MintbaseDAO report for January
Guild : Mintbase
Facilitator : @marianeu
Highlights:
Friday 27th January - record in attendance of instagram live. 221 people joined .The live was held in portuguese.
Twitter has been doing great:
.
We are figuring out the mintbaseDAO roadmap with @mecsbecs soon next week, so prepare for that one
Since MintbaseDAO/Guild is reflecting on what it wants to make possible & how, the month of January was not the moooost active ever, but we had a lot of fun onboarding different projects.
For example the CasaT mentioned in the october funding proposa l was finally onboarded
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.
We finally opened their store:
Casa T, Center for Reception, Socialization and Transvestigender Autonomization, was created in response to the widespread and worsened housing crisis for transvestigender, immigrant and/or racialized people.
We are planning a series of workshops for the months of february and march which will be very exciting. The plan is to integreate these workshops with the Near Meets activation.
It’s always kind of hard to recall each activity done throughout the month, but I hope this shows we have been active not only inside of what is seen here on the forum.
Learnings:
A major roadblock is that the wallets now need initial funding. This makes ticketing events for absolute newbies so much harder.
Next Steps:
The real life workshops mentioned above, more real life events for more engagement.
Elaboration of new Bounties
What we have funded this month:
Let’s start with the translation of articles- which was a success.

This month we really tried our best to outsource articles abut mintbase, with medium success. @reginamintbase and I decided to only work with known journalists form now on. The time we spent revising articles was just too much. Felt like we were english teachers and the end result was not what we expected. We still paid out for the work done, and are now thinking on where to use it.
Bounty for writing articles from scratch:

20N each.
This was talked about with @caromintbase , as we are constantly in contact with people wanting to build on mintbase. For serious contacts we will be able to offer to financiate the opening of ones own store.

Bianca has been an angel and helping with the mintbasedao.community page
Now we have a new domain, we reimbursed her 2N for the domain change
52N were paid out to zeitwarp.near f or his excellent work in researching licenses and putting me in contact with professionals who will be able to assist in the process of elaborating appropriate license templates.
Mintbase.io will soon be integrating licenses for different NFT categories (art, music, photography). As such, a Mintbase minter would be able to pre-select the different licenses.
We would need someone to do the research and collect the most used and most adopted licenses in music, art and photography so we can integrate them on Mintbase.
Total 384,519N ~ 3933.63USD (feels wrong, considering Near was 18usd at the beginning of the month and now only 10usd the low USD value is logically explained.)
