Our general goal is to increase community engagement in using network (that reflects on on-chain metrics on DappRadar), and to raise awareness of the Near ecosystem across web3-communities. For that we create educational media content, develop apps and Tg-bots, and organize regular online events in socials.
In July we’re aimed to adapt Hunters’ technical development and content production to the NEAR network by organizing diverse activities and events.
Specifically, we plan to perform:

– Research, analysis, and testing dapps on NEAR;
– Connection with the NEAR ecosystem’ projects for inviting them to “How it Works” AMA sessions;
