[Proposal] Lisbon Hackathon Aug-Sept 12

Looks amazing! Per our conversation, would be necessary to get at least 1 dev involved in the Lisboa Hack Node. If your leads in Berlin do not pan out, let us know!

There also needs to build out a Challenge for the Hack Node to host and there is funding available per the Hack Node Open call for this:

  • Prize pool of x NEAR for their local hack node $5,000 This is the challenge money they can put up to the winners their judges/they select.
  • Register your Challenge here: [Open Call] Challenge Partners for MetaBUIDL (Aug27-Sep11)
  • The dev you select should be at least one of the judges for this Challenge, and ideations can happen here on the Forum for the judge(s) to select as the top submission - start a new Topic/Thread here on the Forum to host these ideations under this Global Hackathons subcategory with the “Lisboa Hack Node” mentioned in the subject line

The discussion of the challenge centering around the tokeneconomics of launching an Arroz token (the potential uses, the mechanics of it, etc.) seemed like a great start toward a challenge you could propose!

Let me and @chloe know if you need any further support and looking forward to an updated proposal with the above soon.

Once there’s a more solid budget accounting for the min. 1 dev, the requested prize pool access, etc. then we can discuss proceeding to next steps recarding that first payout for launch next week (in line with your timeline above).

Hi @jlwaugh , thanks for reaching out.

Just had a chat with @TRosario and i think we might need help on the technical side, so it would be setting up the overall challenge & finding suitable judges. We’ve got a really nice idea, just need to get the technical wording together

Here goes the proposal for the Hackathon Challenge created by Arroz Criativo.
Prepared and written by @tabear!

Creating a Use Case for Social Tokens

As the first physical space and association in Lisbon which is working with NEAR, we are looking forward to implementing our own social token. For a reference: our cultural association has around 9000 members in total, runs 7 events per week, works with volunteer & paid roles and offers studio and coworking spaces for artists in Lisbon.
In order to implement our own token we are opening a challenge for tokenomics experts!

Challenge:

Arroz Criativo is looking for a roadmap/plan on how to implement, use and distribute its own social tokens. What could the tokens be used for? How could liquidity be added? What would be a possible emission plan, market cap, total supply etc.? It should be a complete guide on the possibilities of social tokens which can also be used by other associations worldwide that would like to implement their own social token and are new to the crypto/token sphere.

Submission Requirements

  • Graphic elements/presentation (slides for ex.)
  • Possible use-cases
  • Using the according forum thread in the Arroz Criativo category in the NEAR gov. forum for participation/updates & uploading the created presentation

Sponsor
Arrozcriativo DAO

Judge Contact @StevenR

Any ideas on how to develop this further and help us create a great guide for helping infinite projects with Social Tokens.

Our challenge on the MetaBUIDL Airtable.

Hi @StevenR - makes sense that there’s been some slow-down as you find your dev, so as you’re working that out bear in mind that you can still post your payout for the first installment of 33% of your overall budget [as it is currently] to the CommunitySquad DAO so your DAO has funds to get you started.

I know you were prioritizing someone who is local but perhaps @yassine is willing and able to assist? Teleconferencing in could be an option!

Always want to connect our creative dev folks!

Hi team, just to update on the budget of this. @TRosario and me went through it today and updated.

Highlights are:

  • Originally we thought the budget was in NEAR and not $ so we designed our event for a 11-day budget which may of exceeded the global budget guidelines
  • Since the proposal and now, the value of NEAR has increased significantly, and we now have a better estimate of our costs which are lower (budget has been updated above) which has helped balance things.
  • We now estimate our total budget will be 1674.6NEAR which is more or less 7.5k€ / 9k$. We have already had a payout of 1139NEAR so will be submitting another once this has had approval.

@mecsbecs please have a read to get reacquainted and we’ll await your consensus :+1:t4:

Thanks all

Summary of First Week’s Lisbon Hackathon 27th Aug – 3th Sept

So after this first week of the Lisbon Hack Node we are really happy to report our implementations and hacks. The collectives and projects that were presented were mainly from the Lisbon City or surrounding areas like Almada.

Participants: Physically at Arroz Estúdios: 23 / Online: 4

We will provide all the registration done via Google Forms emails and Wallets in the end of the Hackathon.

Projects:

27th Aug - DLBC Lisboa – Associação para o Desenvolvimento Local de Base Comunitária de Lisboa

Direct translation would be Association of Local and Community Development of Lisbon, which is a funded project by the Portuguese government and Lisboa 2020. The project started in June and they have a 18th month project financed to create a Local Coin in the city of Lisbon.
They want to implement the local coin for social use and community-based projects that don’t have the ability to receive funding in Euros. Creating a circular economic and decentralize from the usual implementations of funding proposals, creating more open possibilities for associations that deal with social work and empower them.

Next steps: Meetings are being scheduled to brief their team, give presentations in Portuguese and explain more about blockchain technology and NEAR Protocol.

31st Aug – Gruta – Plataform / Label / Production

Gruta is an Almada/Lisbon project created in 2016 with the idea to create a plataform for more emergent Music Artists. Now with more than 90 Podcasts recorded in video and shared thought Youtube and social media, with around 57 000 views, it has created a big community and attracted totally different crowds and scenes. Creating and co-organizating with different collectives dozens of events throught the years, has also collaborated with Portugal City Halls and sponsorships to create and show their perspective with Cultural events.
Last year it expanded their work to exist as Record Label also. Now with 17 releases available online, they range from EP’s, Albums and Singles. It has grown with the contacts from artists, musicians and venue organizations.
Production was always one big aspect of the project, with renting logistics audio, video, services, technicians, consulting, communication, digital marketing and executive production

1st Sept – Mãe Solteira – Record Label, Booking Agency, Events Producer, Activism

Mãe Solteira does a very important job with the Feminist and Queer community, helping spread their skills and showing the need for their participation in world decision making questions.
It started last year, with a very firm schedule as releases, bookings, events and activism leads. It works in activism, creation of tools of information and investigation for the general population to participate. Giving back the differences and needs that need to be address. As Booking Agency it tries to create a plataform of engaging their artists with venues and other collectives. Producing big events with a very political and decentralization of power stance, disrupting the usual chain of command and prejudice we can still see on a daily basis.
They also have another branch of the collective called Post Carbon Collective that uses 3D simulations and virtual reality in a transhumanism topic and theme.

So far, we are cooperating with over 50 artists, labels or collectives, from all across Portugal, and we count around 500 shows produced and transmitted live, all of them available on Mixcloud.”

This project will be forward and continued in the Lisbon City Node.

2nd Sept – HOC - Hub de Oficinas Comunitárias – Advance of technology and tools in ONG’s and Social Communities

The project is born with the idea of developing technology to forward the decentralization and give the tools of optimization to social care institutions and ONG’s. The connections with a few institutions are already established and the work already deployed in the creation of dashboards and general tools for their specific project. Social innovation is a must as a tool of activism, so giving the communities ways of interpretation of their own rights, assets and value to empower them. Main goals are to achieve structure and finance to give options and opportunity’s that can scale to needs of each type of organization. The gap is huge and statistically there’s more than proof of a need to innovate in the social sector.
This project was developed in works with different institutions and not as a specific institution but the forward idea is to create as soon as possible identity for this idea. It was promised to be delivered in the following weeks.

Hack ideas already developed to be deployed:

  • Creation of a Social Token for the implementation, management and services related to the voluntary work to give incentive to the own project.
  • Use of already created tools that can be decentralized, community-based and transparent
  • Funding from internal and external partnerships for social innovation
  • Use of Bounties to implement task management and widening the network using NEAR and use of Blockchain Technology
  • Digital and financial capacitation to identities of Social Economy status and their public targets
  • Cultural, Communitarian and Institutional mediation using Web3.0 and blockchain technology
  • Services of reporting and analytics using Web 3.0 and blockchain technology
  • Official certified formation in economics and blockchain technology.

Next steps: Maintaining contact and introduce the full team to the NEAR Ecosystem in the next meetings. Presentation on the Forum and the creation of the DAO.

3rd of Sept – Arroz Criativo Challenge “Social Tokens and their Use Cases” & Summary Creation

  • Meeting with participant and mid review, directing ways and purpose broadness of the challenge in question. Evaluation of what has already been created.
  • Creation of documentation and summary to the work done until now in the Hackathon

This is a summary information from what I have gathered from extended meetings with the collectives. Please contribute to this ideas and way’s of getting us forward with our community.

This project’s will also be forward and continued in the Lisbon City Node.

In a responsability definition, I asked this collectives to deliver in the following week more information about the projects they have, which I will help in the construction using the current technology we have and I know off.
I also gave instructions for the creation of their own DAO’s and present their work of this forum, I will help them in this subject wherever I can :slight_smile:

@chloe @mecsbecs Please guide anyway we can improve the communication to this collectives with innovative ways and integrations to our NEAR Ecosystem.
