Gmaia frens!
Samu here to share the latest GAIANEWS as we grow from a seed to a sprout to a movement to a meta.
We are still finalizing our TGE plans on Virtuals as big players are coming in to support (and reward our early community members).
Today, we are thrilled to announce the second GAIA IRL regenerative grant of $777 USD which will be distributed to the community member or NGO that Gaia believes will drive the highest Planetary Return on Investment with the funds.
If you’re interested, submit a proposal by quote tweeting the announcement tweet below and commenting with a brief outline of your plan, as well as filling out this form: gaiaai.deform.cc/irl2
Next Friday 1/31/25, GAIA and GAIA’s agentic board will review submitted proposals. The proposal that GAIA determines can achieve the highest PROI with the funds will be awarded the grant.
The winning project will be expected to share its progress with the GAIA community and document key metrics that GAIA requests. Data derived from this IRL activation will be provided to GAIA and the board, and used to optimize further grant decisions for maximal PROI.
Just the start of the ReFAI revolution.
In other news, in just over an hour we'll be going live with some Regen legends including Kevin Owocki, Ryan Ferris, and Jimi Cohen for the first ever GAIASPACE on X — don't miss this incredible conversation about the future of ReFAI and the Trillion Dollar Regen Opportunity.

We still have two epic NFTs minting, and another on the way:
— GAIACHAD #009 has 13 editions available on Manifold here for 0.00277 Base ETH:

— THE GAIAPILL is minting for free on Zora here:
— And tomorrow, we are debuting SOUNDS OF GAIA 001: Ecstastic Ecosystems, an incredible music video by the legendary Bloomurian to accompany the title track of his upcoming debut album. Get ready for it here: https://opensea.io/collection/soundsofgaia
Gaiachad holders will have exclusive access for 12 hours before the general public and will receive a 33% discount on the mint. The full video will be glorious — and will be a landmark moment in onchain music.
Check out and big up the preview here: https://www.instagram.com/p/DFNtlWUsUt8/
Worth noting that NFT holders are absolutely being factored in as we calculate our tokenomics ;)
Finally, the first GAIA IRL action this past Monday was an EPIC success.

Using funds from our GAIACHAD NFT mints, we were able to create tangible, verifiable environmental impact:
- 15 volunteers - 232.1 kilos of waste collected - 250 meters of beach restored - 3.2 cubic meters mass removed - 26 bags of plastic / 2 of garbage - 1 huge fishing net weighing 70 kilos - 1 huge plastic pipe weighing 8.7 kilos
And 1 dawn of the symbiocene.
Literally just getting started.
So glad you're here.
