[SOLUTION] Please describe your proposed solution
Our proposed solution addresses the need for innovative ways to engage users and drive adoption in the Cardano ecosystem. We see the problem as the challenge of attracting and retaining users in a competitive landscape where user engagement is critical to the success of decentralized platforms.
Application interaction flow
Our approach revolves around building an app with a "tap to earn" feature that runs on the Telegram platform where there are up to 800M monthly active users as well as a leading crypto exchange channel, leveraging the Its vast users and messaging capabilities. This feature encourages user engagement by allowing them to earn rewards with a simple tap, thereby increasing engagement with our app, which provides more information about Cardano .
We chose this method for several reasons:
- User participation: By paying rewards after 2 hours, we hope to retain customers, thereby also creating a platform for them to know and learn more about Cardano.
- Accessibility: Leveraging Telegram as a platform allows us to reach a wide range of users who are already familiar with the application, reducing the barrier of downloading additional applications, making it much more convenient for users.
- Simple but engaging: The "tap to earn" feature introduces a new user interaction model on cardano, not only that, the referral feature to get more rewards will be extremely useful in increasing traffic user. Besides, we also designed a set of questions about cardano for users to answer and receive additional tokens. In short, the application helps attract users exponentially and increase users' knowledge about cardano - an important factor for cardano to grow even stronger.
Our project will attract various stakeholders in the Cardano community, including users and ecosystem partners. Users will benefit from the opportunity to earn rewards for their participation, ecosystem partners can leverage our platform to drive user engagement and adoption towards their services and dApps.
To demonstrate our impact, we will track key metrics such as user engagement, retention, and token distribution. Additionally, we will collect feedback from users and stakeholders to continuously improve our solution and ensure its effectiveness.
What makes our solution unique is that it focuses on encouraging user engagement through a seamless experience and getting them to learn about Cardano while answering questions. By leveraging the power of Telegram and integrating innovative features like "tap to earn", we aim to drive widespread adoption within the Cardano ecosystem, ultimately contributing to the growth and its success.
[IMPACT] Please define the positive impact your project will have on the wider Cardano community
Our project aims to bring a significant positive impact to the wider Cardano community through increased user engagement, adoption and education. Here's how we plan to measure and share this activity:
Positive impact:
- Increased engagement: Our "cham monetization" feature encourages users to actively participate in the Cardano ecosystem, leading to increased engagement with Cardano-related content and services.
- Huge user can be reached: By leveraging Telegram's users and the referral feature to earn additional tokens, our app has great power to reach existing Telegram users as well as new users.
- Educational value: Through interactive features such as questions related to Cardano, advertising other Cardano applications, users will increase their understanding of the Cardano ecosystem, contributing to building a more knowledgeable and informed community.
Action:
- User engagement metrics: We will track amounts of data such as user activity date, version, and compatibility rate with our app to gauge total user engagement.
- Adoption Rate: Tracking the number of new users joining our ecosystem's Cardano platform information platform will provide insights into the adoption rate of adoption and the effective results of foundation in the work of attracting users.
- Educational progress: Feedback from users on their knowledge and understanding of Cardano, as well as their engagement with educational features, will help measure the educational impact of the platform.
Share the output:
- Community engagement: We will actively engage with the Cardano community through social media, forums, and community channels to share updates, insights, and opportunities from our project.
- Documentation and reports: Regularly published documents and reports detailing key metrics, user feedback responses, and project bedrooms will be shared with the Cardano community and stakeholders mandarin.
- Partnerships and Community: We will seek partnerships and collaborations with other projects and organizations in the Cardano ecosystem to further enhance the operations of our platform and create decentralized reasonable coordination for the common good.
By demonstrating increased user engagement, adoption and education in the Cardano community, our project will bring useful value to the ecosystem. Through the work of measuring platinum and proactively sharing outputs, we aim to provide continued streamlining, innovation, and growth in the Cardano community.
