A Medley for Nine Seasons | BanklessDAO Weekly Rollup
Catch Up With What Happened This Week in BanklessDAO
Dear Bankless Nation 🏴,
This being Gap Week, it’s a short and sweet version of the Weekly Rollup. However, you may notice we’ve rolled out a brand new banner image — we may be super tired but at least the graphics are fresh 😄.
Season 9 is starting on Monday and it promises to be a big finish to a big year at bDAO! We have two new members on Grants Committee: Ornella and PaulitoBankless. Congratulations and thank you for stepping up to work with Icedcool, links, Steff, and 0xbaer this coming season.
Thanks must also go to Tundeeey Turner and the Marketing Department team working on the Season 9 kick off next week. The theme is ‘Unlocking The Future’ and it’s happening on X on Friday, September 8, 2023 at 4pm UTC (replacing the Week 1 Community Call).
There’s a packed agenda for the launch, reflecting the amount of activity happening across the DAO. No doubt we’ll see progress made towards existing projects and guild/department initiatives during Season 9, and we can also expect a bunch of new ideas to surface in relation to tlBANK and membership structures.
Enjoy the last few days of the break, and let’s get on track to make Season 9 Super Fine!

A Medley for Season 9
Author: trewkat
Maybe you expected a recap of Season 8, and/or a preview of Season 9 for this week’s Rollup, but if you’re a regular reader of the Rollup, you probably know already what that would say.
So instead here’s a ditty that you can sing to yourself in the shower or while you’re waiting for a transaction to go through 😄.
It’s a medley, so be ready to change up your vocal style to suit!
bDAO Sails into Season 9
The DAO and its members sail web3
In a beautiful bankless boat:
We’ve internet money, and plenty of funny
Wrapped up in an onchain vote.
The DAO looks up to the stars above,
our people and value shine far.
"Oh bDAO we say, Oh bDAO you rock, What a wonderful DAO you are,
You are,
What a wonderful DAO you are!"
~~~
Go on now, go, lock up your BANK
Just lock it up now
And the DAO will give you thanks.
Aren't we the ones who try to keep the DAO vibes high?
Did you think we'd crumble?
You think we'd lay down and die?
Oh no, not us, we will survive
Oh, as long as we know how to vote, we know we'll stay alive.
To go bankless is to live
We've got new ideas to give and we'll survive
We will survive, hey, hey.
~~~
We can buy our own tokens,
Write proposals for change
Talk in our channels they’re open,
Share ideas and make gains.
We can keep on advancing
And bring the world to blockchain
Yeah, we can make the world go self-sovereign.
