Announcing the D_D DevConnect Giveaway

With the latest proposal passing in the DAO snapshot vote, we are locked, loaded and ready to revitalize what made Developer DAO great by helping send 3 active contributors to DevConnect with up to $2000 each. We wanted to bring back that “build web3 with friends” vibe that arguably made D_D one of the best developer communities in the ecosystem. Many people who’ve come through the DAO have gone on to have incredible careers, founded multi-million dollar companies and most important of all, made great human connections along the way. Whether chilling in VC5 or hanging out at a global crypto conference, the vibes have always been immaculate which is why we’re looking to help send 3 of the most active members in the community to DevConnect. Who knows, maybe you’ll hack your way to a new job or start a new company 👀

Important Dates

  • Giveaway Submission Deadline: October 24th, 2025

  • Winner Selection: Winners will be announced and contacted the week of Oct 31st, 2025 and distribution of funds will follow

    • Note: Winners will need to submit proof they can attend and provide some level of KYC
  • DevConnect: November 17-22, 2025

  • D_D IRL event at DevConnect: TBA but be sure to subscribe to our Luma Events page to hear about it first

How to Enter the Giveaway

Simply sign up for the giveaway using the following form:

https://devdao.to/devconnect-2025

After you sign up you’ll see a unique referral link be shown to you which you can share with your friends to get you more points when they sign up for the giveaway. So be sure to reach out to your old D_D buddies to refer them to sign up as well! The more referrals you get, the more points you’ll collect which will be taken in consideration in our scoring system when we pick winners.

How to Participate and Win

While the referral points will help your case, it won’t be enough. To really solidify your odds you need to show that you’re an active member of the community with a curated list of D_D related participation activities (see below) that we’ll take into consideration. There is a scoring system behind all of this with all the activities listed below providing scoring points; however, there are some activities that are worth more points then others (e.g. creating tutorial content). In the same vein you don’t want lose out on points for low hanging fruit activities like following social accounts, subscribing to the newsletter, luma events page, minting DevNTell episodes, etc..

Note: The full points system will be revealed at a later date

The more you participate, the more points you’ll earn and more likely it will be that you’ll get selected (past participation also counts)

Participation Activities

General DAO participation

    • Doesn’t have to be web3/protocol specific, can span the broad range of tech (AI, infra, system design, etc…)

    • Written (blog, X thread, etc…), Video format (YouTube, X video, etc…), GitHub repos, etc…

    • Once you’ve created the content be sure to share it on X and tag the DAO’s X Account so we know about it (and can amplify it)
