Project Accounting:
We released a bounty for choosing 4 philosophical papers on Art, Philosophy, Culture, and/or Technology, and mint them as NFTs, in order to stimulate the philosophers to use the blockchain and the development of NFTs from writing material. We’ve chosen the papers through telegram and we confirmed it on astro.
We intended to mint 4 NFTs (50 copies each, half for the dao) from the chosen papers, with royalties and revenues divided between the philosophers and the dao, but only 2 writer minted the NFT for now, and one of them minted the image, and not the pdf - so the writer will have to do it again. They are going to mint it today or in the next days. Each writer who minted (two writers) received 100 usd in near.
Payout to the winners (4 members of the community receiving 100 usd in dai each. for now, just 2 received):

Updated Project Timeline:
The project was completed in the appropriate time, except for 2 NFTs, that are in production by the writers, and another NFT which was minted wrongly, but will be corrected.
Highlights and Final Products:
We could produce 4 papers on philosophy (we have 3 for now in the forum) and 2 NFTs on Mintbase (and 2 more are on the way, one nft link was already sent by a writer, but it did not work - so we are going to try again), with revenue and royalties split among the artist and the dao.
400 DAI distributed to the community (in fact, 200 for now)

Missing Alfonsotech’s full text (I found only the abstract).
Learnings:
The project was ok, but we had not so much time to develop it, so not every artist could make their NFTs in time, although all of them were able to write the papers in time, but one of them did not posted in the forum. For a text bounty, a fair amount of people participated. As it is difficult for writers and philosophers to start minting, and they had problems, we are thinking in having a person to do this job for all of our projects instead of letting the writers doing it.
