The top five creators with the highest engagement will receive 5,000 SEI each.

Quadratic Funding and Community Standards

The Sei Creator Fund employs Quadratic Funding (QF), a crowd-funding mechanism that matches small community donations with a larger central fund. This approach rewards projects based on the number of donors rather than the size of donations, fostering shared ownership and encouraging smaller contributors.

Participants must adhere to ethical and community standards, including prohibitions against hateful content, market manipulation, and providing financial advice without qualifications. Compliance with applicable laws and maintaining positive community interaction are mandatory.
