This week’s [_Build in Public Show_](https://x.com/i/broadcasts/1PlJQMLaqQDJE) was a ride... We kicked things off with the official launch of the $**CREATE Catalyst Grant Program**, a collaboration between The Creators and Incented to reward bold creative leadership with 77 million $CREATE tokens. Sven and Triggs joined us live to talk about human-first funding, slashing uninformed votes, and what happens when aligned incentives meet real impact.

Then we jumped straight into Unity, showcasing the next phase of the **Creators Grand Prix**, our vapor wave racing game set in a neon-drenched New York City. We dropped in 69 collectible $BASE coins (yes, 69), broke down global volume effects like bloom and chromatic aberration, and talked world building strategy for the upcoming launch at NFT NYC.

**$CREATE Catalyst Grant Program: Onchain Funding with Purpose**  
Sven and Triggs from Incented gave us a deep dive into their human-first protocol designed to reward aligned action, not empty hype. With **hidden voting**, **carrot and stick mechanics**, and **transparent fund safes**, Incented is changing how onchain grants are allocated.

The _CREATE Catalyst Grant Program_ is the first of its kind, launching with **77 million $CREATE tokens** and live now on [incented.co](http://incented.co). This is about storytelling, mission-driven builds, and giving creators a chance to rise. Submit your project, stake your claim, and let your voice be heard.

> “This is 0.1% of the total CREATE supply allocated to the people from day one.” - Sven

*   Text Mesh UI build in Unity
    
*   Sponsor billboard placement
    
*   Hidden collectibles and “secret zone” ideas

**Community Highlight: Farcaster Gift Party**  
A special shout-out to Zemm from Coordinape for throwing a surprise Farcaster gift party for host Lynn Mosqueda. It was chaotic, sweet, and the perfect reminder of why we build in public with each other.
