Detailed Plan
Gather sightings of scams, frauds, FUDs, fake news, disinformation, cyber attacks, etc.
Identify patterns and learn about them.
Present them on the website in a succinct and easy-to-understand way using simple English. A single page should try to name or at least categorize the type of scam/disinformation, it must show a single most representative example caught in the wild, its intent must be uncovered and documented on the page, etc.
The homepage of the website would list the most dangerous types scams/disinformation. Special care will be taken for new & currently popular ongoing scams/fake news where it is of utmost importance that we react as soon as possible in order to quell the scam/fake news and stop it spreading by arming the population with information.
Website/community platform funding:
- Development: 240 hours (est. 30hrs/week in 2 months) * $50 = $12.000
- Reliable/reduntant cloud hosting setup costs (installation, configuration): $1.200
- Total costs: $12.000 + $1.200 = $13.200
Definition of success
After 3 months: the platform will be at the end of development
After 6 months: the platform will be successfully launched and the first communities will form around identifying & describing scams/FUDs
After 12 months: the platform will be used actively internationally and its userbase will be growing; that means not only the contents curators but the end-users as well.
Impact on key metrics
These two metrics will be impacted directly:
- Repository of old/new scams, scam attempts, fake debunked theories and falsehoods can be easily checked and accessed
- Community-managed websites expand to include historical and current content about different types of Cardano scams, bad-faith players, untruths and FUD spreading
These two metrics will be impacted indirectly:
- New sources and repositories of information are developed containing timelines for Cardano project, FAQs and criticisms of Cardano as well as answers to criticisms.
- Community-managed websites expand to include more beginner-friendly content about Cardano Treasury.
The platform will bring truth (through proof) and transparency (through references) to the Cardano universe.
