Traditional Project Targeting

Gitcoin historically frames projects as discrete initiatives with specific outcomes:

Funding Characteristics:

  • Defined project scope
  • Measurable deliverables
  • Quadratic funding mechanisms
  • Community-driven selection processes

Allo Protocol's Project Framing
