Nice feedback @jonto about potential $BASED partnership, I figured we should follow-up here.
Moonbase value proposition
Based Protocol’ Moonbase is DeFi Protocol designed for deep culture interaction with partner projects : they provide with memes, NFTs and full media support for partners during a full year.
Based Protocol was fair launched and keys are burned. Today the community is mainly composed of artists and techs, our values seems to be close to yours, I believe we should get closer.
Sushiswap, Snowswap, AMP, Gods Unchained… More than 6 projects have already taken the initiative and joined Moonbase, it is a great opportunity to develop $BADGER with shared values and vision.
Here are couple of links to understand what $BASED / $mbBASED is all about.
$BADGER is building products and infrastructure to bring Bitcoin to DeFi. It is a new, fair launched project driven by four veterans, built by d0rg.
We are looking to establish ethereum standard for wBTC farming and we aim to do it with style. With ongoing partnerships with the likes of Pickles, Meme or Keep, we are now reaching out to the $BASED community to join the effort and amplify $BADGER message in the most based ways.
How based is that ?
How does that sound ?
Supposing we find consensus and everyone is okay with it, I’ll push final proposal to Moonbase snapshot.page.
It’s clear that the BadgerDAO community has an excellent understanding of memes. I think the most exciting part for me would be collaborating with everyone here on composable Badger/BTC/BTC on ETH memes for an entire year and seeing what amazing art we can create together.
I think this would be the first community approved payment out of the treasury. My opinion would be to wait until our snapshot page is up with the new vote weightings (taking into account LP and staking positions) and we can put it up as one of the first substantial votes for the community.
btw, its looking like there will be a DIGG only sett that would create bDIGG which is an erc20 and could be used for this purpose if the community votes it in.
bDIGGS will definitely have value, they can be claimed for DIGG. whether or not a uniswap pool pops up with liquidity is another issue. but yes we could do it with BADGER too
To formalize proposal I worked on the following layout, hope that helps.
BIP XX
Launching Rover $BADGER Vault contract / Based Protocol Partnership
Category:
Community content incentives & social support
Scope:
Initiate yearly partnership with Based Protocol to gain community outreach, support & exposure as part of a growing DeFi ecosystem
Objectives:
Explain what Based protocol is as a content provider for its DeFi Echosystem.
Receive approval of $BADGER token allocation to be vested for Based community through Rover Vault Contract (yearly)
Status: Pending Submission
Overview
Moonbase is the original DeFi protocol empowering communities to generate compound revenue. It is a place where producers, artists and entrepreneurs capitalize on sheer creative force to reach new heights.
Rovers are deployed by $BASED partner-projects as an incentive for the based community to endorse them. These rovers catalyze growth, fostering alignment and collaboration within the ecosystem.
To incentivize the based community to support $BADGER & $DIGG throughout the next phases of Badger development, proposal allocates up to $BADGER 12,420 tokens for yearly support.
The goal is to favor community growth with cultural leverage, including :
Meme & NFT production
Community outreach
Skill sharing & Best Practices
social media support
Implementation
We can start low like launch Rover with $BADGER 6 969 and set target to unlock the rest, something like hitting a key social or financial metric.
Launching a Rover is just a matter of deploying a dedicated smart contract and sending funding.
Where do we go next
Vote and/or provide feedback in this discussion to help producing final PIB.
The more vote the better, if you support this initiative its a good time to show up.
Should Badger implement Based Protocol Partnership
I know honey badgers are well kwown for not caring which is why I’m not going to pitch anything to you. I’m just going to say I love the project and I will be using the word ‘badger’ more than I perhaps would if this project didn’t exist. ok, honey bros? nah I know you don’t care. see I almost didnt even capitalize that ‘i’ you just read. cause i really dont care (except low key bros, i do). i want yall to succeed.
