I haven’t seen a single grant system in the crypto space that was worthwhile.
Gitcoin is arguably the closest to working but at least it’s obvious that it’s a popularity contest there.
All the corporate controlled grants are super arbitrary, unorganized, opaque and you don't even know who you are selling to.
And all the community ones are penny pinched popularity contests where everyone still imagines that specialized devs from Malaysia will work at low rates.
