Crowdsizes
As stated in previous updates, we’ve been hosting more bonus shows at other timeslots in the week to make them more accessible to more audiences who might not be able to attend our normal Tuesday/Thursdays.

Incentives
Unrelated to the grant, we’ve also relaunched our own collection of Music NFTs as a reward for attending our events, to entice new users to join us and reward returners! This was a perk that we’ve had for 2 years and restarting with a new contract after Opensea shut down their legacy NFT creation tools. We’re excited to bring back rewards for attending our events in Decentraland as it was a great way to encourage new users to download a fresh wallet, join a metaverse party, and leave with a music NFT. The new collection is viewable on https://app.innkeeper.link

Next steps

We’re approaching the end of our paid shows! While the vesting contract will continue, our grant payments cover Oct-Mar activities.

Our next step is preparing for our grand finale! We’re hosting our mega cross-reality party this April 6th! We’ve already secured the venue in Amsterdam and will be procuring a large projector to put Decentraland on the big screen in front of the dance floor!

For the remaining of the vesting, we’ll pay for the remainder of March events and then begin repaying our administrative costs since October (we focused on funding the artists first). We’re also preparing a balance so that we can prepare for the payments needed for the grand finale. Full accounting of this will be on these updates and also via The Inn: Grant Tracking to watch in real-time.

View this update on the Governance dApp

Today, we have our Monthly Meeting with Dean from Innkeeper, and the project is on track. They showed progress, and we checked their GovApp Update and their Public Roadmap. All the metrics have been delivered, and they are preparing to conclude the series of events funded by the DAO from October to March, with a big event on April 6th. They initiated artist payments in October, but the first payment from DCL was received in December. Consequently, after March, they will continue hosting some events, albeit without sponsorship from the DAO. The funds will be allocated to cover the initial payment month and other expenses. Alongside the return of funds, they will also refund $280 USD DAI on ETH for the computer return. This comprises a €54 Memory Stick expense for a used Intel Nuc Hades Canyon, which we can repurpose for the streaming rig; it merely requires a new memory stick for functionality. Additionally, there is a €160 External Monitor expense for a mobile monitor that we can set up at any location, and a €50 Keyboard/Mouse expense. The total cost amounts to €264, which converts to $279.84 USD. We will also integrate them with DCL metrics to comprehend the different figures they are receiving. Furthermore, we suggest creating a proposal akin to DCL to offer their backstage platform to the DAO community in the future
