## Completed

- External distribution: published a GitHub Release for the interactive learning update: Merkle Tree Builder plus EIP-1559 Gas Fee Calculator.
- Public post queue: added reusable X/Farcaster, Chinese community, and short-form product update copy anchored to the release link.
- Distribution tracker: marked GitHub Release as published and moved Twitter/X plus learnblockchain.cn/community targets to ready-to-publish status.
- Sponsor and revenue: drafted a Safe/Reown impact memo using the interactive learning release, current GitHub metrics, and official Safe/Reown positioning.
- Sponsor kit: refreshed current metrics to 614 stars, 13 contributors, 55 glossary entries, 147 GitHub views, and 4569 GitHub clones over the latest 14-day window.
- Content product: added step-by-step Bitcoin Script examples for P2PKH, P2SH, 2-of-3 multisig, and CLTV to close the substance of #34.
- Community: created and pinned the public 1000-star roadmap issue [#156](https://github.com/beihaili/Get-Started-with-Web3/issues/156).
- Community: seeded six new contributor-ready good-first issues [#157](https://github.com/beihaili/Get-Started-with-Web3/issues/157)-[#162](https://github.com/beihaili/Get-Started-with-Web3/issues/162), bringing the open good-first issue queue to 10.
- Community infrastructure: updated issue templates to request expected files, definition of done, and good-first-issue suitability.
- AI-native productization: added a copy-paste MCP client configuration snippet to both READMEs and generated AI artifacts, and corrected README glossary count to 55.
- AI-native monetization: drafted landing-page copy for future hosted `generate_personalized_web3_plan` and `audit_learning_answer` tools, with explicit language that the local MCP remains free and read-only.
- Community recognition: added a monthly contributor spotlight template and upgraded the contributors page with a starter-issue CTA, contributor ladder link, and conservative recognition boundary.
- Monetization trust: reviewed donation and affiliate disclosures, added a public disclosure review, and made support-page affiliate/sponsor/crypto-tip boundaries explicit.
- Community contribution: reviewed, approved, and merged [#167](https://github.com/beihaili/Get-Started-with-Web3/pull/167) from `leno23`, closing [#159](https://github.com/beihaili/Get-Started-with-Web3/issues/159) and proving the good-first proofreading loop can convert.
- Community backlog: created replacement starter issue [#169](https://github.com/beihaili/Get-Started-with-Web3/issues/169) so the open good-first queue stays at 10 after #159 closed.
- Community recognition: created the first contributor spotlight for `leno23` using public PR/issue evidence, and linked the spotlights index from both READMEs.
- Community roadmap: posted the first contributor spotlight update to pinned roadmap issue [#156](https://github.com/beihaili/Get-Started-with-Web3/issues/156#issuecomment-4474624411), tying [#167](https://github.com/beihaili/Get-Started-with-Web3/pull/167), [#159](https://github.com/beihaili/Get-Started-with-Web3/issues/159), and [#169](https://github.com/beihaili/Get-Started-with-Web3/issues/169) into the public 1000-star operating loop.
- Content product: added the first English Layer 2 / cross-chain lesson translation at `en/L2CrossChain/01_WhyScaling/README.md`, reducing translation coverage warnings from 17 to 16 and raising the AI-native lesson index from 106 to 107 entries.
- Operations hygiene: exposed the existing translation coverage checker as `npm run translation:check` and documented it in `AGENTS.md`.
- Community backlog: opened follow-up starter issue [#175](https://github.com/beihaili/Get-Started-with-Web3/issues/175) for the remaining four L2 English translations, bringing the open good-first queue to 11.
- AI-native maintenance: regenerated `ai/` and `public/ai/` artifacts after the English lesson copy edit so indexed lesson metadata stays aligned with source content.
- Operations hygiene: started the 2026-05-18 daily report with current metrics, release evidence, and next operating block.

## Blockers And Risks

- Growth is still flat at 614 stars; distribution must now move from prepared copy to actually published posts.
- GitHub Discussions are disabled, so GitHub-native community updates currently need to use Releases, Issues, PR comments, or README/docs.
- Translation coverage now reports 16 missing-English warnings after the first L2 lesson translation; the remaining L2 lesson work is packaged as [#175](https://github.com/beihaili/Get-Started-with-Web3/issues/175), and DAO plus several non-core docs still need coverage or classification.
- Sponsor outreach has not been sent; Safe/Reown memo is now ready, but actual sending still needs a human channel or connector.
- Starter issue queue is healthy at 11 open good-first issues after #175 packaged the remaining L2 translation work; contributor recognition now has a real accepted PR, first spotlight artifact, and public roadmap update.
- Paid AI tool copy is only a draft; enabling hosted payment, x402 enforcement, affiliate expansion, or any wallet/payment flow still requires explicit confirmation.

## Next Operating Block

1. Publish the Draft 3 X/Farcaster thread and Chinese community post, then record links and visible metrics.
2. Route contributors toward [#175](https://github.com/beihaili/Get-Started-with-Web3/issues/175) or continue with `L2CrossChain/02_RollupPrinciples` if no contributor picks it up.
3. Send the Safe or Reown memo through the chosen channel, then record the sent link/date and any reply.
4. Decide whether Phase 1 paid-tool validation should use waitlist/manual access, GitHub Sponsors, Stripe, or an x402 hosted experiment.
