MetaBuild Hacker DAO

Collective Participation

Are you hacking with NEAR in the metaverse? Keep reading to learn how you can join the MetaBuild Hacker DAO, and help our community experiment with Pingbox, a notification system for DAOs and other applications running on NEAR!

Each member of this MetaBuild council will receive a special NFT (courtesy of @Samtoshi_F_Baby), which represents valid hackathon participation. Also, we might create more NFTs and even launch a social token, $HACK, so DAO participants could vote on rewarding hackers from the DAO account.

Hackathon Team Formation:

The illustrious @zavodil created this amazing, open-source platform, where hackers can discover projects, join a team, share ideas, and start building!

Join the NEAR Discord:

Connect with potential collaborators in the “Hackathons” category, share ideas, and get your questions answered. Be sure to add roles to your account in order to access more channels with opportunities matching your skills and interests.

Explore Challenges:

Responding to this open call, partners introduced specific bounties for solutions they hope to see built during the hackathon. Each offering $5000 worth of NEAR, these challenges are intended to reward hackers who address real needs in our ecosystem.

Hackathon Guild

Recently, members of the NEAR ecosystem proposed the formation of a Hackathon Guild, which supports community-driven organizations producing events for developers. Learn more and keep an eye out for opportunities to contribute!

Hack Nodes

Local / regional communities are starting to coordinate their own events around global hackathons like MetaBUIDL. NEAR Foundation and the Hackathon Guild provide financial, operational, promotional, technical, and emotional support <3

Hacker DAOs

Once you have a team, you might want to experiment with a DAO to coordinate and cooperate with other hackathon participants and members of the global NEAR ecosystem. Transparency makes it easier to gather feedback and invite more people to contribute.

For example, hackers could submit proposals to fund their DAOs in order to reward contributors for incremental developments. These project-specific “Hacker DAOs” may continue growing after this event. Who knows ~ maybe judges will appreciate thoughtful approaches to governance?
