Detailed Plan
Purpose of Proposal/ Addressing the Challenge Question
Following WADA's (West Africa Decentralized Alliance) highly successful fundraiser to start our Fund3 activities, we decided to go a step further in how we show our gratitude to the community. Instead of only putting metadata information supplied by donors on the blockchain, we decided to use this as a collaboration opportunity to give hands on training to WADA devs on the use of metadata to solve real life problems.
Our aim is to build and expand expertise in
- Cardano metadata solutions build and integration,
- Native token minting,
- Developer onboarding and training
- Curriculum development
- Technical knowledge in stakepool operation
Metrics
- Number of current and future WADA donors inspired by interaction this project and who commits to a deeper level of engagement within WADA
- Community feedback and interaction
- Follow-up Catalyst proposals.
- Number of WADA devs able to independently use metadata to design solutions
Success Indicators
- <u>1-3 months</u>: Explore metadata space, pull project team together.
- <u>4-6 months</u>: WADA and Collaborator devs enrolled in IOG metadata technical support program to scale up additional solutions using metadata.
- <u>6-12 months</u>: Metadata curriculum and fund-tracing framework developed with training and solutions design expansion underway. High WADA Foundation donor engagement, interaction and trust. (Separate subsequent funding request)
