The Bootcamp reached an impressive audience of 42,000+ and generated a staggering 105,000+ social media engagements in just the first 2 sessions. Participants were so inspired that they shared more than 200 social media posts and blog articles about their experiences.
Push DAO Updates:
To continue our journey of Push DAO towards progressive decentralization we introduced a new DAO framework, Push DAO V2. This framework simplifies the process for contributors and builders to engage with the DAO, with the support of the DAO Council. Further, we introduced Push Improvement Proposal 1 to advocate integrating the Open Frame standard and Frames into the Push Protocol Network and PIP 2 to enable reactions via emojis on chat messages.
We supported DAO Spring celebrating and encouraging the exceptional talent and innovation of builders in our community. Our DAO Lead joined DAO Talk by DeXe Protocol to speak on Repeatable business models for DAOs.
