Crowdfund an affordable property purchase through collaborative efforts under the Planetary Council. Seeking votes, donors, and collaborators; additional incentives include NFT passports.

A property purchased by a friend, possibly back to DAO, would need to crowdfund it.

Previously I was the driving force behind the Island DAO. But it is not so easy to coordinate anons on the internet. Because of my work, people from all over the place were contacting me whenever a cool island became available for sale.

This time around changed the tactic a bit - contacted a wealthy friend who had capacity to pull the trigger.

Final price is public knowledge: https://auctions.savills.co.uk/auctions/20-september-2023-132/grain-tower-no-1-the-thames-isle-of-grain-kent-me3--7609

£159k

Sounds pretty doable, pretty affordable.

Voting on this project signals support to this initiative, we can definitely pull it off.

Collaborative effort

All projects in this round are under the umbrella of the Planetary Council. Too many of them 🙈 Need to focus, need to prioritise, that’s why dedicated round acting as community vote. We also welcome (more than welcome) potential supporters and collaborators

Starting a project (hackathon or otherwise) is just a first step on the journey. Some people are better with starting multiple projects (connectedness, finding gaps in the market) some people are better as BUSINESS OPERATORS who enjoy single minded focus. If you are one of these people: please join the effort 🙏
