Progress update on Seeds for Friends. Two of the 3 plants are growing fast — and I just successfully updated the image metadata on @zora. Here's the collection as it stands now: https://zora.co/collect/base:0x2d902edff1524d987c7494eb0f4ccaa9f35d99b3

The immediate goal is to get neighbors to contribute in making the shared space feel like their own. Then to do more placemaking in the neighborhood with more people. I want to unite in this various local orgs and make it sustainable. Have ideas of reputation building, decentralized prizes, and more. Stay tuned!

I’m finally ready to present the URL component of my IRL neighborhood improvement project, for which I received a VRBS grant. I wanted it to connect to the wider VRBS community right away and to generate revenue for VRBS right away, however small. Ergo, Seeds for Neighbors: Each herb/veggie planted by neighbors is now an dNFT you can mint to support the neighborhood. The image will be updated as the plant grows (it’s YOUR baby now). And the funds are split: 1) VRBS - 20%; and of the remainder 2) Cabin DAO - 30% 3) Local neighborhood treasury multisig - 30% 4) The person who planted the seeds - 40% (Web3 onboarding opportunity) 3 dNFTs/planters to choose from. As this grows, I will add more signers to the multisig and more planters. Please give them love!

This weekend, we’re gonna improve my balcony, which I made into a community shared space. On that basis, we will create a local WhatsApp group and IG to inspire more neighbors to join in. Leftover paint and tools will be donated to our neighborhood’s tool library.

So… the dNFT plant project is moving along. But so slowly. I’m crash coursing through every platform I can find but I’m not technical. If anyone has NFT creation mastery, please help! )) So far, got the farthest with CrossMint. Attached. But still nowhere near releasable. But here are a few preview screens.

gm gm I got my VRBS grant to create a neighborhood marketplace of neighbors both suggesting placemaking improvements and making them. Talking with local and global frens, I realized that paying people would kill all intrinsic motivation so pivoted to spend the money on supplies (pictured).
