NEAR YEAR

On-chain lists are created for different categories, with projects and profiles that have existing on-chain accounts automatically added.

During the nomination period, nominated projects are onboarded to the chain, and curators can create their own lists to boost new nominees. This is also the time to debate and advocate for 2024 achievements.

During the voting period, verified humans with ShardDog NFTs choose the top winners, followed by an awards show.

• Official nominations, announcement article and call for nominations
• Whole article put out with justification
• Initial Content

• People begin to submit their own lists
