Name of Project
ETH->ONE #IndieNFT Bridge Initiative
Proposal overview
The new NFT bridge is live and we need to build up attention for this.
In my opinion this could be one of the biggest catalysts for ecosystem adoption and sharing the understanding of what makes Harmony a game changer for anyone that isn’t extremely wealthy.
There are THOUSANDS of small independent NFT projects on Ethereum that have become completely unusable because of Gas Fees.
Many of these project have active communities and viable long term visions for their projects, but are not built to scale enough to qualify for the #funding-proposals:launches Launch Grants.
They projects would still very much be amazing opportunities for growth in our Ecosystem.
I am asking that we create a pilot program for a new type of micro-grant from a single Launch Grant fund.
50k to issue to 5 to 50 NFT Projects.
1k USD for a project with 100+ users
5k USD for a project with 500+ users
10k USD for a project with 1000+ users
One of the DAOs could help manage the funds and decide which projects were appropriate to fund.

I have worked as an NFT developer for the past year and they are very dedicated communities.
However there’s an issue with most NFT project developers, they’re extremely focused on their own work and are usually fearful of looking into other chains, as they see it as a competition for their ability to get exposure to their chain (Eth in this case). If we can lower the barrier to making the leap, I think we could get many NFT Projects to jump over and when they do, they will see what they’re missing out on.
