OpenGov is now live on Moonriver via runtime 2100, which just passed community governance. Part of the updated democracy process involves using the Moonbeam Community Forum to present ideas, start discussions, and receive feedback.

As you know, community decision-making is a key part of Web3. OpenGov is a great new tool to further empower voices in the community to improve the Moonriver (and, if approved by the community, Moonbeam) network. You probably also know that using new tech can have a learning curve, so let’s have some fun while we upgrade our communication and increase token-holder engagement.

The Challenge:

The goal of this challenge is to help the community understand some of the many opportunities they have to participate in the governance process by using the Moonbeam Community Forum. Information about how and why to participate is being shared on Twitter. Join @ThinkWildCrypto in exploring the Forum to unlock its features, learn about recent and ongoing proposals, vote, and have some fun!

Details:

This challenge is open to everyone who is a part of Moonriver and Moonbeam.

Users are invited to register for the Moonbeam Community Forum and perform tasks to unlock features, and earn badges.

Everyone who earns the “Basic” badge (Trust Level 1) is invited to a virtual pizza party! The top 10 badge earners will get their pizza for the party ON US!

*NOTE: since the community is global (and we would never want to order the WRONG kind of pizza) the prizes will be distributed in the form of 10 prizes for 25 USDC each.

Why Pizza?

The Champions were hungry after completing the quests! Lol

We listened and are hungry in this bear market, so let us buy you dinner!

A Note to Moonriver Champions:

We see you active in the Moonbeam Discord Quest Channel. You have been waiting for utility, and as you can imagine, the volatility in the world of crypto lately has kept us all very busy. As a small reward for your bravery, you will receive a badge in the Forum for having the discord title of Moonriver Quest Champion.

Ambassadors and Senior Ambassadors will also receive a bonus badge. These badges will add to your total, increasing your chance of being in the top 10 and getting free pizza!
