> Is there a location at which these proposals have been published?

They are not currently publishing the applications by default
because they currently view that as harming potential startups.

Though you can send them project press releases for publishing to:

There are probably no third party locations because most
proposals are likely to be from typical "startup" space
that is usually trying to secretly extract money from each
other and the market, than giving good things to the world.

Unknown. But if you're serious about doing anything with
them you need to get at least some kind of hello application
in now because they have a lot of apps in the pipeline,
and they say applications are closed. So it'll have to be
something good to bypass the rest.


As to some recently mentioned ones...

1) A new general purpose secure *PA resistant internet overlay
transport network built from good current and new research,
including use of pluggable RF module tech. Many apps
can ride. And it should be designed to be a factor stronger
than tor, i2p, and all the rest are today.

2) An OpenAudited OpenFab building OpenHW (including
CPU, GPU, ASIC, RF, Phones), to run all the OpenSW on.

3) There should be an application for strictly a cryptocurrency...
distributed, privacy in protocol by default, cpu transaction mined,
no 100GB's of blockchain history only a UTXO state db, and strictly
serving only the "currency / money / cash" function, fast lightweight
hard, no premine, no support for tokens, contracts, data, or any other
bloatware at all, just a plain old fashioned single purpose cash. Maybe
multisig and timelock for safer holding, but that's it, the less the better
will yield recognition as purely money and reach primary goal of
cryptocurrency adoption faster therein. It must be capable of running
over anonymous overlay networks.

4) And an application for a genuine fully distributed
cross-chain DEX (CCDEX) is a remaining tech that is
desperately needed to help complete the cryptocurrency
function space. It must be capable of running over
anonymous overlay networks.


Few want to do 1, 3, or 4, because when done right,
there's no profit or control over other people for them
to have, and that's how it should be. Though 2 can
profit once it gets running, it would be better if it spent
its profit to seed independant redundant copies of itself
and or other needed projects.


So far most of the online chatter seems to be about
getting yet more pointless shitcoins off the ground than
working on fundamental underlying tech the fund, or at
least some of us, would like to see.

I'd even help review some of the apps but I'm not in that loop.
