Gnars Operations: Content, Bounties & Growth

TL:DR Build and maintain a modern content and communication ecosystem for Gnars, transforming years of DAO-generated content into engaging media, viral videos, and new creative formats. Support this ecosystem through a collaborative network of creators, developers, and community contributors, backed by a tiered bounty program that incentivizes ongoing participation, innovation, and growth.

Team Updates

Following the completion of our previous proposal, we've continued executing a consistent content and communications strategy to keep the Gnars ecosystem active and visible. Recent initiatives have included the launch and promotion of Gnars Stake, NogglesRail Page , Gnars Bounties, the $GNARS Token Migration, the Gnars Library CC0 [cooking],the development of the Gnarly Commitment Guidelines for future proposals and more.

Alongside these efforts, we've maintained weekly Shredder features on Instagram, X, Farcaster and produced special editions of Gnarly News, highlighting major community initiatives and events. This work would not have been possible without the ongoing development, infrastructure, and support provided by the Gnars Dev Team.

In parallel, we developed the first version of the Gnars Playbook, a practical brand and product guideline designed to help builders create more consistent, recognizable, and high-quality Gnars projects while staying aligned with the identity and culture the DAO has built over the years.

We also provided ongoing internal creative support by producing campaign assets, product mockups, and visual materials for Shredders, community initiatives, and DAO proposals, helping improve presentation quality and maintain a consistent Gnars identity across the ecosystem. (New Assets)

Gnars Portal: Content Scheduling Workflow

Review how content planning, production, scheduling, and communication are currently organized across the ecosystem. Posts are scheduled after content creation, graphic asset production, or the curation of DAO-generated content, ensuring every publication follows a structured editorial workflow before distribution across Gnars communication channels.

🏆 GNARS BOUNTY DISTRIBUTION

The Gnars Bounties program builds upon the foundation of Gnars Sesh, evolving it into a more structured incentive system designed to foster community participation. With an initial $500 reward pool, the program supports builders, creators, athletes, and artists while encouraging a continuous flow of content across skateboarding, surfing, art, media, and community initiatives, managed and coordinated directly by Gnars.

Beyond rewarding individual contributions, the bounties establish a sustainable content pipeline that enables a consistent schedule of posts, videos, and community activations. During a bear market, this structure helps keep the DAO active, visible, and continuously building, strengthening the ecosystem through ongoing community participation and creative collaboration.

The goal is to use these bounties as lightweight onboarding grants into the Gnars ecosystem, encouraging participants to become long-term contributors rather than one-time winners. Through recurring posts, community spotlights, and winner showcases, we can keep builders engaged while growing the DAO organically. We're also exploring a custom bounty wheel that randomly selects challenges for each tier, adding a fun and dynamic layer to the experience. Since governance ultimately shapes the program, this prototype is shared early so everyone has time to review the concepts, prepare ideas, and participate if interested.

Content Distribution Strategy

The 41 bounties will be scheduled and distributed across our social channels through a structured content calendar, creating a continuous stream of community challenges throughout the campaign. Using the Gnars Portal, posts will be automated and synchronized across platforms, ensuring consistent visibility while inviting new builders to participate in the DAO. As submissions are completed, winning entries and community creations will be showcased through follow-up posts, generating an ongoing cycle of participation, recognition, and organic content that continuously expands the Gnars ecosystem.

• Skateboarding has always had bounties, the difference is that they were informal.
• A bounty is a challenge with a predefined reward. Complete the objective, submit proof, and claim the prize. Unlike a contest, you're not competing against everyone else.
• Each bounty has its own objective, difficulty, and reward.

The 41 bounties above are illustrative, showcasing different categories, values, and work niches to engage different builders. They are not necessarily the bounties that will follow. The idea is to shape them around relevant events and the DAO’s broader needs.

Next Plan:

1. Continue fostering the DAO through social media, creating blogs and documentation around the main Gnarly updates, events, creations, and milestones to keep the culture alive and visible.
2. Curate and develop viral AI videos featuring a variety of shredders both to intersperse with campaigns from partners like Morpheus and Clanker, and to promote Gnars in a fun, viral way.
3. Maintain close collaboration with the dev team by supporting testing, feedback loops, and building initiatives that strengthen the community infrastructure.
4. Operate and coordinate Gnars Bounties, creating a content calendar connected to these initiatives to amplify participation, highlight contributions, and keep the DAO continuously active and engaged.
5. The goal is to keep building, keep gnarly af, experimenting, documenting, and spreading the Gnarly culture.

Final Thoughts:

This proposal aims to provide continuous operational support for the Gnars ecosystem by strengthening the communication layer between builders, developers, partners, and the broader community.

The goal is to establish a sustainable communication and support framework that helps Gnars continue growing, attracting contributors, creating opportunities, and keeping the Gnarly culture active and recognizable.
