Hi there! Thanks for submitting the grant proposal. After reading it, I have a question: How will your clothing brand promote The Graph?

Also, the relation of a clothing brand with swing trading is a bit confusing.

I strongly recommend that you apply for the advocates program and see where you can contribute. After some time and gaining more knowledge, you can submit another grant proposal with a better idea:

Greetings!

Thank you for submitting your proposal. Unfortunately, due to fact that this proposal is not focused on the community area and not align with the scope of The Graph Advocates DAO, the Grant Proposal should be closed. Good luck!
