Overview Of The Bounty

Hello Pham,

I am Lucia, the core contributor to the Phala Network community from the Phala team. I am here to apply for the new round of bounty from Khala Treasury to further build the Phala community.

The Phala community focused on expanding a global community in the second half of the year. This bounty is used to cover community spending from July 2021 to December 2021, including community activity rewards, community contributor rewards, community mods rewards, developer rewards. To increase community activity and transparency, we have held a number of community events, such as online AMA, monthly community meetings, local offline meetings, and technology sharing sessions.

Problem Statement:

  1. Discover outstanding contributors in the community and give them generous rewards to encourage everyone to continue to make outstanding contributions to the community.
  2. Incentives for event/activity participants of Phala community activities. During the expansion of the Phala community, all kinds of community activities will be organized to activate the community participation and improve community engagement.
