Infrastructure / Project record

Zcash Testnet Infrastructure

Cacho's scoped public testnet and explorer infrastructure work, using tools in the shared Zcash and historical ECC namespaces. The ECC prototype record intentionally also lists testnet-in-a-box; repository hosting is separate from grantee identity.

How to read these amounts

Requested amounts, decisions and paid entries are separate. Where the ledger omits a request, a reviewed proposal may supply it with its own source. A requested cap is a maximum, not guaranteed spending. The ledger has no distinct approved-amount field. USD is the historical budget; ZEC is the recorded disbursement, not a current valuation or independent settlement verification.

What each source establishes

Publications establish released work; team reports contain claims. Acceptance requires evidence tied to a specific milestone. Payments alone do not prove delivery.

Shared repositories can include non-Zcash work. Missing records do not establish inactivity or low adoption.
