Planned Network Improvements
The funding targets several core infrastructure upgrades. Planned work includes improving Tor and I2P support, upgrading the Monero GUI, and fixing issues in the core software. Specifically, jpk68 intends to add support for the Tor Control protocol to monerod, allowing the software to configure onion services automatically and reduce manual setup.
Another key priority involves investigating whether the existing I2P SAM implementation can be integrated into Monero’s core wallet code to support connections through remote nodes. Previous contributions by the developer include helping move the Monero GUI to Qt6, fixing software correctness issues, and contributing to approximately 50 merged pull requests during the first eight months of contributing.
Community Crowdfunding System
Unlike projects that maintain a dedicated foundation treasury for development grants, Monero relies on voluntary contributions through its Community Crowdfunding System. The system allows developers to submit proposals, discuss scope, and request donations directly from the community.
Once accepted, proposals enter the funding stage, where supporters contribute $XMR toward the requested amount before moving into the work-in-progress category with payments tied to agreed milestones.
