Clarifications might be required. **Step 3:** If accepted, complete identity verification and formalize your agreement with our cooperative. **Step 4:** Share updates and reports in the #build feed to help coordinate collaborations across projects. **Step 5:** Propose planned fund transfers from `build.sputnik-dao.near` to your verified NEAR account. Council members—@efiz.near, @plugrel.near, and @james.near—will review each transfer proposal, and we currently use majority rule (2/3 votes) as the policy for approval. ### CREATE YOUR OWN THINGS [NearBuilders.org](https://nearbuilders.org) is a [template](https://github.com/nearbuilders/gateway), which others can use to build their own apps / gateways on [everything](https://everything.dev). *Your comments are welcome!
