DAO Vader ✺

Welcome to the DAO side.

We're excited to be working with @optimismFND to introduce co-granting: a new Syndicate experience that enables anyone to co-grant funds to alongside the Optimism Foundation and build a reputation on-chain ✨ Read more in Optimism's announcement below: gov.optimism.io/t/introducing-…

Our custom Discord invite link ending in “SyndicateDAO” recently expired. Upon expiry, the invite link was automatically activated by another server with a fake CAPTCHA bot. There is no risk to Syndicate’s Discord, but if you recently used the invite link, you should disconnect from the server and change your Discord password.

We're excited to join @HydraVentures_ and its other members to accelerate the development of the investment DAO ecosystem together 🙌

We hope everyone has been weathering the recent events related to SVB—and that the days ahead will bring more stability to the markets and industry 🙏 Syndicate was not at risk, and our financial position remains secure. Thank you to everyone who has checked in ❤️

1/ OpenSea recently announced that collections are no longer grandfathered in for royalties, even if those collections were made before royalty filters existed. But if your collection is built on Syndicate’s ERC-721M, you can easily add a royalty filter.
