  • A new GRIN donation address, https://council-donations.yeastplume.org was set up in the period, managed by yeastplume, but with the seed backed up for redundancy. All according to relevant governance meeting decision. So far, no ETH donation or ZEC donation addresses have been set up.
  • Majority of GRIN received in the period (3,125) stemmed from a donation by SparkPool.
  • Majority of BTC received in the period (1.11) stemmed from monthly donations by Poloniex.
  • All spend in the period, both GRIN & BTC, was done as donation to Yeastplume for their work on the project.

$620,477.83

Inaccessible funds

Having had no news from Ignotus during the quarter, we no longer expect these funds to be recoverable, and instead consider them lost permanently. There possibility of course remains that Ignotus returns to the project, which could lead to these funds being recovered. In that case it will be considered new income at the time.

Currency Amount Wallet address(es)
GRIN 7120.367203 https://donations.grin-tech.org
ZEC 5.8 t1QGYYXan3HHEuiPEfccKnUuWEP4CsVvPA5

Comments

  • The biggest reason for the drop in disposable funds was due to the negative movements in the USD/BTC exchange rate during the period.
  • Nevertheless, in the period, Grin spent roughly the equivalent of twice the amount of funds that were received by donations.
  • As per above, the inaccessible funds are now considered lost. Measures have been taken to reduce the risk of this happening again to the project.
  • It was generally considered a quarter of low activity, both in terms of income and spending.
