MetaBUIDL Hackathon started with a bang at the Opening Ceremonies , and our Challenge Partners have been supporting hackers who want to earn rewards by solving real problems. Various Hack Nodes organized kickoff events in cities around the world, including Near York, Mukachevo, San Francisco, Kano, Lisbon, and Bogota.
The submission deadline is extended to September 19, so there is plenty of hacking time left!

Hi @mecsbecs & @chloe
Following on from the August report… [Report] August report of the ZBG enough NEAR remains in the DAO treasury to cover most proposed activities.
Other proposed activities require no funding.
Social Media budgets are in place, and there are adequate funds for onboarding, mintbase, and physical meeting costs.
No reason to deploy telegram/discord as yet.
The only extra requests therefore are:

Review Proposals: The domain name sputnik.fund is for sale
Following up on last week’s post [NEAR Community Fund: The Vision of Community-Driven DAOs ]. Here is the first version of an evolving document on the Community Fund. We hope this document helps us keep you informed and allow us to consider your say in what and how we develop our Ecosystem.
We’d love your feedback and insight into how we can make this as clear, transparent, and pragmatic as possible.
The Creatives Astro DAO ’s purpose is to help support the creative Guilds/DAO’s within the NEAR ecosystem. Please submit a payout proposal to the Creatives Astro DAO if you are a “Creative Guild Leader” or if you do not see another relevant creative DAO to submit to
Review proposals: The domain name sputnik.fund is for sale
For the month of September 2021, we wanted to share an overview of the Creative’s DAO budget with the creative community so that we as the council (@chloe and I) can be held accountable.
Also, this serves to update the community on what else we are planning on funding as support and incentives for our Creative Guild Leaders.
Please also review and respond to our Creatives DAO’s OKRs for Q3 (July - September 2021), for which this budget was designed to support. This is our final budget for Q3 …
Hey everyone
Review Proposals: The domain name sputnik.fund is for sale
Thanks to everyone who shared their feedback on our first budget request !
The proposals just keep pouring in so as the council continues to evaluate and approve while the NEAR token price constantly changes we want to make sure we have enough to distribute funds in a more timely manner.
That said, we’re requesting an additional 2000 NEAR from The Community Squad DAO to reimburse NEAR Reddit Ops August Report . We just recently started meeting with them to transition them from the previous syste…

As per our monthly report , we have emphasized the fact that one of the core goals of the Sandbox is to provide Sandboxers with the opportunity to engage with the existing NEAR projects that need extra support. So far, various…

PLEASE NOTE that for September’s rewards we have made adjustments to not just the number of memes that can be claimed monthly, but have capped the number of infographics; we have also lowered the reward amount that can be claimed for the Social Media Force category so we are focusing on rewarding quality engagement social media accounts
Feedback:
This month contributors were encouraged to fill in the survey about the functioning of the OWS. Here we have summarized the highlights results. N= 47
When asked why they joined the OWS, the most frequent answers were:
To earn some NEAR (23,5%)
To get to know the NEARVerse better (21,2%)
To learn about the blockchain (19,7 %)

Although earning rewards in included in the top answers, we see that it is NOT the only dominating reason for joining the OWS. This indicates that offering a s…

Recently, our Community Squad DAO received 65,000 NEAR from NEAR Foundation to be distributed across three DAO verticals. Going forward, these individual DAOs will be requesting funds directly. Also, we had to reduce the number of council members.
Our team is focused on supporting hackers, while coordinating plans for NEARcon, promoting community engagement, collaborating on strategic projects with Education DAOs, and preparing for Q4 by discussing OKRs.
