NNT Catch Up
AxLabs joined the Neo Live AMA series to talk about GrantShares, Neo’s fundraising DAO. In the AMA, Muller and Machado discussed the genesis of the GrantShares project, the types of applicants the team would like to see, the application process, transparency in the discussions surrounding proposals, and the future vision for GrantShares. Participants in the AMA shared rewards from a prize pool comprising 10 Neoverse blindbox NFTs.
Three GrantShares proposals are currently active: the hub for NEP-17 tokens, Web3 community – Italy, and creating a free course to serve both as a teaching and marketing tool.

June 21, the Flamingo team announced that it had absorbed the Lyrebird Finance team as part of an IP and talent acquisition. Moving forward, Lyrebird’s reverse USDL stablecoin pool will no longer allow users to swap in (only out). While LRB will continue to be tradable, an LRB Fund has been structured similar to Flamingo’s FLUND. Flamingo will also develop an FUSD stablecoin modeled after MakerDAO’s DAI over-collateralization method.
