# Web3 Grant Tracker — Gitcoin, Giveth & DAO Funding Monitor

Track active Web3 grant rounds, deadlines, and funding opportunities across Gitcoin, Giveth, Optimism RPGF, Arbitrum, and other DAO treasuries. Get alerts before rounds close.

## What It Does

- **Live grant round scanning** — checks Gitcoin GG rounds, Giveth, Octant, and more
- **Deadline alerts** — WhatsApp/Telegram warning 48h and 24h before round ends
- **Matching fund calculator** — estimates your potential QF match based on donor count
- **Project eligibility checker** — analyzes your GitHub/project against round requirements
- **Application tracker** — tracks which rounds you've applied to and their status
- **Portfolio dashboard** — shows all active + upcoming rounds with deadlines
- **Round history** — historical data on past rounds and typical funding amounts

## Quick Start

```bash
# Scan all active grant rounds right now
web3-grant-tracker scan

# Check what's closing soon (next 7 days)

📊 QF MATCH ESTIMATE (Gitcoin GG24, 50 donors):
   Conservative: $180–450
   Optimistic:   $600–1,200
   (Based on 50 unique donors × avg $5 contribution)

💡 Recommendation: Apply to GG24 Infrastructure round
   → run: web3-grant-tracker apply-guide gitcoin-gg24
```

## QF Matching Calculator

Quadratic Funding rewards projects with many small donors over few large ones:

```bash
# See how adding more donors affects your match
web3-grant-tracker estimate-match \
  --project "my-project" \
  --round gitcoin-gg24 \
  --donor-count 100 \
  --avg-donation 10

# Output:
# sqrt(10) * 100 donors = 316 QF units
# Estimated match: $1,200–2,800 (depends on pool)
# Getting to 200 donors would 2x your match!
```

## Application Guide Example

```bash
web3-grant-tracker apply-guide gitcoin-gg24

# Output:
# GITCOIN GG24 — INFRASTRUCTURE ROUND APPLICATION GUIDE
# ═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════
