ApeCoin

ABSTRACT

TLDR : This proposal aims to present the ApeCoinDAO brand and weekly AIP updates on well-respected 3rd party Twitter Spaces to reach new audiences. This proposal aims to leverage Twitter Spaces as a resource to raise awareness about the ApeCoin ecosystem.

By educating new users about the ApeCoin DAO through regular Web 3.0 focused Twitter Spaces, we encourage community engagement and aim to onboard thousands of potential new members.

This effort will be instrumental in increasing participation and the number of stakeholders invested in the governance of the project, which adds to the further decentralisation of the DAO.

dNFTs more like damn, NFTs

We’ll use on chain data from Dynamic NFTs connected to Chainlink’s oracle to track KPIs and performance metrics. These NFTs will go through stages of Evolution, reflecting acknowledged contributions. This data and feedback from the pilot will inform their potential use across the entire DAO. More about it in the dedicated section Check this out : ApeCoin Tracker

Brief Overview :

• This proposal is for a 60-day trial-run to provide a weekly ApeCoinDAO update across multiple Web3/NFT Twitter Spaces deemed the best audience-DAO-culture-fit.
• By reaching new users through regular Web3 focused Twitter Spaces, we encourage curiosity and onboard hundreds of potential builders, creators, artists and other NFT communities to the DAO.
• This effort is instrumental in increasing participation and the overall number of stakeholders invested in the governance of the project, which adds to the further decentralisation of the DAO.
• This proposal requests a grant of UP TO 15,000 ApeCoin tokens to go directly to 10-15 Twitter Spaces and their teams as a Scholarship for an initial trial period of 60 days (approximately 60 appearances).

We are shooting for 5 spaces in the first month at up to 1000 APE each, which’ll be scaled up to 10 in the 2nd month.

Obligatory “Up to” cause some spaces will be much less, some would be sponsored giveaways and the better ones will be Scholarship based.

OVERALL COST

The maximum cost for this proposal over its 60 day running period (including giveaways, scholarships and partnerships) is estimated to be up to 15,000 ape with a max cap of 1000 ape per space

The funds will be transferred by the treasury directly to the Creators without the need for external management. This ensures no misappropriation of DAO funds can take place.

We’ll start with 5 spaces in the first month and scale it upto 10 spaces in the following month.

• May - working budget of 5,000 APE
• June - working budget of 10,000 APE

For comparison:
Rug Radio costs approx. $5k USD for a single appearance
Nifty Portal costs approx. $10k USD for a month of once weekly updates read by a team member

Total Request is 15,000 APE for 60 Days

Author is taking Zero Comp for this effort, a follow-up proposal may include some form of compensation
