:bar_chart: Celo Communities Guild Report - September 2024

Gm Celorians! :sun_with_face:

The Celo Communities Guild is excited to present the monthly report on community activity across Discord, Telegram, and Reddit for the month of September.

September marked the third month of our efforts under the CeloPG H2 scope, and was intense in terms of activity and new programs. We finally launched our point system to reward the most active community member on Discord each month using Guild.xyz.

:memo: General

  • Hosted our Monthly Moderators Call: We had our monthly moderator call on September 5th and September 25th with every call lasting more than 1 hour due to a lot of items on the agenda to discuss.

  • Launched the Celo Communities Guild on Guild.xyz: We introduced the Celo Communities Guild on Guild.xyz, a new reward system designed to recognize and incentivize community engagement within our Discord server.

    • This initiative allows members to earn EXP points through regular interactions, which in turn unlock a range of Celorian roles, from Beginner to Champion. Each role is tied to “Seeds” on Guild.xyz, providing members with an opportunity to climb the leaderboard and compete for monthly rewards.
    • At the end of each month, the top 5 most active members will share a total of 250 Celo, fostering a competitive yet inclusive environment that encourages consistent participation.
    • In addition to ongoing engagement rewards, we plan to introduce monthly quests featuring on-chain activities, further diversifying ways for members to earn points and deepen their involvement in the Celo ecosystem. This initiative not only rewards active members but also strengthens the sense of community by creating continuous learning and interaction opportunities.

  • Assisted Kuneko in Organizing a Discord Event for Luma Integration: We worked closely with Kuneko to help them setting up a Discord event pointing to the LuMa Invite to direct people to join the call, we also made some announcements in Discord to help engage community with this call.

  • Hosted Community Hangout: On September 19th, we successfully hosted a Community Hangout, providing a dedicated space for members to connect, share updates, and discuss ongoing developments within the Celo ecosystem.

    • These hangouts are part of our ongoing efforts to foster open dialogue, strengthen community bonds, and facilitate the exchange of knowledge and ideas among our members.
    • The positive engagement and participation demonstrated during this session underscored the importance of these regular gatherings in building a vibrant community.
    • At the end of the call we offered 25 Celo to the most engaged member, that this time was equally shared among two Celorians.

  • Creation of the Celo Layer 2 Support Channel: In response to the growing need for technical support and discussion around Layer 2 solutions within the Celo ecosystem, after a request from the DevRel team at CF we established a dedicated Celo L2 support channel on Discord.

    • This new channel serves as a central hub for users to ask questions, seek guidance, and engage in conversations about Layer 2 technologies. By offering a specialized support channel, we aim to streamline technical assistance and enhance user experience within our community.

  • Expansion of the Ticketing System for Developer Role Support: Recognizing the necessity for more robust support for developers in our community, we expanded our ticketing system to better accommodate those with the Developer role. This enhanced system enables developers to submit queries directly, ensuring they receive timely and organized responses from the Dev Rel team.

  • Launch of the Celo Communities Guild X Account for Enhanced Communication: To further enhance our communication strategies and strengthen our presence on social media, we established the X account for the Celo Communities Guild on Twitter. This account serves as a vital channel for sharing our initiatives, promoting upcoming events, and reposting content from community members. By actively engaging on Twitter, we aim to increase the visibility of community-led activities, foster a sense of inclusivity, and highlight the collaborative efforts within the Celo ecosystem.

Final Note

The main role of moderators in keeping Discord, Telegram, and Reddit channels spam-free and welcoming is crucial. Therefore, evaluating our work solely based on the presented metrics does not fully honor our dedication.

The emotional and cyclical nature of community engagement, especially in Web3, means that periods of high activity can quickly shift to low engagement due to external factors like market conditions or new developments. :globe_with_meridians:

Looking forward to keeping our community vibrant and engaged as we move forward! :muscle:
