What is the purpose of our community?

1. Our Mission, Vision, and Values
2. To highlight the stories of builders and changemakers in web3. We do this by featuring guests and the projects they have contributed to on our podcasts and even invite community members to take lead in organizing these discussions. This requires a steady flow of capital to support the production of these shows and the governance of the community at large. Our community must therefore be self-sustaining in the ability to generate income and distribute funding to community initiatives.
