Welcome back for another issue of The Bulletin Bored, where I provide news, analytics, and other information on the Apecoin DAO. The Governance Working Group has been busy churning out content this past week. They recently released their DAO Handbook, their new proposed budget for the next six months, and a process to increase implementation reporting on proposals. This week’s issue covers each plus other updates across the DAO.
