Polkadot Fast-Grants Bounty Curator Candidacy
Hey Everyone!
The Polkadot Fast-Grants Bounty (https://polkadot.polkassembly.io/bounty/63) was recently approved. This referendum now formally puts forward the curators for the bounty. These are the same curators who have been involved since the beginning of this process, and whose experience has been detailed in the original bounty documents.
As a quick reminder, the purpose of the Fast-Grants bounty is to fund the fast-grants programme for early-stage builders on Polkadot. This referendum is the formal proposal for the curators of this bounty.
In summary, the curators have deep, sector-specific experience across the Polkadot and builder ecosystems, and are strongly positioned to steward this bounty. The multisig will be a 3 out of 5:
- Otar Shakarishvili (Project Advisor and Governance Specialist at JUST Open Source, ex-Parity Project Manager)
- Sacha Lansky (Developer Relations at WebZero, ex-Parity Engineering)
- Flavio Bianchi (Polimec Foundation Council Member, Polimec Marketing and BD)
- Phil Kwok (Co-Founder of EasyA and the EasyA x Polkadot University)
- Dom Kwok (Co-Founder of EasyA and the EasyA x Polkadot University)
For the full context and bios of our curators, we have put together the full Bounty Curator Candidacy Proposal document.
We already have a strong pipeline of talent ready for the Fast-Grants Bounty, so are looking forward to getting the bounty full operational!

Dear Proposer,
Thank you for your proposal. Our first vote on this proposal is AYE.
The Medium Spender track requires 50% quorum and simple majority of non-abstain voters according to our voting policy. This proposal has received six aye and one nay votes from ten members. Below is a summary of our members' comments:
The majority of voters expressed support for the initiative to provide grants for projects within the Polkadot ecosystem, highlighting the positive role of curators in fostering new builders. While some acknowledged concerns about the representation of the Easy-A program among curators, they ultimately accepted the proposal, citing prior community support and the importance of moving forward. A few voters called for greater independence in the curator selection, but most remained optimistic about the potential benefits of the initiative.
