[DCP-10] Retroactive NFT Membership for existing PRO users

Co-Authored by: DappRadar (@vandynathan and @dragos)

Summary:

As we transition to PRO 2.0, it is important to reward early PRO members who utilized and helped shape the product. This reward will be an non-transferrable NFT that will continue to provide members with PRO features even when the requirement to activate PRO changes. The proposal suggests the length that the current PRO members should receive continued PRO features and the name of the NFT reward too.

Motivation:

DappRadar is a product that thrives on user engagement and community building. By providing an NFT for existing PRO users, DappRadar hopes to strengthen its community by rewarding their loyalty and encourage more users to become PRO. The proposal also aims to provide existing PRO users with a unique and exclusive experience, creating a sense of ownership and belonging within the community.

Abstract:

As outlined in the Roadmap, as we transition to DappRadar 2.0, we will also implement PRO 2.0 with new additional features for PRO members and a change in the activation requirements. The non-transferrable NFT called the “PRO OG NFT” will serve as an incentive for existing PRO users who meet specific criteria encouraging them to remain part of DappRadar community and will allow them to enjoy the new incoming features for a select period of days.

A Snapshot of current PRO Members was completed on 12.04.23, and it included 5,686 accounts. The NFTs will be available to these specific accounts and distributed through the Galxe platform. By minting these NFTs, these accounts will gain access to all new and old PRO features. This benefit will last for a specific duration after PRO 2.0 is launched. The relevant information will soon be shared on our relevant social media channels. This proposal will suggest:

  • the duration of the NFT reward
  • the name of the NFT

The options for the duration of PRO will include:

  1. Offer the NFTs and give 1 month of PRO
  2. Offer the NFTs and give 2 months of PRO
  3. Offer the NFTs and give 3 months of PRO
  4. Do not give any NFTs

The options for the name of the NFT include:

  1. PRO OG
  2. PRO Early Adopter
  3. PRO Explorer
  4. PRO BFF
  5. PRO Early Birds

Please discuss the suggestions in the comments below.

Benefits:

  • Rewards early PRO members who utilized and helped shape the product.
  • Strengthens the DappRadar community by rewarding loyalty and encouraging more users to become PRO.
  • Provides existing PRO users with a unique and exclusive experience, creating a sense of ownership and belonging within the community.

Costs:

  • Only current PRO users who meet specific criteria will be eligible to receive the non-transferrable “PRO OG NFT”, which excludes those who are not PRO or do not meet the requirements.
  • The proposal may require additional development and resources to create and distribute the NFT, which could potentially delay other features or initiatives.

Few questions about the nft’s i feel if you cant trade them 3 months is too short of a time unless the nfts are cheap. (i was thinking life time pro) but i don’t know what future holds for pro so i cant be sure that is a solid suggestion.

On top of that what’s to stop people from sending there nft to another wallet? and would that then re-do the time length of the pro feature? does the nft have to be activated? ect.

Good questions, and a good point.

As Snapshot was taken today and the NFTs will be free to mint for the accounts that are currently PRO Members. Even gas fees will also be covered by the DappRadar team.

It’s important to note that the NFTs will actually be non-transferable. Since they won’t be able to be exchanged and traded, only these individual accounts would be able to receive the benefits of the new PRO features. Once PRO 2.0 is released, NFT holders will receive the benefits for the duration that the community decides.

The NFTs are non-transferrable and bound to your wallet address (you cannot send them to another wallet). You cannot sell them and this is the the goal of these NFTs. Given the fact that there were plenty of discussions in the forum/discord and also internally about the value of PRO and the cost for getting PRO being too low, we’re working on an updated PRO membership structure on which we’ll share more details in the upcoming days.

The way users can get access to PRO is going to change, but we want to thank all the current PRO members for being here early and supporting us and using the DappRadar PRO access to enrich their experience.

These NFTs are going to remain in your wallet as a badge of recognition and to commemorate this event. But, at the same time, if you have this NFT, you’ll be able to still have PRO access to the platform and Discord for the period of time that will be voted in this proposal.

Giving life time access to PRO for more than 5,000 users is counterproductive and not helping the DAO or the business in any way, long term. If users will find DappRadar PRO useful, they will have to take the necessary steps to activate the PRO membership (we will share more details in the upcoming days, as mentioned above).

PRO membership will keep evolving and will keep offering users access to more features and benefits across the DappRadar ecosystem.

I think that the average would be good. one or two months maximum, this will be enough to evaluate pro 2 and decide whether to renew the subscription. the long term of the NFT will not have a positive impact on development. but, if this is an encouragement, then it would be possible to make a transferable nft and in honor of the launch of the pp to hold a lottery with prizes, even if they are small.
