Community & Integrations
Throughout these past few days, we’ve been working hard to give
more autonomy to the community to allow everyone to participate
and give value to the group. This is a big step for us as we move
forward in the direction of community ownership and increased DAO
participation in the project. Moreover, we’ve been further growing
our community and utility by partnering up with different projects
and protocols in the Solana ecosystem. All Pirates are now free to
borrow against their NFT to receive an instant loan for up to 1 week
by pawning their NFT with Pawn Shop Gnomies. Honey Finance will
also become available starting next week. We’re already working on
a few other integrations and partnerships, more details soon ;)
1/1 NFT Auction
Finally, to further increase community involvement we’ll be soon
hosting the first 1/1 Defi Pirate related NFT, proceeds from which
will be used as a Prize pot for community events.
