Hypercerts are the web3 standard to account for impactful work, tracking financial and non-financial contributions. \n\n# Where are we headed\nImagine a world where positive impact was one of the most highly valued creations in our society; where entrepreneurs who pursued high-uncertainty, high-upside moonshots to radically improve society were rewarded directly for that impact; where becoming a patron of impactful causes was something people aspired to and displayed proudly; and where the methods used to evaluate impact were credible, transparent, and independently verifiable. \n\nThat world might seem a distance away, but it\u2019s one we can build towards. Specifically we\u2019d like to see more impact markets, retroactive funding and innovation in the way we fund public goods. In order for this to occur, we need protocols to track and fund impact.\n\n# What are hypercerts? \nA single hypercert is a semi-fungible token that accounts for work that\u2019s intended to be impactful, and whose ownership can be fractionalized and even transferred under specific conditions. Each hypercert represents a unique impact claim capturing the following basic information:\n- Who: Set of contributors\n- What: Scope of work\n- When: Time of work\n\n\n## Avoiding silos \u2013 interconnected funding system\nAs an extension of ERC 1155 semi-fungible tokens, hypercerts create a single, open, shared, and decentralized database for funding mechanisms. This database avoids the creation of new funding silos, as hypercerts can be integrated into any existing funding platform, thereby creating an interconnected funding ecosystem.\n\n## Selling impact \u2013 moving beyond donation\nWhile hypercerts may be useful for any funding mechanism, they\u2019re particularly valuable for retroactive funding as they provide baseline invariant guarantees that impact claims will not be forgotten. Projects create and sell impact, building financially sustainable and scalable revenue models. With hypercerts, we move beyond donations.\n\n## Certifying impact \u2013 open evaluation system\nCertifying impact is a process, and it should be an open and dynamic one. Hence, with hypercerts we create the foundation for an open evaluation system for credible and transparent impact assessment. Every hypercert can receive multiple evaluations from different evaluators using a variety of methodologies. This creates incentives to innovate evaluation methodologies and builds trust.\n\n# Where do we go from here\nLooking ahead, we aim to expand to more chains, enable evaluations with existing and new tools, enhance visualization with hyperboards, create marketplace tools, and collaborate for broader integration. With your support and a growing network, we're building a transparent interconnected funding ecosystem for positive impact.\n\n# The work so far\n- We released our whitepaper (draft): https://hypercerts.org/docs/whitepaper/whitepaper-intro \n- We have build the core protocol and released it on Goerli Testnet and Optimism\n- We have created a frontend for anyone to create hypercerts \u2013 available at https://www.hypercerts.org/ \n- We have build an SDK for anyone to build on top of the protocol: https://www.npmjs.com/package/@hypercerts-org/sdk \n- We have piloted hypercerts with the last three Gitcoin Rounds (Alpha, Beta, GR18) to show how they can be integrated into funding platforms \u2013 you can read more about it here: https://go.gitcoin.co/blog/hypercerts-for-public-goods-funding \n- We have piloted hypercerts with the pop-up city Zuzalu, retroactively raising more than 21 ETH: https://zuzalu.hypercerts.org/ \n- We have created hyperboards to visualize the contributions from multiple hypercerts to a project and piloted this with the conference series Funding the Commons\n- We have a core community (TG group: https://t.me/+YF9AYb6zCv1mNDJi) with many projects and platforms exploring how to use hypercerts, e.g. Greenpill+Hypercerts+Gitcoin (https://gov.gitcoin.co/t/better-impact-funding-the-greenpill-hypercerts-gitcoin-combo-move/16477), Gainforest (https://gainforest.earth/), da0/g0v Hypercerts Studio (Taiwan) (https://da0.g0v.tw/), Momus.eth & gitcoinreviews.co: Evaluation platform (https://gov.gitcoin.co/t/reviewing-gitcoin-grantee-impact-momus-eth-gitcoinreviews-co/15215), Longevity prize (https://www.longevityprize.com/)\n\n# The work ahead\n- Release the core protocol on additional EVM-compatible chains\n- Enable attestation, evaluations and supplementary information using existing tools like the Ethereum Attestation Service\n- Build out hyperboards, such that any project and event can create them\n- Create marketplace tools to sell and transfer hypercerts and add to SDK\n- Cooperate with funding platforms and projects to integrate hypercerts and build new applications like prize competitions with hypercerts\n\n# Testimonials \n\nJuan Benet (founder and CEO of Protocol Labs):\n> We are proud to be an early supporter of the Hypercerts Foundation, which will bring even greater focus and resources to this important area of innovation. The Hypercerts Foundation is helping build a more transparent and interoperable environment for funding public goods. We are excited to contribute to its mission in any way we can.\n\nKevin Owocki:\n> This is an exciting moment for the Hypercerts Foundation and for the future of impact funding. We are committed to advancing the development of decentralized protocols and novel coordination mechanisms.\n\n[See the announcement of the Hypercerts Foundation](https://hypercerts.notion.site/Introducing-the-Hypercerts-Foundation-d956203fe0fc4792980da138015e770a)", "lastUpdated": 0, "projectGithub": "hypercerts-org", "projectTwitter": "hypercerts"}, "recipient": "0xB6091aAb544eF253c23a37295953AaFc9D836681"}}
