The first thing to know about Gitcoin is that we are mission first. Our mission is to build and fund digital public goods. Open Source Software is a digital public good that creates $400bn/year in value, and we believe creators of OSS don’t have great ways to monetize their work on this digital infrastructure. Our goal is to correct this asymmetry.
