We constantly organised and managed rewarded public Bounties and Team tasks on Dework: ( we have 1112 finalized, rewarded and documented tasks & bounties to date ) https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1ecMb5NO4g9A55rMM-wrO0gh-fvdsPcd8CiF1yFmo-ZI/edit?usp=sharing

Further we discovered that rewarded Bounties are a great way to attract Ethereum DAO participants to Cardano and onboard them to the Cardano Blockchain via rewarded Bounties. Nice outcome, ETH DAO participants create Cardano Wallets to receive Ada rewards ( we only accept Cardano Wallets, no Binance or other exchange wallets ) example:

Further we explore new kind of Bounties ( So far explored Bounty use cases )

  • Joining community Events
  • Timestamp recordings
  • Writing Articles
  • Pre Assess Proposals
  • Translate CIPs

We further developed the Treasury and accounting systems and are on the way to evolve the systems into a fully open-sourced dApp. So far, we accomplished to initiate, maintain and develop a fully transparent and public accounting system which allows everyone to have full insights on any incoming and outgoing assest at the Swarm Fund ( On Chain & Off Chain ) ( Ada + Native Assets & NFTs ) Main - https://github.com/treasuryguild Discord - https://discord.gg/6jk8mVuYqA Gitbook - https://treasury-guild.gitbook.io/catalyst-swarm/ Github - https://github.com/treasuryguild/Catalyst-Swarm

We also use certain Proposal Funds to support important community initiatives which work and engage in DAO Tooling and Infrastructure 500 Usd in Ada support fund for Gimbalabs - Dandelion Link ( Open Cardano API service ) https://dandelion.link/ 500 Usd in Ada support fund for QA DAO ( Community & Governance documentation and Education ) https://quality-assurance-dao.github.io/

The most important experience has been build by figuring out how we are able to recognize, document and track community participation and engagement on-chain. Our collaboration with Gimbalabs and the use of Gimbal token allows us to explore effective processes with which we are able to trace engagements and store the on the Cardano Blockchain. The generated data by linking Cardano Native Assets to public bounties and team tasks will allow us to further develop reputation/meritocratic systems, tools and platforms.

So, overall, we indeed have some unexpected challenges but the proposal execution plays out quite well and we thank everyone who voted for us :)

More things to come indeed

Supporting new emerging Swarm projects and partners with financial support to explore their Bounty use cases:

SingularityNet - 1000 Usd in Ada per month NFT Guild - 750 Usd in Ada per month South Asian Town Hall - 500 Usd in Ada per month

Catalyst Swarm Bounties as Community Onboarding Dework is a heavily Ethereum based platform and people aiming to participate in the Swarm bounties to earn Ada, AGIX and Gimbal Tokens might be new to the Cardano ecosystem. On-boarding community comes into play here, as they are required to create a Cardano wallet to receive the funds/tokens, now making them Cardano users and holders.

Example: https://app.dework.xyz/catalyst-swarm/catalyst-swarm-bount?taskId=359a6aa0-1128-478e-8cc4-10d85c714c76

Bounties & Token - Ada, AGIX, Gimbal Why do we add different tokens? To increase awareness and traction to projects. When a newly on-boarded community member receives the funds/tokens in their wallets, the likelihood of wanting to learn more about what the token is heightens, encouraging them to access (let’s say their) pool.pm and click on their newly received token. In doing so, they are met with accessible information and resources needed to get a better understanding of the project tied to the token.
