FundLoop is a regenerative funding network that brings projects and users into a shared economic loop.
A New Era of Capital Allocation
At its core, FundLoop is about aligning incentives—projects commit 1% of their revenue to the ecosystem, and in return, their users become eligible for a monthly citizen salary, funded by these contributions. It’s a simple but powerful idea: pay people for being active, verified humans who engage with aligned apps.
But where do these funds go? How are they distributed? How can we make sure they’re allocated fairly, efficiently, and transparently?
This is where Allo comes in.
What is Allo?
“Allo” is short for capital allocation—an umbrella that includes Gitcoin, Gitcoin Grants, Gitcoin Passport, the Allo Protocol, and now the latest incarnation: Allo Capital. These tools have become a vital backbone for allocating funds to builders, communities, and ecosystems. Whether it's quadratic funding rounds, conviction voting, or builder-based reputation systems, Allo provides the infrastructure needed to route money where it matters most.
Why FundLoop + Allo Is a Natural Fit
FundLoop and Allo are built for the same world: one where value is created by communities, where public goods matter, and where capital flows are designed to support collective prosperity.
Here’s how FundLoop integrates with Allo:
- **Proof-of-Activity Allocation**: FundLoop uses zk-based attestations to measure monthly engagement across participating projects. These activity scores become the input for allocating citizen salaries—and Allo Protocol is the perfect place to define and execute those allocation mechanisms.
- **Conviction Voting for Rule Updates**: The parameters that govern FundLoop (such as weights for projects, participation thresholds, or user segmentation rules) are not fixed. We’ll use **Allo governance spaces** to let the community vote on these using conviction-based governance tools.
- **Funding Pools with Purpose**: FundLoop can spin up specialized funding pools within the Allo ecosystem. For example: a Builders Pool for infrastructure contributors, a Local Loop for Toronto-based projects, or a Youth UBI Fund targeting under-25 verified users. These pools use Allo’s open coordination and routing mechanisms.
- **Sybil Resistance with Gitcoin Passport**: FundLoop integrates **Cubid** for local and multi-channel identity, but also complements this with Gitcoin Passport. The stronger the proof-of-personhood, the more eligible the user becomes for UBI or project-specific bonuses.
- **Public Matching & Grant Rounds**: In the future, FundLoop may participate in Allo Capital rounds by submitting its treasury pools for matching funds—effectively boosting citizen salary payouts when aligned with Allo’s priorities.
Why It Matters
Together, FundLoop and Allo form a complete cycle:
- **Projects** generate value and contribute revenue.
- **Users** create value by engaging meaningfully across the ecosystem.
- **FundLoop** collects contributions and calculates eligible activity.
- **Allo** routes those funds with transparency and community governance.
This integration ensures that value doesn’t just flow—it flows wisely, guided by open data, collective intent, and protocol-native infrastructure.
Final Thoughts
We believe capital allocation is too important to leave to chance or central authority. FundLoop’s integration with Allo is our way of ensuring that every dollar, token, or stablecoin contributed to the loop gets to where it’s most deserved.
Together, we’re not just funding public goods—we’re redefining who gets paid, why, and how.
Join the Loop. Coordinate with Allo. Build the Future.
