How did we spend our 2022 funds?

Blu3 DAO focuses on in-person activations. The main program our DAO focused on in 2022 was Blu3 Hacks. Blu3 Hacks is our educational initiative where we sponsor talented builders to compete in a web3 hackathon or to attend a blockchain conference. We sponsored our hackers with travel stipends between $500-$2,000 USD each and fully paid accommodations in hotels, hostels, or housing rentals. We also organized in-person events like Blu3 Day and Women in Web3 brunches. Blu3 Hacks is a nonprofit activity, all the funds we raise for these events are spent on travel, accommodation, and event expenses.

Blu3 Hacks 2022 Summary

In 2022, our Blu3 Hacks program sponsored over 160 scholars and hackers at 7 major web3 events, which included participating in 6 hackathons. The 160 figure does not include the 50 sponsored at ETHDenver, as those funds were handled through a third-party, and not by us.

How will we spend our funds in 2023?

Blu3 DAO will continue to focus on in-person activations, albeit at a smaller scale. Blu3 Hacks will sponsor builders at a maximum of 4 blockchain conferences/hackathons over the year, one every quarter. In addition, we will focus on launching Blu3 Bootcamp, where we will pay qualified instructors to deliver live lessons. In addition, we'll focus on local community events like monthly meetups in major hubs like NYC and LA and building out our regional DAOs in Latam and Africa.
