Townhall
We got a great overview of the Web3 API by Jordan of d0rg. Bullish on decentralized Infura. 😶
The latest proposal to go through is the Web3 Bridge, a program to recruit & train Web2 developers in Nigeria, Africa to work in the ecosystem. Rock on Awosika!
We touch on the ongoing proposals, such as the Vocdoni Bridge & the Paladins budget for operating the cartel.
We spend the rest of the time discussing different candidates for the upcoming grant rounds towards the hackathon projects coming out of ETH Global.
Mindful, Croco Finance, Space-dX, Llama, Overlay, Split & others; will they all receive grants from the Cartel? 😱
Probably not, but many will.
Will MetaCartel have its ETH2 node? Bet it will.
For the last time 💓,

P.S. I have succeeded this newsletter from Peter Pan having first joined the Cartel almost a year and two months to date. Not wanting to see it die, I pivoted his Game of Dapps newsletter into MetaCartel’s Shots Fired - which you’ve hopefully come to love & enjoy during the past 42 issues I have written. Its been a ride!
I think its time for me to pass the torch to some of the next Carteleans who want to prove their worth or earn a little side income. 💗💗💗
P.P.S. If you’re really a fan of my writing, you can still follow it through MetaGame’s newsletter or the wiki itself, which has been written almost 100% by me. 🙃
Eternally grateful to Peter Pan for setting me on this crazy path of joining some of the loveliest & brilliant bunch of people known as the MetaCartel, then being the first one to believe in me and support me in starting this even weirder experiment called MetaGame. You’re awesome bro, keep it up. 😍
Also a huge thank you to all the other awesome people at the Cartel for being the light at the end of the tunnel during the darkest hours of this year. 🥰
What an absolutely insane year. 😵
Here’s to many more, fam! 🥂
