<h3>Flow State is a digital co-op and impact funding platform that rewards people for streaming funding to public goods and empowers builders to become employees of the Commons.</h3> Our flagship product, Streaming Quadratic Funding (SQF), not only enables continuous, real-time quadratic funding rounds but also rewards member donors, grantees, and matching funders with Flow State patronage tokens (and rights to future retro profit distributions) for using the coop’s funding platform. In February 2024, we launched the <a href="https://mirror.xyz/geoweb.eth/54RLkPhmWIcWP4B8QFlYbVY_M-fxaNqjqZF-5pe3WdI" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">first-ever SQF pilot</a> on the Geo Web.<img src="https://images.spr.so/cdn-cgi/imagedelivery/j42No7y-dcokJuNgXeA0ig/bfa8a25b-871d-4d81-a592-f1faed11a3a8/SQFUI-ezgif.com-video-to-gif-converter_(1)/w=3840,quality=90,fit=scale-down">The strong reception of the pilot spurred us to begin building Flow State as a stand-alone project. We believe that we can grow the public goods economy through two areas of focus:<ol><li>Developing innovative streaming funding strategies that prioritize the public goods builder experience to create more employees of the commons</li><li>Implementing transparent mechanisms that give funders conviction to financially support public impact to create more investors in the commons</li></ol> We are excited to launch several SQF pilot ecosystem rounds this summer before releasing no-code round operations tooling for general use. Ecosystems that could benefit from SQF include…<ul><li>Crypto ecosystems that want to efficiently fund the projects that deliver foundational value to their ecosystem (with minimal grant administration costs)</li><li>Popup villages that want an easy, democratic way to pay contributors before and during popup villages</li><li>Impact organizations that want to grow support by showing where funding is driving impact</li></ul> Contact us at <a href="mailto:info@flowstate.network" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">info@flowstate.network</a> if you want to bring the power of SQF into your impact ecosystem. You and your community members can sustainably support public goods, earn patronage tokens, and help build the future of impact funding Note: Flow State is being launched as a Colorado Limited Cooperative Association (but it's not live yet). Coops are the original DAOs and offer established, flexible legal frameworks for distributing ownership and profits among members. <a href="https://opolis.co/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Opolis</a> has <a href="https://opolis.co/wp-content/uploads/2024/02/Opolis_-_DAO_Coop_White_Paper.pdf" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">helped pioneer this model in web3</a>. We're adapting the patronage model to focus on rewarding the member funders, builders, and ecosystems that drive public impact.
