Why We’re Here: FWB Census
FWB originated as an internet-native group of friends with a shared interest in crypto and culture. Just a few years later, it has blossomed into a global community of over 4,000 members. With such a diverse group of participants and so many initiatives across our DAO, it’s no wonder that FWB means many different things to many different people. Before this next chapter unfolds, there’s an opportunity to hear from all voices in the room about what FWB means to each of us, where we want it to ...

Decentralizing Brand Partnerships
A blueprint for DAOs, brands, and their communities.Today we’re launching Café 11, FWB’s most ambitious partnership to date. We’ve teamed up with Hennessy, the renowned 250-year-old spirits brand, to reimagine the free-thinking cafe society of 1920’s Paris with a series of blockchain-enabled events at the most relevant cultural fairs around the world. But what does a DAO stand to gain by partnering with a legacy cognac brand, and vice versa? Quite a lot, as it turns out. As we bring this new ...

FWB Season Five: Social Spaces
Friends with Benefits is excited to enter our second year. What started as a social experiment exploring shared incentives and cultural production saw us push the boundaries of what it means to be a community-owned enterprise. We spent a lot of time together online, gathered around the world offline, created remarkable art together, built tools for ourselves, and formed real friendships — all within the confines of a Discord server. As FWB grew, so did the needs of our community. Sub-communit...

Friends with Benefits is becoming the ultimate cultural membership in Web3.
Over the last three months, FWB has begun to mobilized its community into focused teams to build products and experiences for the community.
You can read more about how the community is organizing itself here.
Central to the success of this coordination is information organization, single sources of truth that the community can turn to and rally behind.
Now introducing FWB Pulse™ - the real-time FWB dashboard to locate resources, track community-wide projects, and visualize metrics.

With FWB Pulse, you can stay up on:
Community communications
The #announcements channel
Latest edition of TL;DR newsletter
Snapshot votes
IRL + URL event calendar
Project timelines
Ways to get involved
Message counts, membership count, and token price.
All in real time, and optimized for the speed of Web3.
FWB is lucky to have such an engaged community, but with Discord’s synchronous nature, important information often slips through the cracks.
We want Pulse to serve as the go-to resource for members and non-members alike - giving you one place to stay up with everything FWB in a few minutes or less.
This is just the start, and we hope the community continues to request and add more resources as we grow.
If you’re an FWB member and would like to help expand Pulse™, please apply to the product team via #get-involved and let us know.
