A

All right, what is up near fam? It is uh Chad lamon content creator with near Foundation. If you didn't know I'm with the all legendary Peter here, that's with near week and if you're living under a rock and don't know about near week, Peter's gonna give you a sick, Deep dive into it and uh why you should know about it. If you don't.

B

So new week started in April last year uh as a Weekly Newsletter that Recaps what goes on in the ecosystem, because I was lacking a source of information myself I wanted to get to know the ecosystem. I wanted to Deep dive understand what was actually moving and I couldn't find the information. So it's.

A

Nowhere exactly, except for near week,.

B

We're doing our best right then, and then I just started doing that and it evolved into being a much bigger project than I ever imagined. To be honest,.

A

um Everyone loves it, so it's basically the best Weekly Newsletter you can get of. What's going down in the ecosystem projects, the most pop-in hype stuff. Is there appreciate.

B

It yeah, so we started building out a Twitter, promoting projects, educating our audiences and just in general, trying to make a platform where the ecosystem can speak from. So we really see it as our purpose to we're not necessarily Specialists within D5 Etc, but we really want to create that Common Ground, be the social layer of the ecosystem and help everyone get to present.

B

What they're doing- and you know, collaborate like we're all about collaboration and introducing projects to each other, because we think it's so important for the growth of the ecosystem that we work together towards a common goal right, which is getting more users getting more traction and just getting.

A

Our stuff out there right, you guys, have services to offer as well right. We do so.

B

We help ecosystem projects reach the community, so we work around with different formats such as doing Twitter threads, including people on Twitter spaces. So they can talk about their projects, uh writing up native content as well, and obviously we have the newsletter where people can get featured in too so the way the newsletter works is actually it's.

B

It's a curated content piece where contributors can submit to our Dao, so people send news links to adao and then, if that Proposal with that link, gets approved, you're rewarded, 0.5 near so actually all the information we have in the newsletter is a source from the community, and we give that we give that value back to them, because they're actually helping us do the product.

B

We distribute it right and we Market it, and so we're really looking into ways that we can work around and using daos as a framework for operating as a legally compliant entity. So that are some of the thoughts that we're looking at right. Now, how do we actually scale the current setup we have, so we have different platforms or different one project, actually that we're working on at the moment utilizing soon called funder, which will it has a bunch of different kyc. It has kyc, it has asynchronous syncing, so projects that wanna.

B

If you want to get a grant, you can actually submit your application through that program book. A calendly call provide all the kyc information and then you're basically ready to go. If people from the dial press the button and say yeah, we should Grant this guy and then the process like start rolling, so we're looking into ways that we can help scale um Grant distributions in general and help the ecosystem flourish even more within our expertise. Obviously, so.

A

What Dao are you guys using to uh to do this on so we're, obviously using astrodial sweet dude, that's insane! How are you loving, nircon this year compared to like last year? How was it all.

B

Right, like I'm still like I'm still trying to sort of fathom what happened like you know, last year was intimate. It was special, but this is this is like you know. It's.

A

Blown up, dude, yeah, he's good.

B

Such a good vibe such a cool venue, so many good events, so many good talks, the crowd people are friendly, connecting seeing people in real life. You know it's been a long time sitting behind the screen. Actually reconnecting in real life. I must say like it's just this is so incredibly valuable for everyone for the ecosystem as a whole. You know we're gonna leave even more confident than when we arrive right like and that's that's. What's going to get us going, yeah.

A

Yeah is there anything else, you'd like to let the near community and just the people at home to know Peter? Now they finally get to see a little more of your face. They get to see near week. Is there anything you'd like to you can to grab the mic and and say whatever man so.

B

Definitely check out our new website. We just launched and Rebrand uh www.com in the future in the very near future, actually we're launching a staking node version 2 in collaboration with kutamo, so we're going to be able to distribute three different tokens um together with near rewards, so we're looking for partners in that regard.

B

If anyone wanna, uh if anybody, if any projects want to work with us, hit us up inbox, always open if you're an ecosystem project looking for support, let us know, and in general, if you have any feature requests Etc hit us up, we're all about expanding this platform, helping League system.
