  1. Add technical details and/or links to source documentation

Full specifications of the protocol are documented on the Proof of Good Whitepaper.

Our codebase is hosted on GitHub and open-source.

  1. Include any other relevant details on how this proposal will be accomplished

We have a passionate DAO community already committing time to develop the platform and grow the community. Our focus is on scaling the organization and our reach by staffing full-time developers, designers, community managers, and NGO operations managers. This Core Team is essential to creating structure, strategy, and operational scalability; enabling exponential growth of the community and project contributors.

Our network of talent and trusted vendors spans the globe and across many verticals. Our mission and purpose attracts talent and we have zero issues recruiting. Our ability to scale is only limited by our access to initial capital.

Once we have recruited our DAO Core Team, our focus will be on constant delivery of product, operational excellence, and authentic community building. We believe that we can help accelerate network effects in web3 through our ecosystem partnerships by maximizing compatibility, composability, and utility of our token assets and economies.

The key to driving adoption usage of the Proof of Good Protocol will also be by building a complete high-quality vertical stack of engagement, namely the web3 game experience. Our previous experience in AAA game development will allow us to deliver on a model of an engaging and sustainable experience that other web3 projects can easily model after and adopt.

To create sustainability, we have designed the business model to have robust revenue sources, including: Membership NFT sales, Secondary sale royalties, In-Game item sales, Mystery Box sales, Governance participation fees, and sponsorships.

Next Steps? If this proposal is accepted, what are the immediate action items?

  1. Hire DAO Core Team Staff: Engineers, Designers, Community Managers, Marketing Managers.
  2. Deliver the PoG Protocol and accelerate onboarding of PoG Oracles.
  3. Onboard marketing agency to grow the community and DAO and maximize success of the GOOD token launch.
  4. Onboard game development studio to begin development of PoG World.

Really hope this proves to be a success. Crypto and NFTs have, for too long, been labelled as scams for soulless and greedy tech bros. Here is a chance to do good and change lives, change perceptions and even make some money.

Proposal is great and complete. It’s a great way of integrating web3 to doing social good to the world. This can also help propel the adoption of crypto in general. This kind of thing should be the way we are using dao’s and blockchain technology. Give this proposal a medal. I really hope this get’s approved.

Onboarding organizations onto the blockchain and making it possible for them to receive donations in digital currency is huge. Going that step further and building a protocol around making donations and volunteering mutually beneficial will provide sustainability to this system that doesn’t currently exist - many could earn income through volunteering now.

The potential future applications of this protocol for profitability and impact are impressive as well - for instance, people could earn on the protocol for buying from organizations that adhere to more sustainable/ ethical standards of production (kind of like ESG scores, and other scores that exists for this). If the protocol swayed consumer power, it would become highly desirable for organizations then to onboard.

Really like what these guys are doing! There aren’t many people these days pursuing altruism, especially in such a cool and fun way. Would love to see this get passed as it aligns very well with BitDAO’s ethos. Excited about their future :).
