For instance, during a popup village's SQF (Streaming Quadratic Funding) round, which could last the entire duration of the village (e.g., one month), participants of the popup village can act as direct funders (and implicitly, voters that help direct matching funds). They can direct and redirect their funding as the contributions of different individuals evolve over the popup village’s duration.  Contributors to the popup village could take on various roles, such as managing fitness activities, leading mindfulness circles, organizing educational sessions related to biotech, etc. Each village will have different contributor roles, often starting as volunteer positions. By listing these roles as grantees on an SQF round and allowing fellow popup villagers to vote, these otherwise volunteer roles can become paid positions, with compensation dynamically reflecting the value perceived by the community.  Additionally, this model could extend beyond the bounds of a popup village. A Zuzalu ecosystem group could run an ongoing round throughout the year to compensate contributors for continuous efforts, such as writing recurring newsletters or handling social media marketing. This approach ensures continuous support and fair compensation for those contributing to said group.", "hidden": false, "question": "How could your project interoperate with other Zuzalu projects?
