May 5th, 2022 - MoonDAO officially announces it will send a lucky winner to space.
Founded in November 2021, MoonDAO is a decentralized autonomous organization (DAO) united by the mission of decentralizing access to space research and exploration. MoonDAO launched on Juicebox with an initial fundraising goal of $450,000 to send members into space and achieved huge success with 2,623 ETH (equivalent to $8.3 million at crowd raise close) raised from the community.
The community now has a treasury of $40+ million dollars (as of this writing) supported by MoonDAO’s governance token $MOONEY, and has successfully purchased two tickets from Blue Origin to go to space. This represents MoonDAO’s first major milestone in space exploration, but this is only the first mission: MoonDAO has a multiyear road-map ahead of it.
How will MoonDAO choose who flies to space?
On Sunday May 29th at 8am PST, MoonDAO is releasing a ticket to space NFT collection that gives the holders the opportunity of going to space.
The winners will have the opportunity to fly to space - provided that each individual must also meet Blue Origin’s requirements to fly. Blue Origin reserves the right, in its sole and absolute discretion, to evaluate all potential individuals and to approve or deny access to any voyage.
The holders of the ticket will also be airdropped $MOONEY, our DAO’s governance token, such that they can vote on issues in the DAO. Holders of the NFT will be fully fledged members of the DAO, with perks such as special access to future projects in the DAO, special access to events (like the party for our first members to be sent into space), and access to NFT holder exclusive parts of our Discord.
NO ENTRY FEE. NO PURCHASE OR OBLIGATION NECESSARY TO ENTER OR WIN. IT IS NOT NECESSARY TO OWN A TICKET TO SPACE NFT IN ORDER TO ENTER OR WIN. VOID WHERE PROHIBITED. THIS SWEEPSTAKES IS IN NO WAY SPONSORED, ENDORSED, SPONSORED OR APPROVED BY BLUE ORIGIN TEXAS, LLC (“BLUE ORIGIN”).
What’s next for MoonDAO?
MoonDAO has a very ambitious mission to decentralize access to space research and exploration and is focused on building a new type of organization that facilitates international collaboration of space related projects.
In line with this mission, MoonDAO has recently launched the MoonDAO Projects Program that offers anyone in the world up to $50,000 USD (for the first month) for projects that promote MoonDAO’s mission of decentralizing space exploration. Projects are wide-ranging and can involve research, engineering, governance, international space collaboration, or art. Current projects in the MoonDAO pipeline include the construction of a MoonDAO satellite, the production of the first music video filmed in space, and even preliminary projects leading to the design of a MoonDAO rocket.
