Community Funding Proposal
Gonka Labs - Year One

Multi-provider RPC aggregation & enterprise reliability

• Already live - multi-provider load balancer aggregating all available Gonka RPC providers (6block, Hyperfusion, PS and others) behind a single rpc.gonka.gg address, with latency-based routing and automatic failover. Shipped ahead of this proposal in response to community issue #521: wallets keep working even when individual providers go offline.
• gRPC & WebSocket full support - expand beyond HTTP/REST to cover all RPC surfaces that wallets and node operators use.
• Geo-aware serving - route every request to the nearest healthy region so responses are fast regardless of where the requester is located.
• Public SLA dashboard - uptime history per provider, latency percentiles (p50/p95/p99), incident log. Every metric publicly visible.
• Open-sourcing the aggregation layer - publish the multi-provider router so anyone can audit it or run their own instance.

B2B inference portal with analytics

• Already live - business analytics portal, API key management, and the first round of performance optimization. proxy.gonka.gg is our product and is already #1 on Gonka by daily inference volume, serving 1–2B tokens per day.
• B2B integrations are already happening - some non-public, like provisioning 100 API keys with 300M tokens each for a company to test Gonka at scale; and some public, like Integrity - an Israeli-American startup ("#1 Product of the Day" on Product Hunt, $1M+ raised) now running Gonka models in production beta.
• Broker-level fixes for every integration - each B2B integration surfaces real issues at the broker level, and we solve them inside proxy.gonka.gg itself - payments, key provisioning, stability - so Gonka inference gets seriously utilized, not just demoed.
• Go-to-market analytics system - a two-tier internal analytics layer built for distribution. Actors create UTM-tagged links (source, medium, campaign, content, referral term) to track any channel - Telegram, paid ads, influencers, partner integrations. Analysts get a dashboard with multi-dimensional filtering across all UTM dimensions and date ranges: unique visitors, first action conversion, requests by model with error-rate breakdowns, token consumption over time, and deposited funds. Every metric sliceable by any combination of UTM parameters. Powers referral programs, partner attribution, and campaign testing.
• Multi-region deployment - geographic endpoints across EU, US, and CIS to cut round-trip latency for users and businesses worldwide.
• Escrow monitoring utility - built into the product for easier escrow rotation when consuming Gonka inference at commercial scale.
• Devshard proxy optimizations - reduce per-request overhead as commercial load keeps growing.

V2.0 - new high-performance engine

• The Etherscan of Gonka - every V2 improvement serves one goal: making gonka.gg the leading explorer for the network, the default place everyone goes for on-chain data.
• Pre-computed data pipeline - V2 puts more compute behind the explorer: heavy queries and analytics are pre-computed ahead of time instead of on demand, targeting 3–5× faster API responses under production load. We can finally afford the hardware to do it right.
• Better UI - cleaner layouts, faster navigation, redesigned data views across the whole explorer.
• Real-time WebSocket feeds - live block, transaction, and validator event streams. Currently everything is polled; V2 pushes updates the moment they land on-chain.
• Improved GPU and inference metrics accuracy - current GPU history data has edge cases and gaps. V2 fixes the underlying data pipeline and adds full history backfill.
• Mobile-responsive redesign - gonka.gg was built desktop-first. V2 is mobile-first with a rebuilt layout that works on all screen sizes.
• Search improvements - cross-entity search (address, tx hash, block, validator, GNS name) from a single input, sub-50ms response time.

iOS & Android - a Gonka superapp

• A superapp, not just a wallet - one app that puts convenient Gonka services on the phone: wallet, governance, GNS, network data. The mobile home for the entire ecosystem.
• AI inference from your pocket - chat with any model on the Gonka network directly from the app. No API keys, no setup - just pick a model and go. The full power of Gonka inference, accessible to anyone with a phone.
• Built with Expo - single codebase shipping to both the App Store and Google Play, with native modules where performance demands it.
• Trust Wallet–level wallet - full feature parity with the Chrome extension and beyond: governance voting, GNS resolution, IBC transfers, dApp provider protocol.
• Biometric authentication - Face ID / Touch ID on iOS, fingerprint on Android. Secure enclave key storage, never exposed in plaintext.
• Push notifications - new governance proposals, transaction confirmations, GNS name expiry warnings. Opt-in per notification type.
• WalletConnect support - connect to dApps from the mobile wallet, not just the browser extension.

Governance tooling improvements

Already live at gonkavote.com · open-source on GitHub. This proposal expands it further.

• Historical governance analytics - full participation history for all past proposals: voter turnout, YES/NO/ABSTAIN breakdown over time, validator voting patterns. Currently this data is not available anywhere on the Gonka network.
• Multi-wallet integration - sign and submit pre-vote signals from all major wallets, not just one.
• Proposal tracking and notifications - follow specific proposals, get notified when voting opens, closes, or results are published.
• Delegation-aware voting - show how much voting power is behind each signal, not just raw address counts.

Names marketplace & ecosystem deepening

• Public names marketplace - buy, sell, and transfer .gnk names between wallets on an open market. Names have real value: short names, brand names, and vanity addresses are already scarce. A marketplace makes that value liquid.
• Scam labeling & safety layer - community-driven flagging of suspicious names and addresses, surfaced everywhere GNS is resolved: explorer, wallet, and dApps.
• Deeper integration - GNS resolution in every product we touch: gonka.gg search, Gonka App send-to-name, governance profiles, and Gonkavote voter identity. Already officially integrated with hex.exchange.

MTD - Marketing Transparency Dashboard

• Context - Gonka has seen 300k+ USDT worth of marketing proposals. The community has no unified way to track whether any of it delivered results. We will build the tool that changes that.
• Deliverable tracker - every marketing initiative or proposal gets a public page: stated deliverables, deadlines, owner, and current status. Updates are timestamped and immutable.
• Performance dashboard - key metrics per initiative: reach, engagement, on-chain activity correlated to campaign windows, and cost-per-outcome where measurable. No cherry-picking - all campaigns visible.
• Open-source - the entire system is published on GitHub. Anyone can deploy it for their own Cosmos chain, verify the data pipeline, or propose improvements.

G-Router - multi-broker Gonka inference router

• Context - right now, developers integrating Gonka inference must choose a specific provider manually (a devshard, a proxy, etc.). There is no unified routing layer. This creates friction, single points of failure, and prevents Gonka from appearing in OpenRouter-style aggregator directories - a major discovery channel for AI developers. Track 2, Project 2 of the Gonka Network Development Roadmap explicitly calls for this: "An adapter for OpenRouter and/or a similar routing aggregation layer."
• Single unified endpoint - one API address that routes to the best available Gonka inference provider based on model availability, latency, and load. Developers never need to manage provider selection manually.
• OpenAI-compatible API - drop-in replacement for any OpenAI-compatible SDK. Change one line: the base URL. Everything else - model names, streaming, function calling - works as-is.
• Multi-provider load balancing - distribute traffic intelligently across all active Gonka inference providers. No single provider is a bottleneck or single point of failure.
• Fallback and retry logic - if a provider returns an error or times out, the router transparently retries on another without the client ever seeing it.
• OpenRouter listing - once stable, submit Gonka to OpenRouter as a provider. This unlocks access to thousands of developers who already use OpenRouter for model routing and discovery, without ever having heard of Gonka.
