💡 Description: This initiative proposes allocating funds from the DreamDAO treasury to support Amanda’s attendance at ETHCC – Cannes, one of the most important Web3 conferences globally. The goal is not just to attend, but to represent DreamDAO, gather insights, and build a Knowledge Hub that supports the education of Gen Z about Web3 and ReFi. DreamDAO was granted funds by Public Nouns (PNouns) to deliver on milestones such as launching a bootcamp and educating new leaders. However, these milestones are currently unfulfilled. This initiative leverages ETHCC as a launchpad to: Re-engage the community
