About Livepeer Community Treasury
Livepeer, a decentralized network for video and real-time AI processing, has a protocol-owned community treasury funded by a share of LPT inflation. Anyone can ask it for funding, and bonded LPT holders (orchestrators and delegators) vote on each request on-chain.
Most funding goes to Special-Purpose Entities (SPEs) and teams with a defined scope of work, such as protocol R&D, network engineering and ecosystem growth. Some SPEs then pass funds on to builders through RFPs, grants and bounties of their own.
Expect a public, slow process: you workshop the proposal on the Livepeer forum, submit it on-chain, and need to clear a 33% quorum in a vote of about nine days. Proposals without a line-item budget rarely pass.
