Hello, everyone!
No reports were published on my behalf since I got onboarded as a Creatives DAO moderator, and due to the difficulties I encountered during the first months of being onboarded, they never went online. Therefore, here are my monthly reports.
Hello, Creatives!
It was our first month in this role. Although we are kind of familiar with the processes, experiencing them firsthand is still different. We had the chance to see how diverse we are when making decisions and verdicts, yet it also allowed us to see things from different points of view. Hectic is the right word to describe June, as we are managing our respective local communities while doing reviews and tasks, but challenges are what make it worth trying.
Actions:
I am thankful for the trust and opportunity to work with these amazing people. Looking forward to bringing more value to the ecosystem!
Love and light,
K
Hello, Creatives!
We’re back after another month has passed! As we try to experiment and document the V.2 of Creatives DAO in my community, this month went a bit harsh on my side. Left and right internal challenges that took a tremendous toll on my well-being that lasted for a couple of weeks and affected my performance (where previous councils of my guild used gaslighting and spreading inaccurate, malicious information as much as they could about me). I was advised to create a report about it to disclose bad actors in the community, yet didn’t do so as I was tainted with compassion and distress.
This is also the final month with our ancestors (old moderators). As they share their knowledge with us, I am incredibly honored and humbled to work with them, and at the same time, I am motivated to work with the rest of the team to lead Creatives DAO during the future months!
Actions:
Excited for what August can bring. Let’s get it on!
Love and light,
K
Ciao, Creatives!
Here we are again, reaching another month stronger as a community! We received a humongous amount of proposals this month, and I must admit that the workflow is much better than the ones we had previously. I’m glad to say that Trello did wonders! 
There’ve been a couple of internal deliberations with proposals, nonetheless, the approved ones are truly worthy.
We discussed proposals, held community calls, contacted former moderators, and arranged various events to boost Creatives DAO’s media exposure!
Each day we grew more confident being in this role. Looking forward to each day!
Love and light,
K
Ciao, Creatives!
Together with the other mods, we qualified to represent Creatives DAO and its community at NEARCon this year. As we downsized the mods team a few months ago, approving proposals was indeed challenging as most of us were traveling, but we somehow made it through. We appreciate the patience you all gave us, and you all rock it!
We also met the old moderators and several key players in the ecosystem, from whom we gathered some insights. This is also the first time 171 studios were brought to the table and examined the possibilities of working together in the future.
We represented Creatives DAO at quests outside NEARCon, where we saw firsthand how Creatives DAO-funded initiatives are operating in real life. I was astounded! If we are just able to attend these events and realize how much it impacts the mass adoption campaign through creative highlights, you’ll probably think the same! We are not limited to on-chain transactions!
While attending events, the moderators hosted the community call together. With the 4 of us (Blua, Sahil, me, and Will. Paul wasn’t with us for NEARCon 2022), we’re able to sync our thoughts and strategies on a personal level, even reviewing some of the proposals together. We also had a chance to strengthen the bond of Creatives DAO to the ecosystem’s community verticals, and I hope this is a start of a good collaboration.
NEARCon 2022 introduced us to the experience of meeting projects and people together. Honestly am quite anxious about how the remaining days will unfold, yet optimistic.
Thank you for once again showing us the community’s support!
Love and light,
K
Ciao a tutti!
Since NEARCon ended, things have swayed. Temporary halting of funding was announced, there’ve been sleepless nights to deliberate proposals on how we can move forward (which were both presented in the forum), and internal conflicts as we navigate the restructuring processes. Respective proposals had faced some resistance and feedback from various community contributors, which were also used to fine tune them.

This report will be used to request a remuneration of $4000 for the two months of the CreativesDAO Moderation role.
Ciao, everyone!
Hope you all celebrated the holidays well, and wishing you a prosperous 2023! Another year of us being together - IMAGINE! The mods team is greatly humbled by all of your support and for standing with us during difficult times. Rest assured, we are making great efforts to ensure that the funding resumes with much alignment with NF Goals and to contribute to the goal of onboarding 1B users to the ecosystem!
Actions:
Hold on tight, we’re about to enter the most exciting part!
Love and light,

Hello @kc_sollano ! Any updates from NF side? Who is a point of contact at NF , because some artists are looking for support. Thanks.
Hey, Dacha! We’ve been in contact primarily with Shreyas and Osaze. We are also in touch with several from funding team.
Aside from NEAR, all the things we are doing are for the community. Once the funding resumed, we can once again support the community with their initiatives. Yet even at this moment, Creatives DAO mods are giving their support to the collective be it moral or other aspect aside from funding.
We are 1-2 meetings away from our continuation.
your work is great, it deserves to be appreciated 
February 2023 Report
How have you been? I hope you all are doing well! February was a productive month with a lot of things accomplished. Was able to represent Creatives DAO in some local events and create partnerships that might help us with the ongoing campaign of 1 billion users! 
This month I also stepped down with DAOs I counseled to put more emphasis on Creatives DAO development aside of it being a conflict of interest if I stay.
Actions:
March will be more hectic for all of us as we finally get things running once again. We’ll be awaiting your proposals, and if you need help, you can message me in Telegram to assist you! One message away!

[Report] CREATIVES DAO JUNE FUNDING REPORT
Took on the responsibility of serving as the primary liaison between the community and the Social Media Company managing the Creatives DAO’s presence on platforms such as LinkedIn, Facebook, and Instagram. This collaboration will ultimately result in the publication of KPIs that have been generated based on activities and engagements on these social media platforms.
Continuing with exceptional efforts, retain the momentum of commendable work.
During the month of July, our internal operations have been bustling with numerous activities that have demanded the complete focus and dedication of the trustees. Despite the hectic schedule, the oneness and enthusiasm of the community, as well as the individuals we engage with, have made it a bearable and enjoyable experience. This period has been filled with endless learning opportunities and unparalleled encounters, making it an enriching and delightful journey for all involved.
So here’s my contributions for the month:
It’s been a busy month in August, but I’m happy to wrap it up knowing that it’s been a productive and successful one, all for the benefit of NEAR, Creatives DAO, and its community.
With the upcoming election, I urge everyone to cast their votes for candidates who are not only qualified for the position but also have a sincere commitment to serving the NEAR ecosystem, driving its progress, nurturing the community, and ensuring fair decision-making.
Thanks to everyone who campaigned with us for IAH, we managed to be in the top 3 on the IAH onboarding dashboard!
Stay NEAR, stay CREATIVES!
