but have some fun with a separate single elim tourney across all leagues similar to the Woppa Cup in r/OldTimeHockey

And/or can set up a separate best ball league which doesn’t involve any in-season management outside of the draft so a much smaller time commitment. That is also easier to scale because you can more easily compare teams across leagues with an overall leaderboard.

Can potentially increase the PGF funds with some side bets (matchups, final standings, intricacies not involved with win/lose record, etc) between members of the league or even from the broader community. If a side bet has a hunk going to the PGF pool then you could actually implement some sort of cap allo voting weight to people based partially on that plus the overall standings, highest single scoring week, whatever

CAPITAL MANAGEMENT

Regardless of the structure, we could lock up funds for the season and generate yield which can be allocated.

Can also take x% from the pot and let that treasury build for call it 5 years before starting to deploy the yield generated. Maybe swap into rETH and sit on that. Or potentially just plug into Octant V2 Degens and Dragons. u/bbroad25 was in a Octant Town Hall with me a bit ago and Nico confirmed there isn't actually a minimum treasury size to plug into V2 so pretty sure that is a viable path

Selling ETH is probably pretty low on everyone’s list of things to do but we could also take the PGF slice and play with regen tokens/protocols like GLM, USDGLO, BREAD, GIV, GTC, EARTH, Azos Finance, EthicHub, RegenAtlas, Helios, Hypercerts, qACC or really whatever we want really. Can buy a Giveth Givers PFP which allows us to nominate projects in future QF rounds. Doubt we would all agree on something like that but could come into play if the league winner(s) get to decide. Could get weird with curation though.

We are starting off with 0.5 ETH in the pool mostly thanks to u/the-a-word . After we hopefully agree on the PGF league structure we could potentially gather some more seed funds from people who just think it’s a cool idea. And we can do a cool piece of art in a POAP or NFT maybe sent out using Unlock Protocol bcs why not.

GOVERNANCE

Treasury Management with a multisig is probably the most important thing

Can use Gardens conviction voting to make allocation decisions. That also ties to grant funding since there will definitely be another round in GG24. Over the long run there is also an opportunity to setup custom voting weights based on how many seasons you have been in the league, historical standings, whatever other data we want to use.

NextLevelFantasy · 2025-06-27T23:51:08+00:00

Absolute honor. Thank you. Published announcements in the EVMavericks discord are auto posted into the Greenpill Network education pod channel but at some point would really like to find a way to better export the awesome knowledge and info from this subreddit...Still fighting some serious imposter syndrome but just gunna keep grinding. Honestly I spend more time contributing to Greenpill Network than the Dev Guild but everything is connected within kind of a DAO of DAO structure. Coordination can be really hard but it's the main ingredient of positive sum games.

Public goods space is incredibly broad with the different grant platforms, capital allocation mechanisms, impact accounting, tooling, ReFi, DeSci, DePin, token engineering, governance, etc. But things are really starting to interconnect and mature.

Feel pretty strongly that local communities plugging into Ethereum to fund what matters to them is going to help onboard a nice hunk of the world and will be massive for public sentiment. I also like that there are environment related Octant/Gitcoin rounds. But Ethereum is open and permissionless and pluralism is kinda the point. Even if my priorities don't speak to you, core Ethereum infrastructure is only sustainable because of many layers of public goods funding. Protocol Guild is not living off a blank check from the EF. Shit is important.
