🚀 Had an incredible time at the WebFusion Hackathon in Lagos last week! Honored to be invited as a mentor, guiding talented developers through the intricacies of #NEAR BOS. @nearafrica_ @NEARDevHub #WebFusionLagos

Not only are we committing to maintaining POTLOCK, we are building a net-new product and doubling down on chain-abstracted, private payments by enabling any asset to be used for private, local payments with @replydotcash. The future is open money, funding, and payments.

With the recent Rhea exploit, public goods projects shutting down, and overall crypto FUD, we want to be clear: we have no plans to shut down in 2026, and actually the opposite. 🧵

Now funding on @potlock_ → with @Zcash (ZEC). Raise or donate to any idea, now with seamless execution. Powered by NEAR Intents.

We are proud to announce that we have integrated Bitcoin (BTC) donations via @near_intents. This means you can donate with BTC directly to your favourite causes on POTLOCK or raise funds for your own ideas with Bitcoin. Full announcement: linkedin.com/feed/update/ur… Thread 🧵👇

Some System Design Concepts You Should Know 🧵 1. Load Balancer think of your infra as a bank with customers (users) and cashiers (servers). then having customers form lines towards each cashier and a security directing incoming customers to the shortest line. that security is the load balancer.

Happy Breakpoint! We are proud to announce that we have integrated @solana donations via @near_intents. This means you can donate with Solana & other SOL assets (@USDC, $USDT) directly to your favorite causes on 🫕 POTLOCK or raise for your own ideas w/ SOL assets. To celebrate this, we have launched a $250 USD campaign (with more incentives via our POTLOCK campaign) to incentivize the top 📣 8 yappers and content creators around content promoting Solana 🤝 NEAR Intents.

gm 🦃 Happy Thanksgiving to all the NEARians celebrating!

How would you design a URL shortening service that scales?

💧@intea_rs is now live on 🫕POTLOCK. Proud to bring the most native NEAR Wallet with NEAR's most native funding stack 🤝

Developers, want to deploy your site to @walrusprotocol? I’ve got a @potlock_ template for you to deploy easily 👇😎👇 You’ll need some $SUI, a lil $WAL, and some $NS if ur crazy 😜 Ugh, but if only these tokens were easier to buy! 😩 liquidity, WHERE art thou?! 🙏

Dude, I LOVE NEARWEEK’s style. Every. Single. Time. They never miss.

Grants should feel more fun, which is why we are proud to announce we have been supported by the Stellar Community Fund for GrantPicks, to gamify the way the Stellar ecosystem does funding through head-to-head contests 🏆 Whenever funds are allocated or escrowed, we at POTLOCK adhere to the utmost security practices. We are pleased to announce that we have successfully completed a 🛡️ security audit with @VeridiseInc. This audit covered our GrantPicks protocol on Stellar's Soroban Smart Contract platform, which acts as a fundraising vault-based platform designed to support projects through community-driven pairwise voting. Veridise is the industry-leading security audit company specializing in Formal Methods. 📜 Full audit report github.com/PotLock/grantp… As the open funding stack, we worked with many different auditors, Veridise's auditors provided a phenomenal experience with attention to detail, round-the-clock responsiveness, and their own house tooling to easily track changes so we could address each issue in detail. One of the few firms skilled in Soroban, we highly recommend them. We're now live testing 🏆 GrantPicks with these new changes! Reach out if you're interested in getting involved in our alpha, launching your own contests, building on top of these MIT open source funding vaults, or leveraging our own chain project registries. This is just one of many integrations into the Stellar ecosystem, and we are looking for a bright future for Chain Abstracted funding. (More alpha soon...NEAR x Stellar 🤫🤝)

The User-Owned Future is here. Build it with NEAR.

you can just raise funds with 🫕 @potlock_. marketing campaigns, user incentives, dev bounties, event downpayments, travel stipends, contributor payments. so many use cases with POTLOCK campaigns to get your ideas started, no paperwork, no permission needed. Incentivize your communities to raise for you via referrals. Don't hit your goal to make it happen...well its ok there are refunds too. and if you dont like our implementation, front end, etc MIT Open Source everything, you can fork it. Open Funding FTW. @NEARFoundation thank us later

📣 New Marketing Incentive Campaign: We just donated to @monzaNFT's @nearintents gifting pool to accelerate the new FIrehouse twitter space. Why? - Build more community spaces - Not enough users + builders know power of intent gifts - Monza dont disappoint 💯
