[YieldBay](https://list.yieldbay.io/) is a yield farm aggregator for the dotsama ecosystem. Our goal with YieldBay is two-fold:

1. To reduce information asymmetry and lower the barrier to entry for liquidity providers and yield farmers
2. To make it easier for protocols to acquire liquidity for their token pools


This is a follow-up to [our previous treasury proposal](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1fssDqgPtIjdwO0XfJW5po94JHMf1ozdjeLwM2a40zJ8/edit?usp=sharing) ([Motion #262](https://polkadot.polkassembly.io/motion/262) on Polkassembly) to build further on our goal of reducing information asymmetry in finding and participating in liquidity pools and yield farms in the dotsama ecosystem.

As outlined in our previous proposal's problem statement and illustrated below in the screenshot of feedback from community members — participating in yield farms in the dotsama ecosystem is a tedious and time consuming process.

With our previous proposal, we built an aggregated list of yield farms, which allows users to discover all major yield farms across the ecosystem and allows protocols to increase visibility of their liquidity pools and yield farms. The current version of this product is live on [https://list.yieldbay.io/](https://list.yieldbay.io)

In this proposal, we are seeking to fund the development of an aggregated yield farming dashboard to allow users to participate in dotsama yield farms as well as monitor and manage their positions from one central location.

**Progress so far:**

- [YieldBay list](https://list.yieldbay.io), the yield farm listing platform funded by the Polkadot Treasury as [Motion #262](https://polkadot.polkassembly.io/motion/262) on Polkassembly tracks over **$92M+ TVL** across **15 protocols**

- The platform has had **4.3k** unique visitors who spent an average time of over **3min** on the site

**NOTE:** This submission is only for the first milestone. We shall make separate submissions for payment of the remaining milestones upon completion of delivery.

Problem Statement:
- The problem is the need for financial support for the 2022 Summer Polkadot Hackathon in China, which is an essential part of the Substrate promotion and adoption initiatives.

Significance:
- The hackathon helps promote Substrate as an open-source framework for developers and convert Substrate learners into builders.

Proposed Solution:
- OneBlock plans to run two Polkadot hackathons in June 2022 and December 2022, and they are seeking financial support for these events.

Expected Outcomes:
- The expected outcome is the successful organization and promotion of the hackathons, which will further promote Substrate and encourage developers to use it for building projects.
