Thanks for the feedback, I’ve considered some of those options, but found this to be the most straightfoward channel to start with. Nonetheless I’ll give them a try :)

<p>I'm currently very interested in getting deeper in web3 and blockchain development. I will have this masters dissertation to which I'd like to propose a project that allowed me to develop some sort of infrastructure or dapp for the Cardano ecosystem.
I have particular interest in infrastructures such as bridges and was thinking about proposing a prototype for a bridge between Cardano and another blockchain such as Cosmos or Polkadot. I know this may be a daunting development process, and definitely not a &quot;one man job&quot;. However, do you think this could be a somewhat interesting project to approach from a proof of concept perspective? As a means to engage in this development field, as well as eventually adding value to the ecosystem?</p>
<p>Let me know your thoughts on this, and any suggestions or feedback will be more than welcome!</p>
<p>Thanks!</p>

So in summary, you are wondering whether or not it would be worth it to do a project where the goal is to build a bridge between Cardano and Cosmos or Polkadot?

Welcome to the community. While this stack exchange may not be a good fit for questions that open themselves up for rather subjective answers, I figured this topic (***would people find this project interesting***) may come up often enough to warrant a compilation of resources to better answer and pursue such undertaking.

**Project Catalyst** ([introduced in 2020](https://iohk.io/en/blog/posts/2020/09/16/project-catalyst-introducing-our-first-public-fund-for-cardano-community-innovation/)) is a fund for community innovation. You could gauge the interest on various Cardano community channels (official Telegram, several discord servers, the weekly Project Catalyst town hall, reddit etc) or post a proposal right away on [ideascale](https://cardano.ideascale.com/) during the proposal stage of a Project Catalyst fund. The community-run site <https://cardanocataly.st/> has further information and links to additional resources.
