It is an collectively crafted and co-owned by the projects that use it. Closer allows co-living and village operators to deploy a ERC20 token, which gives their members access to utilities such as co-living places and governance influence. It also provides features for projects to onboard their members, list events, sell tickets, and manage inventory.\n\nCloser is focused on developing an operating system for sovereign communities in the intersection of web3, community, and regeneration, with a special emphasis on land projects.\n\n## Why support Closer?\nWe have been building in the open since 3 years - bootstrapping and funded by grants from Climate Collective, Regen Network and Gitcoin.\n\nWe are a small and agile team, and the tech we have been building is slowly getting traction and serving the needs to real communities on the ground.\n\n## Who's using Closer?\nWe are developing the tools for projects such as [Traditional Dream Factory](https://traditionaldreamfactory.com), a regenerative village in Portugal.\n[Moos](https://moos.garden) in Berlin is aiming to be the first Free House in the city. \n\nWe are right now in talks with multiples conservation projects and regenerative villages that would like to implement our model, including indigenous tribes in the Philippines, multiple villages in Portugal, a land restoration effort in Poland and more.\n\n## From Ownership to Stewardship\nCloser enables transitioning real estate into a new form of commons, that 's accessed and governed by web3 (through local DAOs).\nWe offer primitives such as:\n- a native community token for each project\n- Proof of Presence - a indicator of how much time a wallet holder spent in a space\n- Proof of Sweat - an indicator of how much work a wallet holder put into a project\n\n## Roadmap\nWe are currently building out further integrations and refining the protocol. Our prototype is operational but we are not yet in a phase of having revenue.\nWe are aiming to develop our governance model out further - and the more we can be grant funded, the more it enables us to keep everything available at no cost for non-profits we want to support.\n\nWe aim to develop an index token that could provide liquidity to regenerative real estate projects and offer an elegant natural asset solution for treasuries wanting to hold exposure to both real world assets and nature based solutions.", "logoImgData": {}, "bannerImgData": {}, "projectGithub": "closerdao", "projectTwitter": "closereartg"}
