RFC: Should we launch a Thousand Cores program?

We wholeheartedly agree with this statement, and we think Polkadot needs to have a wider range of options for builders to deploy with just a few clicks. The landscape of the Ethereum ecosystem shows that 1-click deployment solutions are lately a go-to for builders, as they dramatically reduce the risk and complexity of deploying.

As mentioned earlier, however, these solutions have to come accompanied with a range of tools out-of-the-box for them to be truly successful. And Polkadot has unique propositions, like Coretime, that need to be carefully catered for.

We built a PoC before where anyone can, with three clicks, deploy a template and have a Parachain running. Once running, you can manage your Coretime needs, and even dry-run runtime upgrades with our Chopsticks integration. Thank you @alexdimes by the way for using our solution, we really appreciate it :heavy_heart_exclamation:

Our end goal is to help with all the above, and make sure more builders can easily join this ecosystem. We have been working on a proposal, and we will be opening a discussion on the Polkadot Treasury by this week, so we are looking forward to openly discussing it with everyone!
