At OpenDAO, we’re excited to announce the launch of Open Grants.

“A DAO can only ever be as strong as the community.”

In recognising this, to incentivise community led development, OpenDAO wants to issue forth what is essentially an “open bounty” on innovative and creative projects for people who want to build with OpenDAO.

Some of these will be offered by the team directly, some to be voted forth by the community.

The #open-grants channel in our Discord server is fast growing, with community members bringing forward their own ideas of cool side projects, such as:

💡 A collection of NFTs, offering perks for holding the complete set.
💡 Online puzzle hunts, with lucrative rewards.
💡 And other great out of the box ways to grow the platform!

Have you got your own great idea for something you’d like to build with OpenDAO?

Come chat with the team!

All members of the DAO are welcomed, and encouraged, to present their project ideas that may be funded under Open Grants.

Currently, there is still one team issued grant available, so if you’ve got some web3 UI skills, be sure to check it out!

It just might be the easiest 500x $OPEN you ever earned.

Note: Open Grants bounties will be paid in $OPEN. The exact amount will vary with the complexity and ingenuity of the proposal, to be fairly decided before green lighting the grant.
