How is Livepeer used for this project?

Livepeer will use the outcome of this process to progressively decentralize.

• Ad hoc help and connections

Was this project started at a hackathon or another web3 event? Which one?

5 years experience working in Governance

How did you learn about the Livepeer Grants Program?

This is a microgrant application rather than a code task, and it names no files, tests, or entry points. Review the grant details and repository status first; completion would be a clarified governance strategy and a process in motion, but no implementation acceptance criteria are stated.
