This is a follow-up to Calurduran’s previous Governance Facilitation application in Round 2 of the grant process. The original grant was awarded $4,700 out of the requested $7,000. After discussions between the GMC and the recipient, the GMC has made the decision to fully fund the original requested amount. This revision reflects the GMC’s commitment to supporting governance work.

How did the project or work for which the retrospective award would be given help people looking to stake ETH for rETH?
This answer is going to be the same for many of these questions. Valdorff’s work in this area has helped ensure that the RPIP process is a meaningful and successful one, and that the creation of our Management Committees has gone from idea to practice. Both of those factors have been important in the success of the protocol and of RP’s staking product.
