Thanks for the shoutout, @StaniKulechov ! This is another strong use case built to showcase the power of the @PowerloomHQ protocol without compromising on decentralization!

๐Ÿ“ข A sneak peek into what we've been building at @PowerLoomHQ while our protocol is still in early stages of development. ๐Ÿ‘‡ We are consuming live data from @gitcoin grants #gr8 to generate transparent and verifiable audits for everyone! ๐ŸŽ‰

Time to take the wraps off after 2 years of hard work by my team at @PowerLoomHQ - but as they say "talk is cheap, show me the code, right? Everything is open sourced on Github. Best place to start: 1-click deploy to Codespace without spending a dime! ๐Ÿคฏ

After some more digging, it looks like one of @digitalocean 's providers (Airtel) is blanket blocking certain @Cloudflare IPs from BLR datacenter. Censorship mixed with incompetency is a dangerous combo. Cc @internetfreedom

Hey @digitalocean - your India based servers are randomly blocking requests to our domain () with an Airtel error pointing to this: Please remove the block. ๐Ÿ™
