## Summary

Polkastats is requesting a **$5,000 micro-grant** from the SSV DAO to support the orderly sunset of SSVScan, maintain the claim page for users with outstanding rewards, and transfer the `ssvscan.io` domain to the SSV Foundation.

## Background

SSVScan has served the SSV ecosystem since the early days of the network, providing operators, stakers, and the wider community with a third-party explorer at a time when very few tools existed. We built and maintained it together with **DragonStake** , and we’re proud of the role it played in supporting the network’s early growth.

With the SSV Labs Explorer now offering a comprehensive, accurate, and feature-rich experience — including revised operator performance metrics, duty breakdown visualizations, network-level statistics, and Beacon Chain–aligned validator statuses — we agree that this is the right moment to sunset SSVScan and direct users to the official Explorer.

## Scope of Work

The grant covers three deliverables:

### 1. Sunset Execution (May 31, 2026)

- Officially phase out SSVScan on May 31, 2026
- Implement a sunset banner across the site directing users to the SSV Labs Explorer ([https://explorer.ssv.network/](https://explorer.ssv.network/))
- Disable non-essential pages and dashboards while keeping the claim page fully operational

### 2. Claim Page Maintenance

- Keep the claim page live and functional at `ssvscan.io` until the domain has been transferred
- Apply minor bug fixes, dependency updates, and security patches as needed
- Provide community support for users with claim-related questions during this period

### 3. Domain Transfer to the SSV Foundation

- Transfer registration and ownership of `ssvscan.io` to the SSV Foundation
- Coordinate with the Foundation to configure redirects from these domains to the SSV Labs Explorer once the claim period concludes
- Provide all technical documentation needed for a clean handover

## Payment

Requested in **USDC** to the following address:

`0x0bc07134D7Ad6977bc12795485122FE234809d7e`
