POIDH: the open bounty protocol

Technical6/10Some technical depth

Kenny, founder of POIDH, breaks down the open bounty protocol he built - put a bounty on-chain, transparently, and anyone can fund it, add to it, or claim it. The throughline: POIDH is a protocol, not just an app. poidh.xyz is the most popular front end, but anyone can build their own - NARS DAO launched an alternate front end the morning of the session. Zaal walks through running real bounties: the Best ZABAL Gamez Ad bounty with 8 submissions, a submitters board that queries the contract directly with an AI-judged rubric, and rewarding every submitter through an Empire Builder leaderboard. Kenny shows composability in action - Femi shipped an NFT marketplace MVP in 90 minutes off the open-source repo - then creates a new bounty live: the ZABAL Gamez Open Pot, open through July.

Key takeaways
  • POIDH is a protocol, not an app - anyone can build a front end on the same contracts, like NARS DAO did.
  • Open bounties let anyone add funds on top; deadlines plus single-winner curation surface real value over money-grabbers.
  • Composability compounds: Femi built an NFT marketplace MVP in 90 minutes from the open repo, and Vini App added POIDH the same week.
  • Good bounties carry maximum context - a pre-cleared brand kit, a clear rubric, a markdown description.
  • You can reward every participant programmatically through an Empire Builder leaderboard, not just the winner.
