FPS raised over $1,100 from 20 contributors through Giveth. So far, $13.45 of that has been spent on the forgeproposalsimulator.com domain. The rest is held for development and project costs.

We’re applying to give a talk at Devcon 8 about FPS. If the talk is accepted, we’ll allocate a proportionate share of the raised funds toward transport and lodging, based on the amount of time spent promoting and sharing FPS at the event. Conference talks are one of the few places where live demos and face-to-face conversations with protocol teams move adoption faster than documentation can. If our application isn’t accepted, those funds stay allocated to development time.
