Abstract
Blockfrost is a reliable way for developers to interact with the chain without running their own infrastructure or node. This proposal transitions Blockfrost into a free, community-governed public good, owned by the people who build on it where the Blockfrost source code, trademarks, and domains are transferred into community stewardship under an independent, community-governed not-for-profit. It funds a 18-month transition and operations into community ownership.
