It’s hard to believe we launched our crowdfund less than two weeks ago. Things are clearly moving super fast, and we don’t expect you to be online 24/7 to keep up with all the moving pieces (weekly reminder to get away from your screen and go outside). In the spirit of total transparency and over-communication, we’ll be publishing a weekly update every Friday at rehash.mirror.xyz to keep you up to speed on everything that’s happening at Rehash. tree girl 🌲 @ddwchen 1/ We launched our @rehashweb3 podcast and crowdfund at the beginning of the week, and a LOT has happened, so I thought I'd share a weekly update here 23 10:03 AM • Apr 23, 2022 Crowdfund closesWe launched our Mirror crowdfund on Tuesday, April 19 and closed it one week later on Tuesday, April 26 (technically April 27 because we had some technical difficulties). Rehash: A Web3 Podcast 🎙️ @rehashweb3 We're having some technical difficulties trying to close our crowdfund, so it's still open at the moment but we will be closing it as soon as we figure out how Silver lining is we got 15 new backers overnight and are almost up to 30 ETH raised, which is 3x our original goal Rehash: A Web3 Podcast 🎙️ @rehashweb3 Less than 3 hours left to join our crowdfund and secure your spot in the DAO!

Rehash: A Web3 Podcast 🎙️ @rehashweb3 Thank you to all 36 of our early backers who helped us push past our original goal just over an hour into launch, your support means the world to us We're planning on keeping the crowdfund open for the rest of the week, so there's still time to join! rehash.mirror.xyz/crowdfunds/0xa… 17 11:20 AM • Apr 19, 2022 Out of the 29.53 ETH raised, we netted a total of 28.88 ETH after Mirror fees were taken out (Etherscan).

We can and should do a better job of this for future seasons.We discussed the nuances of many contentions but could have dug even deeper into certain arguments. Our goal isn’t to be adversarial to our guests, but rather to think critically alongside our guests and try to understand as fully as possible why they hold the beliefs they do.I believe we stayed true to our third value and plan on continuing to do so in future seasons.Season 1 of the podcast is now complete, and we hope you’ll enjoy listening to these episodes over the next month or so before we launch Season 2. Starting in Season 2, our 121 DAO members will be able to curate the guest list, topics, segments, and overall structure of the podcast. I can’t wait to see what everyone comes up with :)Rehash on Apple, Spotify, Google, etcAnother big update this week is that our podcast is now on all the major podcasting platforms!
