Astral is committed to operating as an open-source public good that relies on grant funding to achieve our mission. Some of our accomplishments include:

- Co-founding the Decentralized Geospatial Web Working Group to bring onchain location-centric builders together
- Founding member of the Climate Collective to foster coordination amongst onchain climate-centric projects
- Serving as Stewards and Guild Leads at Kernel’s ReFi and DeFi Communities
- Contributing to Ethereum’s Public Goods Infrastructure as Fellows in Ethereum Attestation Service (EAS) initial fellowship, where we were shortlisted on Demo Day
- Receiving grants from Filecoin, Celo, Gitcoin, and various others as Astral is a grant-funded open-source project building public goods
- Finalist at ETHDenver 2022 with ZKMaps, a protocol that allows users to attest to their location without giving away the specific location.
- We’ve established partnerships with DIMO, FOAM, Proximum, and Toucan, to name a few. These relationships help to ensure we build with our target users, developers of onchain location-based applications. These partnerships have been invaluable in how we design and structure Astral.
