For this week’s web3 picks, keep a close eye on the Twitter account. We’re dropping a new playlist later today.


2. Stewardship proposal live - vote by Nov 7!

We recently put our stewardship proposal up for community discussion on Discord. DAO members (holders of the Founding Pass NFT) can now vote on the proposal.

It is the final stage of the governance committee model outlined in our recent Town Hall session.

The proposal includes:

  • The nomination of 3 stewards to help build governance rails for the community, be a touch point for project leads, and help members with proposals.

  • The institution of a governance committee that includes the core team and stewards.

  • A 2000 USDC fee to be allocated towards the stewards for the entire season. (~3 months)

Read the details here and vote by Nov 7.


3. Community Highlight notes: Brooke D.

In this week’s Community Highlights call, we learned more about Brooke D., the artist currently featured in our Community Gallery.

Brooke is a musician, songwriter, author, poet, teacher, psychic medium, and multidimensional artist. She spoke about being bold and courageous as an artist and shared that her “heart is bigger than her body”.

“I really believe artists are the raw nerve of society.” - Brooke D.

Brooke shared how she balances her multiple creative pursuits and the interplay between all of them. To her, creative expression is a “cyclical path not a straight line path.”

She seeks to always be experimenting and trying new things: “If you know what I'm doing next, then I'm doing it wrong". Brooke aims to not only create for the present moment but for the future. She emphasised how important it is to her to stay true to what she feels called to express rather than compromising to cater to trends: “What is popular doesn’t always mean what’s deep.”

Stay tuned for future Community Highlight calls and follow the Twitter account for updates.
