[RFC] Uniswap Grants Program v0.1

Thanks for posting this Jesse - we definitely need some kind of structured program IMO, the governance process thus far is feeling a bit hectic and having a place to point projects for funding will get rid of a lot of potential clutter. I also want to say that I think Ken is a great choice to lead the program.

Minor points of feedback:

  1. I’d like to see the program start without a budget (i.e. be voted in conceptually before voting on the details) and have the budget be something we vote on after Ken proposes a more formal structure and process for how he’ll be handing out grants.

  2. I think we should denominate the pay in a stablecoin. If Ken wants to convert that to UNI that’s great, but I’ve seen this go wrong too many times to think that payment in a volatile currency is a good idea

  3. More of a question than feedback - is this a “Temperature Check”?

Finally, if the final Reviewer spot is still available I’d like to volunteer :slight_smile:
