The aim is to serve as testbed for a decentralized ecosystem accelerator community.

Areas of activity and interest

The KoalaDAO #Blockathon will be suppoerting initiatives in the following domains:

Social

  • Alchemy interface in Chinese
  • Prepare for a Chinese community DAO similar to Genesis / KoalaDAO the PanDAO 🐼⏩🌈

UX and Mobile

UX is a big area of interest with the bitfwd ecosystem. Particularly given our strong affiliation with Asia where mobile native is the norm. The areas which are of interest to us:

  • Onboarding flow
  • Wallet integration
  • Bounty / Proposal representation
  • Smart token interfaces (offer GEN staking functions straight in a mobile wallet)
  • DAO Browser

Digital/DAO Culture Configuration

Research and development of DAO sustainability through implementation of social campaigns and learn from experiments what trends are nurturing the DAO and what trends are exhausting DAOs (resoure, user engagement, growth etc).

Social Impact and Education

We work with students societies, universities, and social impact organizations on educational activities across developments and general literacy. Educating through the use of DAO ecosystem products is something we are very interested in.

Governance structure

Our MVG (Minimum Viable Governance) is found here and will potentially be reviewed.
