Crypto Altruism Monthly Recap - April 2024




Let’s GROW! 🌱

What a month! Gitcoin Grants Round 20 (aka GG20) kicked off in April, and although we sat this one out as a grantee, we still took the opportunity to participate as a community member, including as a host on the Let’s GROW Live 24/7 X spaces! In these spaces, we spoke with other public goods builders on how they’re leveraging Web3 for good and creating real world impact!

In April, we also had the honor of interviewing so many incredible builders, including some ReFi OGs, diving into new use cases, and creating more educational content for Web3 builders.

So let’s dive into some of the highlights from April 👇
