It is a completely new way of incentivizing public contribution for user research, along with sharing data publicly that has been gatekept historically. \n\nThis idea is revolutionary because of several factors;  \n\n- Most user research is privately held by companies, preventing web3 researchers from comparing user patterns to ascertain trends or have a public dialogue about burgeoning best practices.\n- User researches who work alongside or within private institutions do not often have colleagues to check their work, and are therefore unable to check their work for inherent bias.\n- With public data being contributed by a mass contributor pool, we inherently create a database of unbiased, publicly checked user data that can be accessed by all builders. This completely flips the value proposition for companies to keep their user research private, and fosters a culture for the builder community to discourse about understanding trends and best practices.", "hidden": false, "question": "Please explain how your project meets the round-specific eligibility criteria.
