Hello Bees,

Here’s an overview of Popula’s key progress in March 2023. Thank you all for your ongoing support and feedback, and stay tunes as we will keep improving and adding new features!

Highlight Events

Popula 101

Popula 101 is a series of online tutorial events. In this series, we have been giving you a full picture of the architecture and functionalities of Popula testnet and help you make the most of it. Beside learning tons of useful tips, all the participants will get a Popula POAP to signal your precious role in our development path!

In our first episode on March 15th, we talked about setting up a community and community management, the very first step for many visiting Popula.

In our second episode we talked about Engagement and content management which is the core activity for any community after successfully launching.

On March 29, during the third episode, we talk about Drips, our unique non-transferable fungible tokens issued by the Drip Protocol as a reward for all forms of engagement and interactions on Popula. And we are proud of this innovation, being one of the first projects leveraging this innovative token standard.

AMA/Twitter Space

In Feb, we had an podcast with Ready Layer One @ready_layer_one. Check here for the recap.

On Mar 3, we had an AMA with @NEAR_at_NIGHT.

On Mar 10, we had a twitter space hosted by @trevinvsnft, with the theme of exploring the potential of web3 for social media.

Product Update

In March, we radically improved the token-gating experience, added popup notifications to guide users better, and completely redesigned the Drip board page to make it more immediate and insightful.

● Improvements on token-gated content

With the latest update, when selecting the number of Drips required to access the content of a post, the percentage of qualified community members will be displayed in real-time. Additionally, you can now include a sneak peek for the public to attract their interest toward that gated post.

● Drips overview

You can now view your Total Drips distributed across different communities, from different types of interactions, and a heatmap of your daily Drip rewards. Also, total Drip earnings are now shown under each post, which indicates the popularity of this post. This allows you to track your impact and rewards in more detail, and encourages meaningful contributions.

● Reminders

Some new banners were added to remind users to join communities, post comments, refresh the post list, follow others, and more.

We also fixed some functions including: Group member adds, name settings, Pinning posts, NFT token displays, and Drips redeem.

On top of these new features already available, we are working on some exciting new ones, including: Reference, Drips Royalty, NFT module. Please stay tuned as we roll them out, and always feel free to let us know if you have any question, feedback or suggestion!

Statistics to Date

Our community is steadily growing, and so far we have 216 communities and 1052 members on the Popula testnet. Our Discord community has exceeded 2100 members this month.

Welcome more people to join Popula and we will continue encouraging content creation!
