This proposal requests:
Total Requested: $199.90 USD
From September 2023 to June 2025, I personally paid monthly for IPFS bandwidth, pinning, and gateway services used across both Skatehive and Gnars platforms. (https://ipfs.skatehive.app)
(That is how we host gnars droposal videos, images for snapshot, images for proposals, as Gnars does not have a dedicated gateway, skatehive borrowed its own)
This is an essential service widely used by gnars community that makes or videos load as fast as it can be.
Traffic analysis shows that:
gnars.com, localhost dev environments, and shared bandwidth)
$595.90 / 22 = $27.08The funds for this proposal comes from USDGLO obtained by Gnars DAO through its Giveth quadratic funding campaigns, aligning with public goods support and decentralized media sustainability.
Caching strategies and code improvements are being put in place so we can reduce the max we can those ipfs costs, and I have started a conversation with builder to see if we can share the same ipfs gateway they are using after Zora migration they had, if thats the case, the remaining GLO would be returned to the treasure in form of USDC.
Other devs are invited to review and propose even more efficient solutions too, skatehive devs are doing their best to make gnars.com experience the best with the human and tech resources we have :)
PS: I am requesting all the 206 USDGLO cause I can swap the rest and send back as usdc to the treasure :)
Keep it Gnarly ⌐◨-◨
