What is CascadeFund?
Visual representations coming soon.
Collaboration Platform
CascadeFund is a new layer on top of an existing GitHub repository. It doesn't replace GitHub; instead, it adds a structured interface that helps users, contributors, and maintainers interact around issues and patches in a predictable way. With aim to run sustainable open-source projects.
Standardized Work Cycle
All projects on CascadeFund follow the same formal collaboration cycle: users open issues, contributors submit patches, maintainers review, merge, or release. Then, every participant receives achievement coins.
Self-checking todo list
Additionally, due to standardized work cycle for projects, we added a self-checking todo list. On the web app, self-checking todo tasks are shown inside a mini-player. 'Play'ing it will auto-navigate, and optionally may suggest solutions from AI agents.
Proof of Traction
What are the achievement coins? Achievement coins are project's proof of traction, and user's proof of contribution. We implemented them on blockchain as non-tradeable tokens attached to git commits, and cascadefund issues.
Good Paywall
What makes achievment coins great? Users. Only users can assign achievement coins for the issues. But to get the assigning rights, user needs to pass a paywall: donate to the maintainer, and his libraries, and receive equaivalent issue-assigning right. Donation, doesn't guarantee maintainer to reply, instead, it opens up for a networking, and collaboration with the maintainer whom he directed. If both parties agreed the topic is closed, then achievement coins are distributed to everyone, including the user himself, acting as the proof of contribution.
How to get help with branding and monetization?
Here, the achivements are awarded for the resolved issues and patches to all participants. We represent them as project coins.
These coins highlight everyone's contribution, boosts project trust, user engagement, and acts as proof of traction.
