The Arweave Open Web Foundry

Feb 2nd, 2022 - March 17th, 2022

Make sure to join the Arweave Discord Dev server

The Open Web Foundry is a six-week programme guiding founders through the process of launching an amazing new startup on Arweave’s decentralised web. From initial idea, to product, to acquiring users and pitching to top-tier investors alongside other incredible founders, we are with you every step of the way. We welcome submissions from founders creating a new profit sharing community on Arweave, or further developing an existing one.

Arweave enables the development of fully decentralized, permanently hosted web applications. Not only that, but founders can use Arweave to form profit sharing communities (PSCs) around their applications as well, which represents a fundamentally new and fairer business model for their apps. You can find out more about profit sharing communities and their associated tokens here and here.

The Open Web Foundry is the fourth instalment of the incubation and acceleration programme . Already, more than $30,000,000 in seed investments have been made across the alumni of the first five batches. We’re very excited to inspire and support the latest batch of developers to quit their jobs and pursue something they love!

As well as potentially fundraising for your project, the Open Web Foundry offers:

  • Deep Dives every Wednesday by industry experts on foundational topics like pitching to professionals and designing effective investor and community pitch decks, as well as on topical subjects relevant to projects building right now.
  • Live support from profit sharing community experts on Discord, to answer questions, help troubleshoot throughout your development process, and brainstorm your ideas.
  • Weekly ‘Community Spotlight’ events on Fridays, where current and previous programme participants can showcase their work, learning from each other and getting an insight into the current ecosystem developments.
  • Expert, tailored, and individual support sessions for you, your co-founders and teammates, helping you to refine your presentation skills before you pitch for investment.
  • The programme culminates in Demo Day, an event allowing leading projects to showcase their work, and pitch for investment from the Arweave core team as well as supportive investors from throughout the Arweave ecosystem.

This programme delivers tailored resources and support to both brand new and existing profit sharing community teams who wish to push their projects to the next level.

Get Started!

All you need to do to get started is to register here on Gitcoin, and join the Arweave developers’ Discord server! Registrations are open to all, throughout the entire of the programme. We will notify you of upcoming events and deadlines as the programme progresses.

We also offer participants a small amount of AR tokens so you can get started building and deploying. Grab your wallet here, and check the web extension user guide here to learn how to use your wallet.

Key Resources

Rules and Criteria

Successful submissions will meet the following criteria:

  • Apps must be open source, with the full source code available on Github or another open code hosting repository. Feel free to use whatever OSS licence you prefer.
  • Your project will ideally be a profit sharing community on Arweave. The owners of the associated profit sharing token receive royalties from usage of the app.
  • By the end of the six-week programme, your project must include a link to a live, functioning, and running instance of the app itself, as well as a link to the repository it is stored within. It must also be published to ArweaveApps (see the submission process below).
  • Your UI will ideally be hosted on Arweave.
  • All applicants must join our Discord Dev server and share your submission in the #on-the-arweave channel upon completion.

Investment details

The Arweave core team will invest $100,000 USD in total across successful projects submitted during the Open Web Foundry programme. Third-party investors will also consider investing alongside Arweave. The Arweave investment will primarily be made in exchange for the project’s profit sharing tokens.

Selected projects will be presenting their submission during Demo Day, which will take place on March 17th, with investment meetings following soon after.

Note: The bounty has a value of $100,000 USDC on Gitcoin, this is only a representation of the total investment pool of $100,000 USDC that is available - the specific currency will depend on the agreement with the investee(s).

Submission Deadline:

11:59pm EST on March 17th, 2022

Announcement Date:

Investments will be announced after the end of the programme.

See you on the permaweb!

I am solving the persistent problem of scholarly journals going dark after a some years by using the permaweb. I want to build a project that provides storage solutions for scholarly journals and a web hosting platform for journals.

For every journal that disappears either because the regular internet failed or because the publisher can no longer support the cost of remaining online, a common problem for many journals in developing countries that do not have the luxury of big budgets, citations (which researchers value), time and resources (which is generally limited in developing countries) are wasted.

Existing research data archiving solutions have failed in solving this problem. They all have limitations from being centralised in decision making (although some claim to run decentralised storage) which makes them prone to censorship , they are expensive and they run a closed system which shuts out journals from developing countries.

The vanishing of research data has implications for the development of the poor countries because research-based data has direct relationship with the development of these countries, it could be important element that aids formulation of effective policies that drive development.

Access does not mean inclusion. But with my solution, I want to give both access and inclusion to all peer-reviewed scholarly journals and contents in developing countries. As a published researcher myself, I had experienced this problem where my research disappeared when the journal went dark. As a journalist who has covered science, education and development will advance if research data is made readily available and perpetual through the permaweb.

This project, just as it has potentials for profit, it is also a social good.

42) ourgalaxydao has started work.

We have enough discussions on why NFTs stored in IPFS are unsafe, but Arweave could tackle them with: 1) Permanence; 2) Decentralized unlike most "centralized" IPFS pinning services; and 3) No Recurring Fees. But the current situation is, the majority of popular NFT collections are still using IPFS for their storage. Why? After some analysis, OurGalaxyDAO, as a web3.0 promoter, presents the ArGalaxy. It is time for an awareness-raising campaign for NFT collectors to urge the NFT creators to migrate their NFTs to Arweave.

ArGalaxy provides a licensing service to help NFT creators to migrate their existing storage methods to Arweave, and lists the collections to ArGalaxy (Metaverse) Gallery as a verification milestone. It is expected that more people aware of the importance of storing NFTs on Arweave. We don't mind NFT creators migrating without using ArGalaxy later, since our mission to raise awareness has been achieved. But we do believe our business model could create a sustainable cash flow perpetually.

Our Service helps Creators to verify the Arweave files (Images/gif/mp4) are identical to the earlier files stored in IPFS or other storage. This is a critical step to ensure the NFT collectors are receiving identical NFTs even the BaseURI is changed. We would then work out for the Manifest Mapping to generate an "ArGalaxy verified BaseURI" (using ArGalaxy Arweave address) for the Creators. The NFT Creators could choose either 1) replacing the BaseURI of the original collections, or 2) opening a new collection with the ArGalaxy BaseURI. After all, as an incentive for NFT creators to use ArGalaxy, we will mint an ArGalaxy NFT (under ArGalaxy address) and list it on a Metaverse Gallery, for the public to inspect the collections verified with an ArGalaxy License. Other NFT Collections migrating without an ArGalaxy license could be prone to have changed the BaseURI but releasing a different NFT version to the original NFT version.

ARMetaDAO
Manage your metadata with a DAO on the arweave network, ARMetaDAO makes metadata scalable.

What is ARMetaDAO?
It is a metadata management platform built on arweave. You can convert any media resource or content into ARMeta and store it on arweave, and you can govern your ARMeta with a DAO, which makes your metadata more flexible.

ARMeta
Each ARMeta is a smartweave smart contract, It has its own Id, you can query each ARMeta by Id, you can use it as the Token URI of NFT, and it can be used for each chain.

ARMeta DAO
Each ARMeta will generate an ARMeta-DAO. ARMeta-DAO is composed of ARMeta's governors. They decide the development of ARMeta through voting. Voting can modify media resources, names, descriptions, attributes, and governance members. This makes the metadata upgradable, and the DAO guarantees fairness on each upgrade.
DAO has been supported to modify ARMeta options:
Add DAO Members
Remove DAO Members
Change Image
Change Name
Change Description
Add Attributes
Remove Attributes
Change Governance Rules

Why use ARMetaDAO?
Make NFTs more interesting
Metadata is widely used in NFTs. We have an NFT, but we don't really have the metadata bound to the NFT. ARMeta can allow metadata to be modified, if you have a Punk NFT, but its name is punk #89, if your metadata can be modified, you can name it Alice's punk, you can even add more you want to display information. Make your NFT data more interesting.

Increase collaboration
Several painters or writers can work together to create an ARmeta. Each modification is voted on by participants, and modification records can be stored in arwearve, which forms a self-organizing network.

ARMetaDAO does not destroy metadata
You may think that this will destroy the NFT metadata. In fact, the right to modify the data is an option. It is determined by the governance rules of the DAO. When you define ARMeta, you can decide whether each data is modified or not. For example you can set your punk ARMeta, the image option cannot be modified.
