About the Bounty
Regenerative finance (“ReFi”) is an emerging concept in crypto, focused on creating positive and sustainable impact through DeFi rails.
Given Solana’s high-speed, low-cost capabilities, the chain is primed to help lead the ReFi revolution. The ReFi ecosystem on Solana is nascent, but growing quickly! To that effect, Superteam is sponsoring a bounty to understand the ReFi landscape on Solana, covering the following topics:
- Ecosystem map: A definitive eagle’s eye view of the Solana ReFi ecosystem.
- Quantitative overview: What are some relevant stats concerning Solana ReFi? Including but not limited to VC investment, # of projects, etc. Please include sources.
- Identify current gaps in the market: What are specific ReFi projects that are missing from the ecosystem right now? Include a list of ReFi projects that should be built on Solana, and mention how they benefit the ecosystem.
- Wins of Solana ReFi: What are some good things that have happened in the Solana ReFi ecosystem recently?
