Reward Size

Like T-shirts, rewards come in three sizes, depending on the level of contribution: small, medium, and large.

Overview

The Glow platform uses a standardized system for determining reward sizes. Judges evaluate each nomination against specific criteria and assign one of three reward sizes based on the contribution's impact, complexity, and effort.

Grant Categories

Small

Designed to acknowledge initial contributors or modest contributions. This grant expresses appreciation for participation and encourages further involvement. Typically awarded for bug fixes, minor improvements, or first-time contributions to the XRPL ecosystem.

Medium

Intended to reward more significant contributions. This grant provides a substantial reward to support those making a notable impact within the XRPL ecosystem. Awarded for feature implementations, significant improvements, or ongoing maintenance of important projects.

Large

Reserved for full-time contributors. This grant aims to support and incentivize sustained work on projects that advance the XRPL ecosystem. Awarded for major contributions that demonstrate exceptional impact, innovation, or technical excellence.

Determination Process

Grant sizes are determined through a structured assessment process:

  1. Eligibility Check: Judges first verify that the contribution meets the eligibility criteria.

  2. Quality Assessment: Each judge evaluates the contribution's technical quality, complexity, and impact.

  3. Community Impact: Judges consider community votes and multiple Scout nominations.

  4. Consensus: Multiple judges (typically three) review each nomination independently.

  5. Final Decision: The most common assessment among judges determines the final shirt size.
