RedChillies Labs Matures Out of IgniteDAO Grant Program

When we started RedChillies Labs last year, we got an invitation for a meeting with IgniteDAO team (then Zillacracy). That meeting kickstarted the ZilChill Gaming Platform as the first project to receive a $15,000 grant from IgniteDAO based on 5 milestones.

As of this writing time, we have 4 delivered milestones and 1 canceled milestone. Hence, RedChillies Labs matures out of this foundation phase and stepping into a growth phase.

Some of the learning lessons from IgniteDAO collaboration:

1. When IgniteDAO accepted us for a $15k grant, it fueled hope into our project. We had a plan on paper but with IgniteDAO, we got someone who believed in our plans.
2. Setting up milestones, and a drive to reach those milestones gave us a clear roadmap. We have had many meetings with IgniteDAO team. We discussed our process and executions to build something meaningful on Zilliqa.
3. We received mentorship from IgniteDAO team which was a crucial part of our foundation phase. There were ups and downs, missing deadlines, and many chaoses, but whenever we needed some help, we had easy access to reach out IgniteDAO.
4. Since IgniteDAO team is directly involved with Zilliqa core team, we felt a close connection within the ecosystem. That’s why we stayed at Zilliqa — building our dreams and making things people love to utilize.

While we are now looking forward to another institutional-level collaboration for our growth phase, we suggest new Zilliqa projects to reach out IgniteDAO who are looking for some early-stage support. Also, every Zilliqa holder can stake their ZIL tokens with IgniteDAO SSN to support IgniteDAO.
