ethglobal-sf-2024

Note

This project was created during the ETHGlobal SF 2024 hackathon.

AutoRF is retro funding made simple. Project impact metrics are regularly indexed, which is used to configure on-chain splits contracts to reward projects over regular settlement periods. We launched “The Grinder’s Fund”, to reward the hardest working projects at ETHGlobal SF.

How it's made

The application consists of 4 major components:

  • Web Application
  • AutoRF SDK
  • Server-side Cron Jobs
  • OnChain Funding Contracts

Web Application

The application is built with Next.js and Supabase. Users authenticate via GitHub OAuth, which allows them to verify their permissions for committing to repositories.

Within the app, users can manage funding pools by creating new ones, editing existing ones, or joining current pools to track their progress.

We also implemented a referral link system to facilitate project promotion and increase sign-ups for funding pools.

AutoRF SDK

We created a JavaScript package to handle tasks related to funding pools, such as:

  • Minting project registration attestations on-chain with the Sign protocol
  • Gathering data needed to calculate a project's impact metrics
  • Creating a funding pool using 0xSplits contracts
  • Setting the split contract weights based on project impact
  • Allowing funding distribution for a specific period

Server-side Cron Jobs

We have a server-side cron job that runs every week to calculate the impact metrics of each project, using our SDK. The metrics are then used to update the split contract weights for each project in the funding pool.

OnChain Funding Contracts

We use 0xSplits contracts for funds custody and distribution. We plan to support other money streaming protocols in the future, such as Drips and Superfluid.
