Hi everyone,I hope this finds you well! We're continuing our active beta and making great strides in resolving the remaining issues and ideating around new features to meet community needs. This week I wanted to take a moment to personally thank you and celebrate what we've accomplished together. The numbers speak for themselves: Our Beta Testers pod is active, members are sharing feedback and insights in both the chat and forumsSeveral meaningful forum discussions around bugs formed last weekOur mobile-first approach is resonating, you're proving that DAO participation doesn't need to be desk-bound Beyond the metrics, what really excites me is seeing the quality of feedback from our testing community. From the strategic discussions to the creative bounty proposals that remain yours for the taking, you're not just using SpiritDAO - you're defining what the future of onchain community collaboration looks like. Special shout outs to some incredible contributors: Eric Miki for his dedication, spending a solid hour doing live testing and walking through the experience on his end, and suggesting UX improvements.Camara Cassin for your active and insightful feedback into the issues you were experiencing (which have since been fixed!)Jon Simmons for actively promoting and sharing our beta on social media, elevating awareness of our ecosystem within the web3 community as well as sharing a bug he discovered.What's next? We're continuing our beta and are looking for a few more testers to connect for 1:1 beta sessions. The objective is to confirm that our core functionality is working exactly as intended. Afterwards we will transition into a live version and begin the formal construction of our community, opening the doors to others as well. Here's how you can help us keep this momentum: 1. Keep engaging - Your voice in Pods and forum discussions is what makes our community valuable 2. Invite thoughtfully - Know someone who would add value to our community? Send them our way. You can find your own personal invite code within your Identity page. 3. Share your story - If SpiritDAO has been useful for your DAO or community work, we'd love to amplify your success We're building something special here - a place where DAO governance actually works, where mobile-first design meets serious onchain functionality, and where community members like you shape the product as much as the founding team does. Thank you for being part of this journey from the beginning. The best is yet to come. Other: This week we've been revamping our website, both for a cost savings effort for our nonprofit as well as to highlight our community infrastructure and recently expanded services. Stay tuned! With love, gratitude, and immense appreciation, Ron Rivers P.S. Have ideas for new features or improvements?
