AIP-466: Proposal To Close Non-Essential Working Groups

PROPOSAL DESCRIPTION

This proposal suggests the following:

  1. Dissolve the Governance Working Group: AIP-239: Working Group Guidelines & The Governance Working Group Charter.
  2. Dissolve the Marketing & Communications Working Group: AIP-246: Working Group Charter - Marketing & Communications.
  3. Dissolve the Metaverse Working Group: AIP-245: Working Group Charter - Metaverse.
  4. Dissolve the Web3 Development Working Group: AIP-376: Working Group Charter - Web3 Development.

The DAO created these working groups, and the DAO is well within its actions, activities, and purview to close them as per AIP-239: Working Group Guidelines & The Governance Working Group Charter.

image

BENEFIT TO APECOIN ECOSYSTEM

Collectively, all four working groups are costing or will cost the DAO almost $3M per year.

To date, the new Working Groups have been largely ineffective in their mandate.

As per the Q1/24 financial reports which we all knew would be bad (and we have yet to see Q2 & Q3), it is clear that the treasury is fast running out of disposable funds. Ape Foundation Transparency Report - 2024 - Q1. We the DAO need to stop the financial bleeding and to take necessary steps to preserve the treasury and reposition it for prosperity.

This proposal has the following vital benefits:

  1. The DAO immediately saves money.
  2. The DAO can re-purpose LESS funds to hire/contract experienced third-parties who have a lot more experience in the specific areas previously outlined in this WG charter.
  3. The DAO no longer has to deal with the distractions, funding, and down time associated with elections as well as the budget proposals and voting for these working groups.
  4. The Ape Foundation can focus on specific mandates which are beneficial to the smooth operation of the DAO.
  5. The Ape Foundation can hire and contract third-party teams//providers on an as-needed basis. This also provides the flexibility of being able to switch teams/providers if they fail to perform as expected or if they don’t perform as per their mandated KPIs, OKRs or if they don’t adhere to strict transparency and accountability guidelines.

OVERALL COST

Total amount requested from the ApeCoin Ecosystem Fund = $0

Requests of the APE Foundation:

  • Dissolve the aforementioned working groups.
  • Pay in full, to affected stewards, any/all amounts that are in arrears.
  • Wind-down of the operations of any/all activities and entities.
  • Prevent the DAO from creating any new DAO funded working groups [under the existing charters].
  • Additionally, at its discretion, the Ape Foundation would put up RFPs for activities and work which were previously required to be performed by the aforementioned working group. As per the RFP, hire third-party teams which would be directed to handle all activities previously performed by this WG.
  • Manage and co-ordinate the consulting and hiring of any third-parties selected by the RFP to perform the required roles with specific KPIs and OKRs which are to be shared with the DAO community.
  • As needed, display a new Discourse category called “Job Description” related to either a work for hire request or an RFP so that the DAO community can have the opportunity to participate in such hiring opportunities.

AIP-524: ApeLance on ApeChain : WEB 3.0 Bridge (Resubmission)

PROPOSAL DESCRIPTION

ApeLance is set to transform the freelance landscape by offering a secure, transparent, and efficient platform powered by ApeChain. By ensuring instant payments, confidentiality, and a robust verification system, ApeLance provides a reliable and innovative solution for freelancers and clients worldwide.

Problem: All platforms use third-party payment systems. Traditional freelance platforms charge high fees (up to 40%) and delay payments, which can be a big problem for freelancers. If these payment systems are not available in a particular country, freelancers can face difficulties, including the risk of not receiving their payments. Even when these systems do work, they often charge very high fees. In Asian regions, many freelancers do gig work on the side, and their earnings are typically low. For example, if I complete a $50 job and have to pay a $10 fee, it feels unfair to me.

image

The Solution: ApeLance Payments in ApeCoin are instant and transparent, significantly reducing the risk of non-payment or delayed payment. Smart contracts hold funds in escrow and release them upon the completion of predefined milestones, ensuring that both parties fulfill their obligations.Payment delays can disrupt the cash flow for freelancers.

Bidding System

Sometimes, employers may not know how to manage their projects or who to hire. In such cases, they can simply post their project on Apelance. People who have the skills and knowledge to complete the job can then submit their own bids, including the price and the time needed to finish the work. This is a unique feature not found on any other freelance platform. Additionally, by setting a budget, clients can quickly find the right person for the job from a wide range of options.

image

image

Most lowes fee platform of this industry! and more…

0.5% marketplace fee will be charged if paying and receiving payments using ApeCoin. 1% fee will be charged if payment is made in other coins.

  • New User Acquisition: By targeting freelancers and clients globally, ApeLance will attract new users to the ApeCoin ecosystem, including those who have not previously engaged with crypto. ApeLance will encourage active participation from the ApeCoin community, including developers, designers, marketers, and other freelancers, fostering a vibrant and collaborative environment. The platform will help businesses find skilled freelancers quickly and efficiently, driving economic activity within the ApeCoin ecosystem.

  • NFT Verification: The NFT verification feature will incentivize NFT holders to use and hold ApeCoin, increasing engagement within the ApeCoin ecosystem.

  • Long-Term Viability: The decentralized and transparent nature of ApeLance ensures its sustainability without reliance on a central authority, aligning with the principles of decentralization and self-sovereignty central to the ApeCoin community.

image

The 0.1% of the market we are targeting amounts to $500 million, representing the total sales between employers and employees. We will generate revenue by taking a commission from these transactions.

Challenges in Asia The reason for focusing on Asian countries is that they are often ranked low in the freelance market because of payment issues. As I mentioned earlier, the payment systems either don’t work, or banks don’t support them. The few systems that do work charge high fees. Even though we all live on the same planet, the opportunities are different. Just think about it—there isn’t even a single McDonald’s or Starbucks in our country. That’s why I want to solve at least one problem that Asians face.

9b80b7ed170f8c2e365da298bea27e2c9da12fac.jpeg

Our goal is to create a blockchain-based P2P freelance platform to capture 0.1% of this rapidly growing market. Unpredictable events such as the COVID-19 pandemic and subsequent isolation have demonstrated that people’s lives are not fixed. The next generation dreams of working on diverse projects from anywhere in the world rather than settling in one place.

BENEFIT TO APECOIN ECOSYSTEM

image

image

We plan to spend 20% of commissions rewarding our most active users and 10% to support initiatives of ApeCoin DAO. Our goal for the next five years is to attract 0.1% of the market, which is estimated $2.5 million. The 20% of commissions allocated for rewarding our most active users will be distributed based on a point system. Points will be awarded for activities such as completing projects, receiving high ratings, and contributing to community discussions. These points can be redeemed for ApeCoin or used to access premium features. The 10% allocated to support ApeCoin DAO initiatives will be used to fund projects and events that align with the DAO’s goals, such as educational programs, community meetups, and development grants. Detailed criteria and application processes for these funds will be developed in collaboration with the DAO. Additionally, users will receive a Job NFT Badge, and job ads and information for NFT-certified users within the Yuga Labs ecosystem will appear at the top of listings. Similarly, Mocaverse NFTs will also rank high.

image

Regarding the use of ApeCoin trademarks, we do not expect to maintain full ownership rights to the content or IP created as a result of the approval of our proposal. We anticipate that any content produced will be owned by the ApeCoin DAO, aligning with the principles of decentralization and community ownership.

OVERALL COST

Total amount requested from the ApeCoin Ecosystem Fund = $147,000

Two tranches of funding have been requested: Upon approval, the initial phase would require $67,000 to cover platform development and launch expenses. The second tranche, at the start of Milestone 3, would require $80,000 for marketing, monitoring, maintenance, and other miscellaneous costs.

Technical Development:

  1. Smart Contract Development: $3,000 Developing the smart contracts that will power the decentralized freelance marketplace, ensuring security and functionality.
  2. Integration with ApeChain: $4,000 Integrating the platform with the ApeChain blockchain, including wallet integration and transaction processing.
  3. Security Audits: $20,000 Conducting comprehensive security audits to identify and fix vulnerabilities in the smart contracts and platform.
  4. Blockchain Node Setup and Maintenance: $10,000 Setting up and maintaining the necessary blockchain nodes to support the platform’s operations.

User Interface Design: 5. UX/UI Design: $5,000 Designing the user interface for the platform, focusing on user experience and ease of use. 6. Front-End Development: $10,000 Developing the front-end of the platform, including responsive design for different devices. 7. Testing and Iteration: $5,000 Conducting user testing and iterating on the design based on feedback to ensure a seamless user experience.

Deployment and Launch: 8. Deployment Costs: $10,000 Deploying the platform on the ApeChain mainnet, including final testing and optimization. 9. Launch Marketing: $50,000 Marketing activities to promote the platform launch, including social media campaigns, influencer partnerships, and press releases.

Monitoring and Maintenance (1 year): 10. Ongoing Maintenance: $10,000 Continuous monitoring and maintenance of the platform to ensure stability, performance, and security. This includes server costs, bug fixes, and updates. Miscellaneous Expenses: 11.

AIP-498: DashBO UGC Platform : Democratizing Content Creation

Disclaimer: Due to the recent approval of AIP-436, all AIPs requesting an allocation denominated over US$250,000 will require a super majority approval of 69% of the total number of votes cast. The Foundation has already begun coordinating to develop our new Snapshot strategy to automate these new decision making guidelines, however, we will ensure compliance with this guideline manually in the interim.

This AIP falls above that threshold and will require 69% of votes to be approved.

PROPOSAL DESCRIPTION

image Welcome to DashBO, your gateway to boundless creativity and empowerment in the digital realm. Our platform is more than just a website; it’s a revolutionary space where individuals of all skill levels can unleash their imagination and bring their visions to life. With DashBO, content creation is no longer reserved for the select few – it’s now accessible to everyone.

DashBO is a User-Generated Content (UGC) platform, which means our platform thrives on the creativity and contributions of its members. UGC platforms empower users to share their unique ideas and creations, and foster innovation . By harnessing the power of UGC, DashBO enables a diverse range of content that reflects the rich creativity of its users, providing endless inspiration and opportunities for growth.

Whether you’re a seasoned artist or a beginner looking to explore your creative side, DashBO provides intuitive tools and resources to help you craft captivating 3D animations or poses with ease. But that’s not all. DashBO goes beyond traditional content creation by offering users the ability to transform their creations into dynamic face filters, AR experiences, and avatars for games or the metaverse. With our emphasis on democratizing content creation and leveraging users’ NFT profile pictures, DashBO is not just a platform – it’s a community where imagination knows no bounds.

Our platform DashBO will be built on ApeChain. ApeChain’s robust infrastructure ensures fast transaction times, low fees, and enhanced security, making it the ideal foundation for a cutting-edge content creation platform. This technology enables seamless integration and interaction within the ApeCoin ecosystem, allowing for greater interoperability and expanding the possibilities for creators.

A pre-release, limited functionality beta version of DashBO will be deployed in partnership with Yuga Labs via BAYC. com exclusively to all BAYC and MAYC holders via the BAYC. com Profile system. Once the full platform is launched, all BAYC and MAYC holders – as well as Meebits – will have immediate access to the full platform and functionalities. Our platform will also support other Yuga assets like Kodas and MoonBirds upon their releases. Other collections such as CloneX and AKCB that offer 3D models to their communities are supported, and for those that don’t as of yet – such as Mocaverse, 0n1 Force, or Azuki and many others – we have prepared the base model for the generation of the full range of 3D models using our system when onboarded. DashBO will help onboard these communities to the ApeCoin ecosystem and ApeChain.

YUGA SUPPORT:

In addition to contracting Inceptive Studios to create a complete collection of unofficial, DashBO-ready models for MAYC, and giving us access to the full collection of official BAYC models for the system, Yuga Labs will be providing Meebits, Kodas, and MoonBirds 3D assets as they become available for inclusion.

5. REALSPACE AR: DashBO empowers users to bring their creations into the real world through Augmented Reality (AR).

6. TUTORIALS: DashBO offers a comprehensive array of informative and entertaining tutorials designed to help users maximize their experience on the platform. These tutorials provide step-by-step guidance on how to utilize DashBO’s extensive suite of tools, ensuring users can fully harness their creative potential. In addition to DashBO-specific tutorials, there will be a curated selection of tutorials covering other popular 3D software and tools.

By following these tutorials, users will not only enhance their technical skills in creating content with their 3D avatars but also spark their creativity, enabling them to produce more compelling and imaginative content.

7. LEADERBOARD: To foster a vibrant and engaged community, DashBO will feature a community leaderboard that incentivizes users to share their creative content on social media. As a DashBO user, you can earn DashBO credits when other users join using a referral link.

image

By incorporating this gamified approach, DashBO aims to boost user participation, enhance the visibility of user-generated content, and promote the wider use of ApeCoin within the community. This system not only rewards users for their creativity but also helps to spread awareness and drive traffic to the ApeCoin ecosystem through social media engagement.

7. INTEROPERABLE FILES: In the ever-evolving landscape of digital creation, different metaverse platforms, games, tools, and software support 3D files in various formats, each with its own specifications. This diversity often creates a barrier for creators who want to ensure their content is compatible across multiple platforms. DashBO addresses this challenge by handling all necessary conversions, rigging, and texturing, making avatars and other 3D content seamlessly usable across different metaverse platforms, games, tools, and software. By automating these technical processes, DashBO removes the complexity and ensures that users can focus on their creativity without worrying about technical compatibility issues. As new platforms and technologies emerge, DashBO will continually update and expand its capabilities to support an even wider range of formats and specifications, ensuring that our users’ creations are future-proof.

APECHAIN INTEGRATION: Integrating DashBO with ApeChain is crucial for enhancing user experience. Users will have the ability to use ApeCoin to purchase DashBO credits, our off-chain currency. This integration aims to facilitate a seamless experience within DashBO, enabling users to unlock new content for their avatars more efficiently.

TOKEN AUTHENTICATION: Token Gating in DashBO plays a crucial role in restricting access to certain parts of the platform exclusively to NFT holders, thereby safeguarding intellectual property from unauthorized use. DashBO accommodates delegate wallets such as Warm and Delegate Cash, ensuring a smooth and secure user experience. Moreover, DashBO seamlessly integrates with ParaSpace and BendDAO, both leveraging Delegate Cash, ensuring compatibility and operational efficiency.

BUSINESS MODEL: DashBO’s business model is designed to give Yuga 3D avatar holders (starting with BAYC, MAYC and Meebits) value at both free and premium levels, providing free content creation tools as well as additional premium tools through the purchase of DashBO credit bundles. By using ApeCoin for transactions, DashBO integrates seamlessly with the broader Ape ecosystem, adding utility and value for ApeCoin holders. Until the full collections become available, DashBO will also provides access to demo avatars from popular Yuga collections such as Bored Ape Kennel Club (BAKC), Kodas, MoonBirds, and 10KTF Gucci Grail. Holders of these projects can utilize these demo avatars to create unique content, enhancing their creative possibilities. To unlock premium content and advanced tools, users can purchase DashBO credits, which are exclusively available for purchase using ApeCoin.

The credits come in three bundles, each with specific expiry durations:

image

image

DashBO will implement a revenue share model with the ApeCoin DAO. Ten percent (10%) of the gross revenue from sales will go to the ApeCoin DAO treasury , supporting the broader ApeCoin ecosystem and contributing to its growth and sustainability. Revenue distribution is planned to be done quarterly. This schedule allows for consistent financial reporting and ensures that the DAO regularly benefits from the platform’s success.

Additionally, we plan to introduce regular updates and new features, keeping the platform dynamic and continually improving the user experience. Whether you’re using free features or exploring premium content. We intend to keep the cost of premium content between 4-6 credits. This pricing strategy ensures affordability while maintaining the quality and accessibility of premium features on the platform.

We do NOT retain any ownership rights over content created using IP that is owned by the holders. Our platform is designed to respect and protect the intellectual property of all users.

PARTNERSHIPS:

  • Yuga Labs:
    • MAYC Models: Inceptive has been contracted by Yuga Labs to create a complete collection of “unofficial” models for MAYC (DashBO-ready).

    • BAYC .com: Inceptive has partnered with Yuga Labs to create BAYC holders pre-release beta access to DashBo UGC platform .](BAYC. com)

BENEFIT TO APECOIN ECOSYSTEM

Integrating DashBO with ApeCoin will significantly promote the usage of ApeCoin, encouraging users to engage more actively with the ApeCoin ecosystem. This integration will facilitate various transactions, including the purchase of premium content, creation tools and unique assets. By increasing the utility and circulation of ApeCoin, DashBO will contribute to generating additional revenue for the ApeCoin DAO, thereby strengthening the overall ecosystem and enhancing its sustainability. DashBO will implement a Ten percent (10%) revenue share model with the DAO thus supporting the broader ApeCoin ecosystem and contributing to its growth and sustainability.

Moreover, DashBO’s support of other Non Yuga projects like Mocaverse, Azuki, Pudgy Penguins, Degods, and many others will introduce more users to the ApeCoin and ApeChain ecosystems once those projects are onboarded. This expansion of users and projects within the ecosystem will further enhance the value and utility of ApeCoin, fostering a vibrant and thriving community of creators and users. Additionally, DashBO will be built on ApeChain, which means more communities will be onboarded to the ApeCoin and ApeChain ecosystems. This integration will add more demand for ApeCoin as these communities utilize the token for various transactions and interactions within the ecosystem. Additionally, the integration with ApeChain will enable seamless interoperability with other projects and tokens within the ApeCoin ecosystem, further enhancing its utility and value proposition.
