Summary
I would like to propose establishing a MAP Community Contributor program or MAP Ambassador Program for empowering mappers to contribute to MAP marketing efforts and introducing MAP’s strong tech foundation to the Web3 community as a whole.
Background
-
MAP Mainnet was launched successfully on August 31, 2022 and since then we’ve gained more attention than we did before. However, with MAP’s solid tech foundation, I believe we deserve more recognition. To achieve that, we’ll need to find and engage those who are interested in and would like to know more about MAP Protocol. A community contributor program will be perfect to do that and also to scale up MAP Protocol’s influence in the blockchain and Web3 space.
-
The program will be open to anyone who would like to be the missionary for MAP Protocol and who wants to make contributions for bootstrapping MAP Protocol’s expanding ecosystem & community. It will operate in a bottom-up laissez-faire manner; the team can of course provide participants some guidance and help when necessary.
Specification
How will they participate?
- Participants will need to submit their published content to a google form for review before claim for rewards.
General Selection Criteria (for those will receive the reward):
- The work that contributors do must be something that will bring MAP Protocol more recognition, either in online media or local Web3 groups.
- For example, they can publish PR articles about MAP crosschain/omnichain, informative blog write-ups, and YouTube explainer videos that increase MAP’s follower numbers. They can also organize and operate in MAP Protocol’s local community or SNS platforms, promote validator recruiting, etc.
-
Contributors must be holders of $MAP token and understand MAP Protocol’s underlying cross-chain mechanism or the instruments used for MAP’s fully secure cross-chain solution such as MAP Protocol SDK, light-client, etc.
-
Contributors should keep their work as part of their ongoing and long-term commitment for MAP Protocol!!!
Who will review the submitted work?
- MAP foundation, aka, the MAP team should screen submitted work first and then evaluate the quality of selected work so the rewards will be weighted, instead of giving out rewards regardless of the quality.
Financial Implication
-
Those contributors will receive rewards for the work they’ve done, and that reward should be something long-term with value not a one-time payment.
-
I suggest that we should take 5 million $MAP from Ecosystem DAO as the MAP Community Contributor Grant or MAP Ambassador Grant to encourage members to make long-term contributions and become the MAP missionaries in the Web3 world.
Next Steps
Once the proposal is approved, the following actions should be taken:
- Send out contributor google forms across MAP community and MAP socials;
- MAP team starts to review and update the submission status to the community;
- MAP team selects the submissions and communicates the rewards distribution scheme to the community.
Thank you for reading. Feel free to chime in and add your thoughts on the proposal!
