@Chloe okay, I understand. I will give my best to collect all the ideas and projects. Pretty sure I forgot some though. They do not yet have forum handles… But here it goes:
-
Inna Dominus is a project created by a women named Aina. She sent me this 30 m ago:
“Inna Dominus has an AstroDao now! We just set it up a week ago. We have some amazing women who have joined as members — lawyers, coders, film makers…
It has been really amazing. So now we have to set up a system to both teach them about minting (guess who we are doing that with! [MEEEEE @marianeu]) and then we have to help them to set up stores.
Stuff like that. Too much for a message but we will update you guys on progress and stuff this weekend in a one pager.”
I do not know how much funding they will be asking for etc… -
Busy Work Beats is driven by a guy named carlin and he teaches people how to produce beats. He has a big youtube channel and onboarded many people to CV and Blockchain Ideas. Now a community of +2000 people migrated to Discord. Next step is to set him up with an own store, an open store and some incentives to onboard as many people as possible to mintbase.

I am in contact with a House here in Lisbon called Casa T. It is a project that adopts trans people and migrants that have trouble finding a home. There are many performers and artists living in that space. I am still figuring out how we can make that work.

I am in contact with a person named tommy from mexico, and a couple (jose and vanessa) from venezuela. Met them through the Metagame
We are thinking about projects that use mintbase tech to create smart contracts with default revenues and royalties going to native people there. Jose told me about people he know, close to his house, that have suffered immensely with the strong rain. The bridge that gives access to the rest of the country has suffered immensely, it is not possible to cross. He wants to set up real life events of music &/or food and run that through mintbase and near. Tommy thinks similar about things closer to him, in mexico. We are in a group and have weekly calls… -
Personally I am involved in onboarding a group of 50 people here in Lisbon, most of them with migrant and trans identities, that produce a lot of valuable stuff. We have a whatsapp group and too many ideas. It goes from music, to performances, to anthropology, to fashion design, architecture, 3d design, etc. Not sure yet about how that will go down but there is a lot of talking happening.

I am thinking about starting something for journalists with @reginamintbase . As she is now also working for mintbase community
and has a degree in journalism, we are thinking about how to integrate independent journalism to NEAR and mintbase. We want create a place where we can authenticate journalists in difficult situations - marked with censure, oppression, etc - where they can then publish safe and anonymously and still get funding.
Pretty sure I forgot a lot of stuff, but that is all I can give you at this Saturday evening heh
