[IMPACT]
Most traditional mom and pop shops are non-technical. We will have a very easy onboarding on the app so our users can find their businesses in our app directory.
Users on the hand get their rewards by either visiting/purchasing from a business partner or engaging in social media promotions.
The token will have several use cases:
- staking -users will earn rewards by staking
- purchase promotions -business partners can use token to buy more social media promotion
- purchase goods - eventually can be used for payment
- purchase data -use as payment for buying/selling of data
We are more than just a peer to peer transaction. We are going to promote blockchain for mass adoption.
Clarity has a worldwide use case that people can integrate in their daily lives. Imagine yelp but with rewards.
We have minted our Cardano Native token $CLAN to help fund the project.
We will be promoting Cardano by increasing Cardano Wallet users and holders.
We will also be supporting the Cardano ecosystem by partnering and collaborating with other Cardano projects.
We have partnered with MLabs for tech development and DripDropz for our token distribution.
The main challenge is funding. We are a bootstrapped company and we can only go as far as our funds. But we will find ways and we will get this done.
One challenge I can also see is if a country decides to ban cryptocurrency or a regulation limits us from functioning.
However, the beauty of blockchain is that, it is a currency that can be used anywhere in the world. So we can always focus on countries that are open.
[FEASIBILITY]
Clanity is a bootstrapped company and self-funded since the beginning. But since we launched, we have been progressing slowly but surely.
April 1 was when we decided to launch. From then, we have formed a team of 4 core team members, 3 advisors, plus 1 currently onboarding to join the team.
We have incorporated the company in Seychelles.
Created a referral program giving away free $CLAN tokens every signup and referral. You can visit it at app.clanity.com.
We are launching our KYC for the token sale to help fund the project since we have used up our savings for the project.
We have created and actively selling NFTs that come with utility.
Currently, we are building our MVP and we are hoping to finish it in a month to test and prove the concept. There has been a delay due to our dev being in Ukraine. Albeit safe, his area can be unstable sometimes. We hope and pray this war ends soon.
Also, we were able to partner with MLABS for tech dev support, DripDropz for the token sake and rewards distribution and payment gateway to accept buying $CLAN with Visa and Mastercard to scale adoption.
Lastly, we were accepted in the Alpha Startup Program by Collision Conference in Toronto this June. They are one of the largest tech conferences in North America and we are very excited to promote Clanity.
This is where the money is going..
We need to complete the MVP.
-MVP development/completion -$5,000
We never had the budget to aggressively market but with $5k we can get more outreach and exposure.
-Marketing, Articles, PR, Social Media - $5,000
We want $CLAN to be easily accessible to everyone who visits the website. This partnership will also allow $CLAN to be available in other exchanges using the same platform. Thus increasing awareness of Cardano projects in the space.
-Balance of Payment Gateway for fiat-crypto is $15,000 (Total is 40,000 Euros that we partially paid.)

[AUDITABILITY]
We will measure this by the number of users and business partners we can onboard on the app.
We have a marketing strategy that will entice people to signup through reimbursements, promotions and free tokens or NFTs.
Success of the project will be seeing this in every store, in every country all over the world and turning it over to DAO so it can run on its own. We will keep on going to achieve this.
This is a new proposal of a previously submitted Fund6 proposal. Unfortunately, our project was unfunded. I believe, we have made huge progress from the last proposal.
