Thank you @Euphoria, we appreciate your valuable contributions.

The onboarding process will focus on engaging Web2 gamers, streamers, Web3 contributors, and new entrants through clear, actionable steps.

Gamers will be incentivized with ARB prize pools, promotional support, and walkthrough guidance to help them seamlessly use SankoTV - an Arbitrum-native platform for their streaming activities.

Additionally, we will organize webinars to ensure participants gain confidence and understanding to navigate the platform - with the OSPN team offering personalized support throughout.

Web3 contributors and new entrants will receive support to explore opportunities in Arbitrum Orbit and governance.

By showcasing the benefits and scalability of Arbitrum, we will guide brands and entrepreneurs to launch their own appchains on Arbitrum to encourage growth and innovation.

We will also implement regular feedback collection mechanisms through surveys and community discussions to refine the onboarding process continuously and ensure its success.

gm @0xDonPepe,

Thank you for your response, and the Questbook suggestion. The budget is negotiable. We were also intending on allocating 18,000 ARB towards a prize pool to reward the top streamers on SankoTV throughout the 6 month period, and we're open to allocating a larger prize pool to incentivize the use of other dApps within the Arbitrum ecosystem.

Also, we intend for the content to live on a dedicated YouTube channel, not the OSPN account. We plan to name the account "Arbitrum DAO Creator Economy" and open up the org for other content creators within the DAO as well.

I appreciate you and @Gabriel for suggesting the Arbitrum Ambassador Program and Questbook's season 3. We can explore these options, but we're also open to reducing or restructuring the distributions of the funds requested.

Hey @Tekr0x.eth,

Thank you for taking the time to respond to our proposal. I really like the ideas that you suggested Opening up roles to everyone, especially content creators would be an ideal approach to establish a decentralized creator economy. We welcome the idea of Including existing partners such as ANDAO. Our mission is to onboard more content creators and run our media org like an open source software company. I was inspired by the vibrancy of the Linux community as I established OSPN (Open Source People's Network) in 2023. We ultimately want to share info about the benefits of cryptography, how it empowers creators, and inspire more people to build onchain. We're certainly willing to open up this initiative to include more content creators, while offering assistance with video editing, graphic design, research, and creating a system for rewarding DAO contributors that offers valuable feedback on forum, such as yourself with non transferrable NFTs for achievements such as "Contributor of the Week/Month."

As far as incorporating Jokerace, we can use the platform to host competitions where people vote on their favorite dApps on Arbitrum, and we can reward the winner with a prize pool from the grant allocation. Also, in our proposal, we offered the creation of a prize pool for the top streamers on SankoTV in the amount of 18k ARB, but we can use that portion or more to fund Jokerace competitions instead, if there's more community interest there.

Once again, thank you for your response, looking forward to adjusting the proposal a bit with your suggestions, and the other solid suggestions below by @0xDonPepe and @Gabriel to shape our proposal in a way that aligns with the DAO, and in a way that is much collaborative as well.

Thank you @Melasin for your proposal. While we appreciate the initiative, several key areas need refinement:

First, the proposed scope is too broad. While valuable, content creation for builders and projects often falls outside core DAO activities. A more focused approach would strengthen the proposal. For example, focusing specifically on creators through content creation of projects building on Arbitrum and their innovations.

Though well-intentioned, creating a new social channel would likely contribute to more content fragmentation. This is a broader challenge that needs a coordinated solution from the DAO. But at this time, we feel that a new channel would struggle to gain meaningful traction.

The proposed costs, including the 18k ARB prize allocation, appear high relative to the projected impact. The proposal needs clear KPIs, whether they're builder engagement targets, content creator metrics, or other concrete goals. Even approximate targets would help evaluate potential value.

Given these points, we align with @Gabriel and @danielo's recommendation to pursue this through Questbook as a grant rather than direct DAO funding. This would allow you to demonstrate proof of concept with a more targeted scope:

We see merit in your proposal and encourage you to refine it, taking into account these considerations.

This proposal outlines a comprehensive and ambitious initiative to build a creator economy within the Arbitrum ecosystem. The author had the opportunity to share their proposal on yesterday's community call. The team appears to have relevant experience from their previous work with the Rari Foundation and Edu DAO. The plan to create weekly long-form and short-form content, coupled with a focus on Arbitrum Orbit appchains, consumer apps like SankoTV, and governance forum activity, is well thought out. The introduction of non-transferable NFTs to recognize top forum contributors is a creative and effective way to incentivize high-quality engagement—similar to POAPs. A similar experiment during the Seed Latam governance call proved to be very effective.

While the total grant request of 88,000 ARB is detailed, the breakdown could benefit from more granularity. For example: • How much of the 30,000 ARB allocated to content planning and script creation is dedicated to research versus actual scriptwriting? • How will the 18,000 ARB for the SankoTV prize pool be distributed and monitored to ensure fairness and transparency?

Additionally, while the proposal outlines deliverables, it lacks specific KPIs. What does success for this program look like? What are the target numbers for views, engagements, or new users onboarded through the content?

It was already mentioned in last week's call that the author should consider applying for Questbook, which would be a more beneficial route than a DAO vote.

This represents the thoughts of the GMX governance committee

Thanks for putting this up, Melasin.

There seem to be some positives going off delegates' feedback which is good. There's also the suggestion to go through Questbook which we believe your team should consider.

On this comment by jameskbh, we were a bit curious so we went through the OSPN YT channel and saw your videos in collaboration RARI Foundation.

Finally, there's also some overlap with the ArbitrumHub's proposal along content creation and dissemination, as well as community engagement. Would be great to see if you two could work together on some level.

Thank you for this proposal. We appreciate the ideas about driving community engagement and adoption of Arbitrum tech through content and incentives. However, there are several elements in the proposal that are missing and we would have liked to see, most importantly the lack of KPIs and how this initiative would translate to measurable outcomes for the DAO. From the proposal, no prior work has been done on this—it still an idea at this stage that needs to be built from scratch. This means that the proposal ought to have made a much stronger case for why the DAO should even fund this initiative.

Given the nature of this proposal it might be more appropriate to seek funding through other channels (e.g., Questbook). Regarding direct DAO funding, we are somewhat always biased towards supporting tested, demonstrably high-impact and data-driven initiatives that strategically address DAO objectives.

We hope you take our feedback into consideration. Goodluck!

The following reflects the views of the Lampros DAO governance team, composed of Chain_L (@Blueweb), @Euphoria, and Hirangi Pandya (@Nyx), based on our combined research, analysis, and ideation.

Thank you for putting forward this detailed proposal. This initiative could enhance our ecosystem's visibility and engagement.

We appreciate the comprehensive approach outlined in the document, particularly the goal of moving beyond price speculation. There is indeed a need for such an initiative that highlights the power of Arbitrum beyond its price.

We're particularly interested in your plan to see "non-transferable NFTs" for recognizing contributors. When you mention these will be issued for "Contributor of the Year', 'Quarter', 'Month', and 'Week'", it raises some questions about the long-term value and implementation of this recognition system. We suggest going beyond just creating NFTs and developing a comprehensive recognition program. Some additional benefits we would like to see in the proposal beyond just NFTs.

The use of AI for feedback analysis is great, but it raises questions about the accuracy to us. We suggest implementing a hybrid approach where AI provides initial analysis, but human moderators do a final review for start. This ensures that nuanced, context-specific contributions are not overlooked by an algorithmic system.

Could you clarify the onboarding process? Are there any specific steps, criteria, or support mechanisms you've developed to successfully onboard these new participants into the Arbitrum ecosystem?

We think it makes sense to start small and prove the idea works. Instead of giving all the money at once, why not keep it milestone-based payments?

Lastly, we echo with other delegates that this proposal could benefit from a pilot version through the Questbook round, which would help establish a clear roadmap for the future expansion of this initiative.

We liked this idea and want to help make it better. These are just our thoughts to help improve the proposal and make sure it helps the Arbitrum community grow.

Hi there,

I overall like that approach and think it can help boost Arbitrums usage. What I liked for myself to learn a lot were the videos of Finematics, teaching me how DeFi works in an easy and understandable manner. I would even go that far and say that having Finematics creating videos for the DAO would be a huge benefit, as he already has a big group of follower and really understands crypto and videocreation and editing.

It might be a good idea to get in touch because why should we start at the beginning if there are already people out there that have a web3 native audience with great videos.

Thank you for sharing this proposal. I appreciate the thought and effort you've put into it. I definitely agree that strengthening Arbitrum's content marketing is key to its success.

While I'm excited about the vision, I think it might be best to hold off on this specific approach for now. With @Entropy leading the MVP and SOS, it's crucial that our marketing efforts are perfectly synchronized with those key initiatives.

I'm a bit confused about the role of forum data in identifying top contributors, given that creator activity will primarily happen on platforms like YouTube and X.

And while you mentioned the creator economy, the proposal seems to have a pre-defined team. If and when we move forward with this, I'd love to see a completely decentralized approach with lots and lots of creators generating content around the world - organically sharing the Arbitrum story - something like marketing ambassadors.

Let's keep this conversation going! Once we have a clearer picture of our short-term and mid-term goals, we can revisit this concept and explore how it might best fit into the overall marketing strategy.

I like the motivation behind this proposal, it’ll push the community to engage more when their contributions are recognized.

Also, the exposure from video content will help boost Arbitrum’s brand.

That said, just having a good motivation and a "successful" outcome isn't enough to get the proposal passed :). I agree with other delegates:

• There should be a clear plan for each role, the hours involved, the specific outcomes expected (both quality and quantity).
• The budget of 88K seems high compared to the proposed roles and timeline 6 months.

• The budget of 88K seems high compared to the proposed roles and timeline 6 months.

Well, it seems to me an interesting proposal and more than necessary as it was at the time of arbitrum community market. I value and appreciate the proposal but I have certain questions and considerations.

As main, I am interested in the type of content, how will it be? I understand the content that will be there, I like it, but I mean the format, will it be animation? like a podcast with several people talking? vlog? weekly summary with a single creator sharing his screen? more like streaming format? what is the justification for the chosen format?

On the other hand, I understand perfectly well that the idea is to be a strong presence on youtube and that's why a big budget and quality search is being made, I like that ambition but, is it necessary? I don't know if I think the whole cost is expensive, but to dedicate all that equipment and money to a single channel? again, what I found most valuable about the proposal is the desire to spread the DAO and ARB beyond speculation, but in a sea of speculative content, a single drop of quality content may be lost (or, ideally, highlighted), what I mean is: why not dump all that equipment to a series of channels? I think that by accommodating the budget and goals, although more expensive, it will be more profitable in terms of human capital, KPIs and reputation to start fostering small and several channels supervised, managed and advised by the proposed team. We could also consider, with this modality, overcoming the language barrier and contacting content creators from other languages... Also, on the other hand, I miss in the proposal numbers and clear limits, what KPIs or number defines that the case is a success? what numbers would symbolize the closure of the project? where do you aim to reach in a year?

Hello! Thanks for your proposal.

Echoing some comments from fellow delegates, I believe that it needs some rework

• The requested amount is too high
• the OP's social media platforms do not have enough traction to amplify it. It makes us wonder if this initiative's reach will justify the costs.
• It makes sense to go through a grant program, where the milestones and KPIs will be closely monitored.
• provide more samples to attest to the quality of work
• while I agree that it is hard to plan that much in advance, the content creation is a big part of the budget, and it should have a breakdown of items you know you will cover.

I hope this helps, and I wish you good luck!

Thank you for sharing this proposal. It feels like a breath of fresh air, and I’m glad to see it on the forum.

My main concern is that the ideas you proposed seem very basic and generic. It feels like they don’t fully understand the ecosystem. I’d like the proposal much more if:

1. It included existing partners already posting about the Arbitrum ecosystem (like ANDAO, ArbitrumDAO, Hunter (videos) etc.).
2. It opened roles to everyone. You could invite other content creators to join the program and act as a committee instead of service providers.
3. It incorporated existing web3 tools like Jokerace. This would help you reach a broader crypto audience and attract creators from other ecosystems.
4. It featured a web3 social dapp like Farcaster, which is gaining popularity. It would be great to see initiatives making use of it.

Overall, I really like this idea. I hope my suggestions are helpful and get included in the proposal. Looking forward to seeing it develop!

The proposal is very innovative, thank you for presenting it. I noticed that the incentive mechanism, especially the non-transferable NFT incentive, is quite creative. However, I would like to ask how you plan to define and evaluate the “quality” of participation and ensure fairness.

Additionally, the proposal does not clearly specify the metrics for measuring success, such as audience growth targets or the extent of community engagement improvements resulting from the NFT incentives.

The idea of attracting Web2 gamers and hosts is excellent. While the proposal mentions this direction, it does not clearly outline how to specifically incentivize or connect with them. A more actionable plan is needed, such as specific promotional strategies tailored to this group.

Lastly, the budget allocation seems heavily weighted toward content creation and data analysis, while relatively less is allocated to promotion and marketing, which might limit the content’s reach to the target audience. Would you consider increasing the budget and applying for the necessary amount in one go to ensure sufficient resources for promotion?
