CREATIVES DAO MONTHLY FUNDING REQUEST
DAO Introduction:
DAO: Astro
Target: the-auction.sputnik-dao.near
Total Requested Funding Amount: $2000
Projects & Timelines:
The Auction is having it’s beta launch on mainnet soon! For the launch we will have a few closed auctions that are open only to community members that are holding a special whitelist NFT 
.
We had a post recently go out about TA from @kodandi: The Auction — Introduction. This is the year of NFTs on NEAR. In… | by The Auction - Secondary Marketplace | Mar, 2022 | Medium
As we get closer to the beta launch on mainnet, TA DAO would like to request $2000 in NEAR tokens in order to collect unique 1/1 NFTs from Paras and Mintbase. These NFTs that will sit in our DAO NFT treasury.
Our DAO will then set up the closed auctions directly from our Astro DAO on The Auction platform. WL NFT holders will be able to bid on these NFTs and collect them if they win .
This will also be a great way to set up some more custom function calls to support the creative NEAR ecosystem. Once we have the flow ready to set up an auction from our DAO, we will have this card added to the Astro platform 
.
Anything else the Creatives DAO Council should know?
The Auction public alpha launch on testnet is coming soon! Please feel free to get your free testnet NEAR account here: NEAR Wallet
Also, you’ll need some NFTs in order to use our testnet secondary sale marketplace. You can create testnet NFTs:
- Mintbase: https://testnet.mintbase.io/
- Paras: https://testnet.paras.id/
Once you have your testnet NFTs, you’ll be able to bring them over to the auction’s secondary marketplace on testnet and try and win yourself a Walk spot by helping the platform test and get ready for beta (mainnet)
