To start of the proposal discussion, below are some of my thoughts about this proposal, with some relevant comments also in the related proposal 3618757149:

It would be interesting to hear how these deliverables contribute towards the user-friendly, chain…

AlgoKit-Core Mobile SDKs | June 2026 release (proposal #3618757149)

Thank you for your continued innovation on multiple fronts!
To start of the proposal discussion, below are some of my thoughts:

Within the Council we have been discussing that the proposal should be open-sourced for some time (e.g. min. 2 months) before being eligible for a grant, in order to en…

Wormhole NTT Contracts [3546124436]

Thank you for trying to clarify the situation before going to the vote and for confirming Folks xALGO would abstain in case of a vote.
In light of no new information, I do not think the Council’s majority opinion on T&C compliance or individuals’ support for the proposal has changed.

Is there a real funding pathway for early stage Algorand builders; and would the community be interested in native crowdfunding?

Please correct me if my understanding of Sprout is wrong, bit it sounds like a launchpad. IMO, these have not yet found PMF in combination with blockchain. The problem is what are the crowdfunders really buying and how they can trust that milestones have really been hit?
Typically, blockchain launc…

Stocks/bonds (RWA) on Algorand?

Great to see new builders joining Algorand!
Regarding assets, there are indeed not many. Some you could look into are: GOLD (246516580) and SILVER (246519683) by Meld, and fractions of real estate from Lofty. You could also bridge any token from/to another chain to Algorand via e.g. Wormhole’s NTT …

Questions on xGov Priority Areas and Impact Evaluation

In this case, I don’t think that would be a problem. Just submit individual ones to the Electric Capital and that should be it.
You can still open a thread before creating the proposal.
xGov process was initially meant as such - first create a proposal thread, people discuss it, then create the on…

AF Wallet Watcher: Proposal Watcher & Proposal Summaries Enhancement (Proposal #: 3599298458)

Please note first again that I expressed only my opinion. There is no standard. Every proposal can make whatever ask and is evaluated on a case-by-case basis by the xGovs.
That said, even the 25k ALGO ask IMO is too much for the relatively small updates and the produced traction.

Open-Source TraitSwap & LootBox Template for Algorand NFT Projects

@famverse Did you submit your repo to Electric Capital? I can’t find it. Note that this is one of T&C requirements.

Questions on xGov Priority Areas and Impact Evaluation

I do agree that xGov program could benefit from more clarity on its objectives. But IMO, these are simply to support innovation that increases usage of Algorand.
Defining it in more detail would be difficult in my opinion, as usage metrics can be manipulated and their relevant type varies greatly d…

Wormhole NTT Contracts [3546124436]

Thanks for considering submitting another proposal.
Based on the description, I do not directly see a problem / do not fully understand the situation. Is the ownership of all the submodules with you and/or you have the rights to use them?
If that is the case, I do not see a reason why a joint prop…

Wormhole NTT Contracts [3546124436]

While I understand that logic, the xGov budget is denominated in ALGO, which is why IMO it is necessary to consider the ALGO amount as well when evaluating proposals.

AF Wallet Watcher: Proposal Watcher & Proposal Summaries Enhancement (Proposal #: 3599298458)

@Astoc1993 thank you for the proposal related to the xGov program.
While I appreciate the effort to try to bring more eyes to the xGov program this way, IMO the ask size is high w.r.t. traction and required effort to update the previously funded proposal, in particular considering the ask size for …

Wormhole NTT Contracts [3546124436]

@gid thank you for further engaging with the Council.
Note that the following is just my personal opinion on the situation.
If it were confirmed that Folks does have the IP rights and that it meets the xGov program T&Cs, I personally would still not support the proposal based on the current availa…

Questions on xGov Priority Areas and Impact Evaluation

Thank you for your proposal!
Blockchain explorers are important for users and the ecosystem.
However, they typically have issues with their sustainability.
Do you have any ideas how you could make your explorer sustainable on the long-term?
The explorer space on Algorand is quite competitive and…

Questions on xGov Priority Areas and Impact Evaluation

Thanks for these modifications. Now the proposal seems more in line with T&Cs.
Would you mind providing some metrics on the usage these two smart contracts have seen?
Without these, it is difficult to judge if the claimed unique fee structure provided sufficient benefit w.r.t. the ask, especially …

Questions on xGov Priority Areas and Impact Evaluation

Thanks for the follow-up! Would you mind providing some additional context for the funding request in regard to the total amount being asked?
Also, could you specify whether this is an initial ask or if there are plans for future funding?

Confío: Web2-to-Algorand Consumer Onboarding Infrastructure (LATAM)

Thanks for this great update! Would you mind sharing additionally some of the relevant transactions that can be independently verified on-chain?

Connecting Post-Quantum accounts to xGov/Lora website using Liquid Auth and Use Wallet v4 (Proposal #3450330087)

@michaeltchuang Would you mind clarifying for which repos do the metrics apply to?
Did you see any use beyond the conducted test?

Algoosh - non-custodial, escrow-based commerce protocol

@Victoria Thank you for your proactiveness and openness for feedback!
IMO, the project did meet the program requirements once it was open-sourced. There might have been confusion among the Council as the project initially promised to become open source after approval (in which case I would also dee…

Open-Sourcing Cosmic Champs (xGov proposal 3461960394)

Open-sourcing it under MIT will provide a great benefit for the ecosystem!
Thank you for your transparency regarding your role in the xGov.

Pact Fi: Open Source Real Time Farming contracts w/ Multiple ASA payouts

Thanks for another proposal!
The farm contracts have definitely shown great traction.
I only have one comment - which is the same as for the last proposal.
Are there any tests or documentation (e.g. deployment instructions) available?
This would make the proposal more inline with program’s T&Cs …
