Please describe your proposed solution.
The Cardano Stonerz Club is requesting funding to support scaling up of our operations. This funding will go to support the Host and Co-hosts, be used to help organize our events, used to support our CNFT giveaways, and to build our Cardano based infrastructure of our club.
The Cardano Stonerz club is the product we are offering to improve. We work hard on providing fresh, entertaining content on a daily basis. Organization of our group will be a benefit to the Cardano community by improving the end user experience. Cardano Stonerz Club is the premiere destination in twitter spaces for the Cardano community to come together, but twitter is not de-centralized. The Community is better served by integration into immutable Cardano infrastructure.
CSC is really fun and entertaining and we have many popular and frequent guests. The show has included Charles Hoskinson, or as we like to call him Uncle Charlie. Many community members who love Cardano frequent the CSC. The Show often features NFT artists, NFT Collectors, Plutus pioneers, IOG employees, professional wrestlers, musicians, and many different personalities. The Cardano Stonerz Club has many Cardano Community events. We created Shill-a-mania which is a contest for projects to "shill" against each other in hopes of promoting different aspects of Cardano. We would like to broadcast these meetings throughout the ecosystem by integrating with Cardano's existing DApps and protocols.
CSC plans to develop an autonomous organization with the tools currently available to us. This will include formation of our infrastructure, bylaws, and Cardano Stonerz club Constitution. CSC will hire member to be responsible for recording and integrating CSC content into Cardano infrastructure. This will Include minting immutable copies of the show via Arweave into Cardano NFT's. We will also expand our reach on other legacy web 2 systems such as YouTube, twitch, Tiktok, Instagram. CSC plans to facilitate the release of original music NFT's in order to support artists on Cardano.
The Cardano Stonerz Club offers it's members unique insight into learning about blockchain technology which helps develop their skills. This type of interaction plays a role in our communities ability to understand technology and gives them relevant skills to compete in a changing technological environment. CSC atmosphere also promotes peaceful and inclusive societies because of the work we do in innovating art, Tech, science, philosophy.
We have an average of hundreds of people per night on the show with peaks of thousands of people per show. The proposed Solution would expand our reach to improve our community integrations in new world of de-centralized apps and products. We would expand our reach by broadcasting our shows onto more platforms than currently feature Cardano Stonerz club content. Supporting the Host Big Joe the don, and Co-Host Willyboy will allow them to focus on building the Stonerz Club full time.
*CSC = Cardano Stonerz club
Please describe how your proposed solution will address the Challenge that you have submitted it in.
We will scale Cardano's most exciting Community product, the Cardano Stonerz Club. We want to increase engagement and participation in the community by Integrating our operations into Cardano protocols and by creating the highest quality content.
This addresses the challenge by creating Integrations with other existing services, products, and protocols that improve the end-user experience. This is really needed to spread awareness about the Cardano blockchain and to make it a fun place to be. Integrations with other existing services include but not limited to a full schedule of live content from our hosts and community leaders from twitter spaces, and live person Cardano events in Los Angeles California. All of which is to be broadcast on the Cardano blockchain and various social media platforms on legacy Web systems.
This funding will allow Cardano Stonerz Club to operate in digital space as a permanent community fixture. This proposal will Increase the number of integrations that bring existing solutions together for a more seamless and connected experience between different products. We will Increase the quality of existing products & integrations through the proposed improvements that will increase usage by the community by providing desirable and entertaining content.
What are the main risks that could prevent you from delivering the project successfully and please explain how you will mitigate each risk?
We work with a group of very determined Cardano trailblazers!
Together we are strong! The more funding we have the more work we can do, not getting enough funding is a risk.
Another challenge to this initiative would be to not create interesting high quality content. I think that is one of the most important aspects of this campaign. It cannot be boring, has to be really fun and engaging. We are the perfect group to do amazing things for the Cardano community.
