Over $25K of Developer Rewards Up for Grabs

GM! The CharmVerse newsletter is now the Scout Game Newsletter. Same vibes, new design. This issue, we're diving into Scout Game Partner Rewards and Farcaster Mini Apps aimed at the developer community.

Scout Game & Divvi: Tackling Onchain Funding

Scout Game and Divvi are on missions to transform programmable funding. Together, we’re creating seamless, autonomous rewards that solve two critical problems: open source software funding and onchain user activation.

Scout Game tackles OSS contributor burnout by gamifying development work through game mechanics. Developers can scout other developers and compete in weekly competitions, turning contributions into an engaging game.

Divvi simplifies protocol funding through onchain reward vaults with predefined KPIs. These vaults autonomously reward developers as users transact, no reports or applications needed.

Together, they create a full-circle solution that funds both the public infrastructure developers rely on and rewards the app builders bringing users into the ecosystem. This transforms onchain funding from bureaucratic grant processes into performance-based, automated reward systems with programmable weighting mechanisms.

Check out the Scout Game x Divvi Partner Rewards program to start earning rewards for your app’s onchain transactions.

Scout Game × Arbitrum

The upcoming Arbitrum Rewards Program provides incentives to Developers contributing to Open Source on Arbitrum. Weather you are a seasoned Arbitrum developer or ready to make your first commit, this ones for you. Keep your eyes open for this to launch soon. The best way is to sign up, start playing Scout Game and follow us on Farcaster.
