Introduction
Gitcoin (Twitter : https://twitter.com/gitcoin) is a community where developers can earn funding in Web 3 while creating open source decentralized applications.
Gitcoin Grants Beta Round is the first major round on the new decentralized protocol after GR15.
Rules
The Gitcoin Grants Beta Round is live now.
Period: April 25, 2023 — May 9, 2023
Some projects may provide airdrops and rewards to donors later on. Donating does not guarantee airdrops. Airdrops like $GTC, $MASK and $RSS3 have provided a decent return for donors.
Layer 2 projects airdrop to Gitcoin Donors as well. For example, Optimism allocated 556 OP ($1200) each for addresses that donated on L1.
There is also a lot of speculation on a potential airdrop from zkSync to Gitcoin Donors as they are close partners. (https://blog.matter-labs.io/funding-public-goods-with-gitcoin-b473ccbc133b)
If you donated in Gitcoin Alpha, claim a Hypercert for another potential airdrop at https://hypercerts.org/app/dashboard/. Hypercert is a project from Protocol Labs who made IPFS.
Guide
Getting Started:
Gitcoin round Beta is on Ethereum mainnet only.
Step 1:
Go to the grants page (https://grants.gitcoin.co/) and choose the rounds to donate to.
We will demonstrate with the OSS round. Make sure you are connected to ETH mainnet.
Generally you should look for projects that
1. Have a detailed description about what they do.
2. Have not yet issued their tokens, with potential to launch one later.

Step 2:
Gitcoin Passport scores reset after 90 days, so your passport may have already expired. Recreate it at https://passport.gitcoin.co/.
You can now do 1-click verification to add all on-chain stamps back.
For Web2 stamps, you still need to verify them one-by-one.
You need a minimum of 15 points to be eligible for matching funding for your donations on Gitcoin Passport.
Step 2:
Simply click “Add to Shortlist” for the projects you want to donate to.
Click on the shopping cart to check out.
Select the amount and the type of asset to donate. Click “Apply to all” and “Submit your donation”.
Step 4:
Confirm your transaction and you will see this after your payment.
If you are also donating to other rounds, you’ll need to go back to https://grants.gitcoin.co/ and repeat the above process again.
That’s all. Here comes the wait till the airdrop.
