Specification

How will this Delegate Mission Request help accomplish the above Intent?

  • Grow the Superchain
    • More unique contracts will be deployed across the superchain due to increase of NFT contracts and experiments deployed
    • Contest winners trickle down wins into:
      • creating more on chain projects
      • supporting other artists
      • engaging in protocols & other projects such as DeFi
    • Guaranteed interaction from >50 unique addresses considering even low estimations of NFT minters
    • Encouraged creation and usage of on-chain tools in activities involved such as use of submission tools and contract deployers
  • Improve the Consumer Experience
    • Creation of a space where artists, creatives, collectors, and protocols continue to love and appreciate the art (say no to isolation!)
    • Establishing a place of contact between on-chain users and crypto projects and protocols looking to have more eyes on projects
    • Creation of an in-house design service where artists can submit bounties created by anyone, may they be in Web2 or Web3
      • Making the collective self-sustaining as projects pay for expenses in exchange of art, design help, and promotion
    • The mission request is a direct engagement of consumers and users of on-chain use cases (!!)
    • WeLovetheArt has brought unique addresses on to the chain, whereas this initiative advocates for the repeat transactions of these new addresses
    • Retain WeLovetheArt submitters and increase transactions of projects housed in the OP chain

What is required to execute this Delegate Mission Request?

  • Contact of WeLovetheArt submitters to call that there is a place for them to stay <3

    • Creating communal activities and weekly calls
    • Youtube channel to create content, produce shows, and record/document activities
    • Outreach for design and art bounties in web2 and web3
    • Curation for the art and design produced

How should the Token House measure progress towards this Mission?

  • The mission utilises funds for over a 3 month period in which the collective shall become self-sustaining
  • Cannot do the math on this at the moment given that the budget requested are just estimations and need more advice from OP individuals

How should badgeholders measure impact upon completion of this Mission?

  • The collective should have had:
    • A twitter community with X amount of organic followers
      • Producing curated projects created by artists
      • Promotion of projects and protocols housed in OP chain
      • Bounty alerts for artists and designers
