Please read the notes to find out which criteria movers have been selected.

Ampleforth Governance Token (FORTH)

FORTH is a new governance token that completes the AMPL ecosystem by putting control of the protocol in the hands of the community. Anyone who has interacted with the AMPL ecosystem on-chain can claim FORTH tokens. FORTH is the mechanism by which the community will vote on parameter changes to the core AMPL protocol and, more broadly, the tool the community will use to steer the continued evolution of the Ampleforth ecosystem. Where AMPL represents an independent currency that functions as a unit of account, FORTH is the governing mechanism that oversees its evolution. FORTH is an inflationary token that can be directly utilized or delegated to propose and vote on changes to the Ampleforth protocol. Its model is an extension of Compound Finance’s COMP. To ensure a fair system that offers proper incentives for all network participants, initial governance parameters will be set when the on-chain governance is deployed. Additionally, you will be able to delegate your FORTH to “representatives” who will then be able to utilize your voting power to propose changes or vote on your behalf.

Radicle is a decentralized network for code collaboration. The project’s mission is to develop resilient infrastructure for open-source communities that is secure, sovereign, and exclusively built on open protocols, not platforms. Radicle’s protocols enable developers to collaborate on code without relying on trusted intermediaries. Its peer-to-peer network is complemented by an opt-in Ethereum smart contract system that enables global names, decentralized organizations, and protocols that help maintainers sustain their open-source work. With Ethereum, Radicle is harnessing the power of Ethereum and DeFi to enable developers to own their collaboration infrastructure truly. Since launching in beta this past December, Radicle has seen over 1,000 projects published to the network and garnered substantial interest from across the Web3 ecosystem.
