hypercerts are live on Celo
Celo emphasises real-world solutions to build a thriving new digital economy for
all. We agree and that's why you can now mint hypercerts on Celo. Switch your
wallet to Celo and get started. Note that you should mint your hypercert either
on Optimism or Celo. If you mint your hypercert on both, only the first mint
represents a valid hypercert.

Reward impact with hypercerts
To solve the challenges we face this century, we need scalable and sustainable
financing models for public goods that reward contributors for the positive
impact they create.

Hypercerts are a new protocol for funding and rewarding positive impact
Every hypercert is a public claim on a discrete piece of work and impact
resulting from that work. Projects can create hypercerts and distribute them to
contributors. Funders can own hypercert fractions — and the rights that come
with them. Impact evaluators can create value for projects and funders by
assessing the quality of hypercerts and offering ratings. Hypercerts create
interoperability by serving as a single, open, shared, decentralized database
for impact claims and funding mechanisms.
Recurring income for public goods
Retrospective funding rewards projects for the impact they have created. As long
as projects create impact, they can create hypercerts for the impact and get
retrospective rewards for these. In contrast to today’s grant systems, projects
have recurring income streams.
High-potential public goods
Buying hypercerts retrospectively allows funders to increase their funding in
relation to the impact created, incentivizing projects to maximize their
positive impact. Funders benefit from a large positive impact and incur project
risks. Retrospective funding encourages high-risk/high-potential public goods.
De-risking impact-funding
Retrospective funders allocate their funds more effectively as they face less
uncertainty about the impact projects had. This is especially important when the
impact of public goods doesn't increase linearly. Retrospective funders wouldn’t
waste funds by rewarding a project for building half a bridge.
Using the same hypercert primitive, funders and projects create a scalable,
interoperable and transparent funding environment for innovative public goods.
