Any issue that you need done is a good candidate for a funded issue, provided that:\n\n* It’s open today.\n* The repo README clearly enumerates how a new developer should get set up to contribute.\n* The task is well defined.\n* The end-state of the task is well defined.\n* The pricing of the task reflects (market rate * complexity) of the task.\n* The issue is on the roadmap, but does not block other work.\n\nTo get started with funded issues today, it might be good to start small.  Is there a small bug that needs fixed?  An issue that’s been open for a while that no one is tackling?  An administrative task?\n\nPost your issue on the [Issue Explorer](https://gitcoin.co/explorer).\n\n# Project Repos\n\n* [GIPs](https://github.com/gitcoinco/GIPs) - Gitcoin Improvement Proposals\n* [web](https://github.com/gitcoinco/web) - This is the website that is live at gitcoin.co\n* [smart_contracts](https://github.com/gitcoinco/smart_contracts) - Where funded issues are stored and indexed.\n* [browser-extension](https://github.com/gitcoinco/browser-extension) - The browser extension for browsing bounties natively on github.com\n* [ios](https://github.com/gitcoinco/ios) - An iOS app for browsing Funded Issues.\n* [skunkworks](https://github.com/gitcoinco/skunkworks) - Experimental stuff.\n* [creative](https://github.com/gitcoinco/creative) - Creative / design stuff.\n* [community](https://github.com/gitcoinco/community) - community stuff.\n* [CodeSponsor](https://github.com/codesponsor/codesponsor) - CodeSponsor.io [more about Gitcoin / CodeSponsor partnership](https://medium.com/gitcoin/code-sponsor-gitcoin-oss-sustainability-5684c4adf4b4)\n\n\n\n# Adding your token to Gitcoin.\n\nHave an ERC20 compatible token that you'ud like to add support for?
