SOCIAL: Go beyond the virtual community. With the objective of bringing NEAR’s functioning to public and field knowledge, Octópode dao intends to externalize its work to communities, peripheries, schools, community centers, NGOs, associations, collectives and other forms of social associations so that the external public NEAR has access to artistic production and enjoyment, both allowing access to the arts developed by the octopus as well as the knowledge of this virtual community. 10% of the value of all funds received from that date will be allocated to a social portfolio, from which the value will be withdrawn every quarter and will benefit families, NGOs, people in vulnerable situations, or social projects focused on art.
