Following up on our Stellar Community Fund project goal, we have been developing a non-custodial bounty marketplace which would enable users to earn Stellar assets while helping Stellar projects. The marketplace is now functional and open to beta:

https://cgig.app/bounty

Per our custom of eating our own dog food, we have posted some bounties related to Cgig to show the possibilities, but anyone could post a bounty with any type of Stellar asset. As a creator or supporter of a project, you could use it to crowdsource testing, brainstorming, coding/bug fixing, social media marketing, creative design, etc…

Being non-custodial like our other two marketplaces (service and job), there are no fees or middlemen. Users receive payments immediately upon award and funders don’t have to worry about locking their tokens in an intermediary. Your Stellar assets are always in your own possession.

The bounty UI is designed to facilitate transparent communication alongside work submissions. Users could use it ask questions and resolve ambiguities in the funder’s requirement or request revision on a work submission. All Stellar payment transactions are tracked and displayed in the UI.

In addition to awarding bounties, you could also tip users for contributions that are really good and deserves extra love.

All bounties are collaborative by default- meaning anyone could award or add on to anyone else’s bounty and anyone could tip a particularly helpful response. This enables crowdfunding by multiple parties to contribute to solving a common problem.

For custom Stellar assets, Cgig will guide the user to setup a Stellar account trustline (if necessary) before participating. Custom assets also link to its Stellarport exchange dashboard so users could check its liquidity before participating (this an issue with Ethereum bounty platforms)

As a reminder, Cgig is competing for the Stellar Community Fund. In the first round, each user could vote for multiple projects. If you like what we do and have a GalacticTalk account, please support us by liking our first GalacticTalk post:
