Back in mid-2019, the MetaCartel was mostly comprised of your favorite miscellaneous telegram chat rooms. We had a Libra working group known as ‘Taco Team 6’ lead by Mitch Kowsowski and other meme channels. MetaCartel DAO was still yet in its early pre-launch phases with not much to show for. We had a small but vibrant community and have since gone very far.

Now: February 2020.

Today, the MetaCartel ecosystem is its own metaverse of DAOs, working groups, media productions, and teams attempting to build and discover Web 3 usecases.

What is MetaCartel? Who are we?

MetaCartel is a community of dapp developers, creatives and builders. We collaborate with each other on projects and operate various DAOs including a grants fund where we provide funding to adventurers looking to experiment with new dapp usecases.

The key projects in our community also include:

🌶 MetaCartel DAO: DApp grants fund with over 60+ DAO members and has deployed over 60,000 USD in funding now to over 16+ projects.

We are proud to have all these teams at our backs.
