[IMPACT] Please describe your proposed solution.

Our proposed feature set for rewards mechanisms will include action based and automated triggering of token metadata updates and rewards distribution.

This will form a complete or bespoke package we can offer projects, businesses and more, to create an immersive and rewarding experience to token holders/members/attendees

This can be many things, but often revolve around token metadata updates for various actions or triggers

We will build out 3 main features for this feature set:

• automated token metadata updates
• action based rewards mechanisms
• randomised rewards mechanisms

We will make automated and withdrawal based rewards distributions to offer for different use cases

Example use cases include scavenger hunts & raffles

[IMPACT] How does your proposed solution address the challenge and what benefits will this bring to the Cardano ecosystem?

We are building a tool to offer further use case to any project or team on Cardano. It will be able to integrate into their products or services easily, allowing them to seamlessly distribute rewards in the form of project tokens, memberships and more.

[IMPACT] How do you intend to measure the success of your project?

The number of projects using our solution to reward community members for their own purposes such as calls, community events, meet ups and more

KPIs

• Number of projects using our solution

• Number of events using our solution

• Number of successfully distributed rewards

• Number of wallets sent rewards

• Number of successful utilizations of the three targeted features

  [IMPACT] Please describe your plans to share the outputs and results of your project?

We will share examples and demos of specific features and mechanisms within the solution, such as:

• Minting and token updating

• Distribution mechanisms

• Reports of tests and trials conducted with projects (with feedback)

[CAPABILITY/ FEASIBILITY] What are the main goals for the project and how will you validate if your approach is feasible?

We already have confirmed tests with projects at some of cardanos biggest events such as RareEvo,

We aim to run more tests at all of the other major events this year, with a larger scale deployment next year.

We plan to test our automated rewards mechanisms at all of these events at different levels, so the greater cardano community can see the results of the work we are doing and how it can benefit both projects and community members.

[RESOURCES & VALUE FOR MONEY] How does the cost of the project represent value for money for the Cardano ecosystem?

building this solution will be relatively complex, handling verification and tracking changes. By us building and open-sourcing the main functionalities it will enable other projects to implement the tools in their own projects, without the dev costs and time needed to build it from scratch. This will contribute to a more feature-rich ecosystem with a better UX for the average holder and more interesting projects developing in the space.
