Hi @TropicalDog17
After the initial review of your proposal, we have the following questions:

• Can you list the link to PRs on your previous contribution to the relevant areas of the grant you are applying for (i.e. previous contribution to consensus, etc)?
• Based on your proposal, how many hours per week is your team going to spend working on the grant (estimate is sufficient)?
  Thank you for your response,

[TropicalDog17]

Thank you for reviewing our proposal @VT-Cosmos.

Regarding your first question:

Here are links to some of our previous contributions relevant to the areas of the grant we're applying for:

1. Consensus-related work:

   • CometBFT PR #2792
   • Celestia Core PR #1321

2. Core protocol development:

   • Reth PR #9044
   • Cosmos SDK PR #20161
   • Cosmos SDK PR #20354
   • Cosmos SDK PR #20404

3. Blockchain infrastructure:

   • Astra Protocol commits
   • Osmosis Fee Abstraction commits - Tuan Tran
   • Osmosis Fee Abstraction - Tien Nguyen)
   • IBC-Go PRs by Tuan Tran
   • Composable Cosmos PRs by hoank101
   • BeaconKit PRs by Tuan Tran
   • BeaconKit PRss by Khanh Hoa

We want to note that our team members were previously employed by Notional (https://github.com/notional-labs), though we have since concluded our contracts there. During our time with Notional and in other roles, we've gained valuable experience working on various blockchain issues. While our presence in the open source ecosystem is not quite extensive, we have significant experience in software engineering.

For a more comprehensive review of our background and expertise, we have sent our CVs to your email(grants@allinbits.com).

About the second question:

We estimate that each team member will dedicate approximately 20 hours per week to the grant work. However, this can be adjusted based on the grant size and workload. We're flexible and committed to allocating the necessary time to ensure successful completion of the project.

Please let us know if you need any further information or clarification.

Thank you.
