RFP: Ethereum censorability monitor

Hey everyone,

We’re excited to announce the results of our RFP for building the censorability meter for Ethereum!

Here are some handy links to check out all of the participants (in alphabetical order):

We had four awesome submissions, and it was tough to choose the prize winners. But, after much deliberation, we have made our decision.

The first prize of 20k DAI goes to Neutrality Watch! They did an amazing job of tracking the current and historical metrics of service degradation for censorable transactions, and they best tracked the impact of Lido and Lido’s node operators on service degradation. Their submission provided an API, and we will find a way to make sure the project is maintained long-term.

The second prize of 10k DAI goes to Ultra Sound Relay! They came up with awesome dashboards that highlight the current situation in Ethereum very well, are live on the well-known website, and, in general, scratch the itches of the Ethereum community best. It also showed a strong likelihood of being maintained long-term.

Both other submissions receive 2k DAI prizes because they are awesome in their own way. We also want to give out two special prizes! The first special prize of 3k DAI goes to Valitraitors for having the best visualization of censorship and the best staking pool comparison. And a controversial monicker, that too.

The second special prize of 3k DAI goes to P2P for having the best open dataset. Their submission, the Ethereum Censorship Monitor, is the most comprehensive in terms of raw data (accessible to all via bigquery) and shows the dedication to Ethereum ethos.

We want to thank everyone who submitted their works and methodology for the RFP! Your contributions were amazing, and we appreciate the time and effort you put into your projects.

Please post the addresses to receive prizes below or reach out to a LEGO committee member.

So, that’s it! Thanks again to all the participants, and we can’t wait to see what you all come up with next!
