Our approach is simple – we offer customised research reports for Catalyst campaigns. However, like software development, research isn’t sexy – it takes grunt work. To achieve this work in a scalable way, we propose forming a Research Guild, or a collective of independent researchers investigating blockchain solutions on Cardano. We aim to do so by building a professional research network within Project Catalyst, through invitation and paid research gigs. The Research Guild can also provide paid support to other proposals and initiatives by forming problem-solving scrums around key issues. If the project is successful, our vision is to build a global research network that draws researchers to Cardano, increases adoption as well as knowledge capital for DLT enterprise development.
