Retrospective of 3rd Quarter Objectives and Key Results
While this target was definitely not hit for each Guild, many of the Guilds that received funding from the Creatives DAO were using DAOs for Guild management for the first time. The hope is that as these Guilds expand to astrodao.com, this “10+ on-chain interactions/mo” target will be more attainable.
There are currently 19-21 Guilds/Communities that are being funded by the Creatives DAO.
Many changes took place over the quarter with respect to how funding was distributed. (funding moved from being quoted in NEAR → being quoted in USD
Funding is still being distributed in NEAR tokens for now and there are on-chain transactions for each NEAR distribution.
This value was ~$2000-$4000 USD/mo at the price of NEAR at the beginning of Q3. The current maximum budget for each Guild to request is $5000 USD per month and with ~20 Guilds, that is a monthly budget for the Creatives DAO of ~$100k USD. (Our busiest month was August with a budget of ~25k NEAR)
Budget for July / Budget for September
Nxm is probably the leader within this area with collabs with multiple other projects, most notably DAO Drops/Bittrees and Emanate
There have been various examples of Creative Guilds collaborating with each other over the quarter:
- [APPROVED] Rental of the Bobby's Palace parcel in CV for cultural streams
- [Approved] 35m long wall mural & NFTs (Arroz Criativo & Graffiti DAO collaboration)
- [ CC DAOS FOLDER ] - A place to upload our material
Hoping to see more DAO ↔ DAO collaboration in future months
4: Creative Community Building:
Weekly meetups are still happening on our Telegram, tipping is happening, and there are now 5 council members to support management.
There was one quarterly town hall in Q3
