My Top 3 Social Mining Moments with DAOVERSE

DAOVERSE turns 3 today, March 21, 2025, and as an OG Social Miner, I’ve been hooked since the early days of DAO Labs. Reflecting on three years in the Daoversian Galaxy, here are my standout moments each paired with visual proof of how far we’ve come. These experiences showcase Social Mining’s power to reward effort and build community.

The Dawn of ILO - 2022

I jumped into the first Initial Labor Offering (ILO) in mid-2022, earning $LABOR tokens by creating memes for Avalanche Hub. Back then, DAOVERSE was raw clunky interfaces, manual task submissions but the vibe was electric. My meme (a miner hauling $LABOR in a pixelated cart) nabbed me 500 points and a token drop. It wasn’t just the rewards; it was the realization that my hustle mattered more than my wallet.

Social Miner of the Year Glory 2023

March 2023’s anniversary event was peak DAOVERSEpolo. I submitted a video breaking down Social Mining’s merit based magic think shaky webcam vibes and passion-fueled rants. The community hyped it with 300+ likes, landing me runner-up in “Social Miner of the Year.” That win cemented my love for this crew.
