100 DAOs ($50M).
Governors of each DAO have delegated autonomy over its assets and initiatives. Harmony helps define 3 broad mandates, recruit 9 governors, define the deliverables and metrics for the first 3 months, and fund at maximum $1M...

1000 Bounties ($30M).
Hunters of each bounty can be anonymous and without commitment. Harmony helps define the scopes, the estimated hours and the deliverables of tasks. We recommend $10K-$200K as a bounty's reward, small teams of 1-3 persons engaging over 3-12 weeks...

100 Grants ($20M).
Recipients of each grant must have achieved product-market fit. Harmony helps scale these thriving projects via porting to our mainnet. We recommend $50-250K each over 4-8 weeks, on projects already with active 10K users...

500 Launches ($20M).
Applications of each launch must have prototyped a feature-full product. Harmony helps incubate these founding teams with product development, fundraising, and talent recruit. We recommend a $50K equity-free contribution each...

Moreover, we will continue to engage other platform partners such as Gitcoin Kernel, DeFi Alliance, DAOhaus, University of Wyoming, and HashKey.
We are planning an upcoming update impacting our explorer node and how the RPC API will behave:
1. hmy_getBlocks/hmyv2_getBlocks/eth_getBlocks: Limit the size of block query to 1024.
2. hmy_getLogs/hmyv2_getLogs/eth_getLogs: Limit the size of block query to 1024.
Since the changes are not backward-compatible, please check the usage of these APIs and update your code as necessary to avoid any service interruption.
We are planning to deploy the new version to our public API providers on Aug 9th 2021.
3 @harmonyprotocol updates: 1) our full team is working to on-board foundational node operators for Mainnet v0 by the end of June. Please reach out if we can be helpful. For others interested, sign up at harmony.one/sodl for when we open up participation! @nickwh8te
2) our engineering team has been working around the clock. We worked until 2am last Saturday night to get RC1 ready. RC = release candidate for Mainnet v0. Main focus is on stability of the network and getting nodes running smoothly and earning full block rewards @RongjianLan
