This is my task submission as social miner at the Daolabs below!

What if Web3 funding truly worked for builders?

Not just for the well-connected.

Not just for hype-driven experiments.

But for real creators building real solutions.

Over the past year, through my journey with #SocialMining at @TheDAOLabs, I’ve had the chance to immerse myself in different Web3 communities — observing how ecosystems grow, fund, and empower their builders.

And one network that consistently stands out is @WAX_io.

At first glance, it was the activity that drew me in. WAX quietly moves more daily transactions than most top-tier blockchains, fueled by gaming, NFTs, and digital collectibles. But what truly impressed me was #WAXLabs — their community-powered funding platform.

So, what makes WAX Labs different?

WAX Labs is a decentralized, DAO-governed funding program that invites builders to submit proposals for projects — whether games, tools, marketplaces, or infrastructure upgrades — and receive funding directly from the WAX treasury.

The process is refreshingly open:

Anyone can submit a proposal

Token holders review, vote, and approve

Funds are distributed transparently

Progress is publicly documented through clear milestones

This year, WAX Labs took a major step forward by expanding to fund for-profit ventures — a move that opens doors for creators to build sustainable, revenue-generating businesses alongside community tools.

If you’ve been waiting for the right platform to pitch your idea, this might be it.

WAX is building quietly, but purposefully — and I’ll be watching closely.
