The month of February was a bit of a busy month for NDC, and therefore I will need a little more time to create a report for NDC for February
I’m Dk, a House of Merit (HoM) member, and I would like to present my work to the NDC. It’s been a pleasure working with all of you, the NEAR ecosystem members, congress, and OGs!
Here are some of the tasks that I worked on in February!
I arranged multiple calls and attended all of them, totalling more than 38 in February! (Scheduling all calls based on the grassroots dao team members, HoM speaker, and PoC’s preferred time, gathering each grassroots dao’s email account list, and storing all details and emails in a spreadsheet for future reference!)
HoM sync with Grassroot Dao

February, 24: 38 calls I have attended and scheduled during the February month [with different grassroots dao teams, HoM weekly sync, NDC 3rd Parties call, etc!]
In February, I attend all CoA meetings and participated in discussions on proposals created on Astro++. I track and record the activities of all CoA members and also try to be in touch 24/7 with HoM and TC as PoC to provide information and any other assistance to the NDC.
Here is the total activity of CoA members for February:
I voted and reviewed the confirmed HoM proposals before imposing VETO on the proposals.
Feb 24: 1/3 (passed at the CoA meeting to reject the VETO proposals, but did not have time to vote due to moving) [Vote CoA]
Meetings
I attended all CoA meetings in February, one meeting was canceled.
Feb 24: 3/3 [CoA Weekly Sync]
Conclusion
I would like to add that I continue to do my best for the good of the NEAR ecosystem and to be available 24/7 without holidays and weekends for NDC, so you can always contact me and I will do my best to assist, also I believe that not enough work has been done to request an additional payment of $2,500 for the PoC role, so I’m going to request a base payment.
[Report] House of Merit Member rexux - February 2024
Hey everyone! This is rexux from the House of Merit, and I’m here to share my work report for February 2024.
Voting Report:
In February, the HOM conducted 33 voting polls covering various DAOs, direct funding requests, and other congress-related matters.
My participation rate in these polls was around 76%.
In the FEB Month, I support multiple DAOs including Globe DAO, MDAO, Degen DAO, AC DAO, Service DAO, Research DAO, and direct funding requests like Autonomous
Additionally, I welcomed new DAOs like Freelancer DAO and Afrika DAO into the NDC.
With the upgrade to premium ClickUp this month, I took charge of revamping our task management system.
I created completely new sections to manage HOM data related to Astra++ Polls, Telegram polls, Proposal Pipeline (GDAO and Direct Requests), HOM General tasks, HOM members’ Performance reiview, and fed all the data accordingly.
Furthermore, I created template for Grassroots reports to streamline reporting processes.
That wraps up my report for February. If you have any questions or feedback, please don’t hesitate to reach out to me via Telegram (@rexux_in) or email (rexuxhere@gmail.com).

Transparency Commission Monthly Report - February Overview
In February, my involvement with the Transparency Commission encompassed a wide range of activities aimed at maintaining the principles of transparency, accountability, and efficient governance within the NDC.
Attended all scheduled TC meetings to discuss ongoing activities, evaluate progress, and plan future actions.
Participated in additional TC meetings focused on addressing specific issues, complaints, and urgent matters that required immediate attention.
Conducted over 8 preliminary reviews of various reports, assessing the issues raised and determining the need for further investigation or immediate action.
Undertook an in-depth analysis of more than 10 reports, which involved a detailed examination of the facts, context, and implications of each case.
Played an instrumental role in creating the final comprehensive report for the TC, summarizing the month’s activities, findings, resolutions, and recommendations for future actions.
Actively participated in voting on all proposals presented during the month, contributing to the democratic decision-making process and ensuring that all decisions were made in the best interest of transparency and accountability.
Reviewed Conflict of Interest (COI) declarations from TC members to ensure adherence to ethical standards and to prevent any potential conflicts that could compromise the integrity of the TC’s work.
Engaged in meetings with the Foundation’s legal team to ensure that all actions, decisions, and resolutions were in compliance with legal standards, ethical guidelines, and best practices.
Effectively addressed and resolved complaints regarding Marieke, focusing on diplomatic efforts that led to a voluntary resignation, thereby emphasizing the importance of resolving conflicts amicably and maintaining team cohesion.
February was a highly productive month, during which I dedicated over 40 hours to fulfilling my responsibilities.
During March, I participated in every call managed by HoM, i also participated in some others call with Community, GDAO, and interview manage by ServiceDAO
I have attended 75% of total meeting 6/8 and missed the other 2 during my trip for Eth Seoul & BUIDL Asia in collaboration with NF event team
Pro actively involve in every discussion and currently still working on ongoing cases
Pro actively involve in memo and improvement needed + discuss on room to improve with the community ( what’s their pain about NDC and what to improve )
There have been three cases submitted during March. Since we fixed most of the reports submitted in February, I had to abstain from one of the cases for the March report due to a conflict of interest between me and the reported parties.
Notes: Can’t send screenshot of spreadsheet report since it’s not updated yet for TC
Participation in on-chain votings. I participated in voting for 100% of proposals within the designated timeframe. However, due to incorrect proposal finalization, not all of my votes were counted. Nevertheless, my votes are still recorded on the blockchain.
