- Hi there
+ Hi there,
-This week, we shipped 'Fund an Issue on Gitcoin.'
-This piece is geared for our open source funders on Gitcoin. We give you a succinct walkthrough of how
-to go from opening a Gitcoin account to funding your first issue.
+Over the past quarter, we've shipped a variety of features which add flexibility to your bounty toolkit. First, we provided options to have contest bounties and coooperative bounties.
+Then, we introduced 'Approval Only' bounties, where Gitcoiner's apply before starting work. Now, we've announced a few more often requested features!
+Learn more about 1) multi-payout bounties and 2) crowdfunding bounties.
-In addition to that, we published a longer thought piece on
-building platforms that maximize freedom.
-As cryptoeconomics and decentralized technology matures, we are fast approaching the intersection of
-intrinsic and extrinsic motivations in fields such as open source.
- In this post, Vivek takes a deep dive into what defines intrinsic and extrinsic motivations and how they will mix in the future of open source.
+We also posted on the History of Gas on Ethereum. As a dApp built on ethereum,
+we think it's important to understand a) what gas is, b) how it's fluctutated over time, and c) plans for stabilizing gas prices into the future. Hope you enjoy!

Now, we've announced a few more often requested features! -Learn more about 1) multi-payout bounties and 2) crowdfunding bounties. +We are consistently asked how Gitcoin, an open source network, has built such an invaluable community. +To this end, I wrote How to BUIDL a Mesh Network of Human Beings. This piece +examines the psychology and thought process we've put into building the Gitcoin community. We're lucky each one of you has chosen to be a part.
-We also posted on the History of Gas on Ethereum. As a dApp built on ethereum, -we think it's important to understand a) what gas is, b) how it's fluctutated over time, and c) plans for stabilizing gas prices into the future. Hope you enjoy! +We also announced a partnership with the Ethereum Name Service. We believe +ENS integrations are an important next step in decentralization, and are proud to sponsor any Github issues to integrate ENS into your dApps. Just open up a Github issue +and let us know - we'll take it from there.
