📊 QF MATCH ESTIMATE (Gitcoin GG24, 50 donors):

QF Matching Calculator

Quadratic Funding rewards projects with many small donors over few large ones:

# See how adding more donors affects your match
web3-grant-tracker estimate-match \
  --project "my-project" \
  --round gitcoin-gg24 \
  --donor-count 100 \
  --avg-donation 10

# Output:
# sqrt(10) * 100 donors = 316 QF units
# Estimated match: $1,200–2,800 (depends on pool)
# Getting to 200 donors would 2x your match!
