Formosa Art Bank DAO (FAB DAO)

FAB DAO, also known as Formosa Art Bank DAO, is a self-governing organization for charity NFTs since 2021. The largest charity NFT fundraising project in Taiwan, the "Project Percentage, %", brought together cross-disciplinary organizations and individuals to create a new system and style in Taiwan NFT market that combines the theme of charity, art and culture.

FAB DAO focuses on minting and selling non-profit NFTs, creating artist and collector communities, building blockchain experiences and designing blockchain education for the public. With goodness and eternity as our starting point, we are building a connected Web3 metaverse. We will apply the good features of blockchain to take the real actions in the real world.

Background

As FAB DAO became formally DAO in April 2023, the core team handed over the management of FAB DAO to the communities. Different initiatives and ideas were raised and discussed within FAB DAO.

At the same time, Public Goods ecosystems grew under the support of Gitcoin and other organizations. As one of the pioneers in Public Goods, GreenPill would like to share its experience and develop local chapters for different cities over the world.

When two communities connected with each other, the idea of Taiwan Chapter was born.

Mission & Vision, Value alignment

Green Sofa aligns with the mission and vision of GreenPill, which is to build a global network society transcending national and cultural boundaries, while exporting regenerative digital infrastructure to the world.

As one team under FAB DAO, Green Sofa aims to explore the possiblity of collaboration wtih GreenPill international and FAB DAO. It is a school for FAB DAO learning from GreenPill about Public Goods, e.g. QF/QV, Gitcoin Grants Stack. It is also a laboratory for FAB DAO to apply the knowledge, kick off hands-on projects in smaller scale, to gain local experiences and feedback to FAB DAO and GreenPill.

Critical success factors

1. Increase awareness of the GreenPill and look for collaboration opportunity with FAB DAO
2. Learn and apply GreenPill related tools and knowledge to support FAB DAO development, e.g. QF/QV, Gitcoin Grants Stack, Hypercert.
3. Act as the communication channel between FAB DAO and GreenPill International and other local chapters.
