Donation & Reward Tracking

Develop a metadata donation reward program, fund-tracing and accountability framework

WADA: Skilled team of Cardano Community practitioners and entrepreneurs, located in hubs across West Africa and the diaspora

Purpose of Proposal/ Addressing the Challenge Question

Following WADA's (West Africa Decentralized Alliance) highly successful fundraiser to start our Fund3 activities, we decided to go a step further in how we show our gratitude to the community. Instead of only putting metadata information supplied by donors on the blockchain, we decided to use this as a collaboration opportunity to give hands on training to WADA devs on the use of metadata to solve real life problems. 

Our aim is to build and expand expertise in

• Cardano metadata solutions build and integration,
• Native token minting,
• Developer onboarding and training
• Curriculum development
• Technical knowledge in stakepool operation

Metrics

• Number of current and future WADA donors inspired by interaction this project and who commits to a deeper level of engagement within WADA
• Community feedback and interaction
• Follow-up Catalyst proposals.
• Number of WADA devs able to independently use metadata to design solutions

Success Indicators

• 1-3 months: Explore metadata space, pull project team together.
• 4-6 months: WADA and Collaborator devs enrolled in IOG metadata technical support program to scale up additional solutions using metadata.
• 6-12 months: Metadata curriculum and fund-tracing framework developed with training and solutions design expansion underway. High WADA Foundation donor engagement, interaction and trust. (Separate subsequent funding request)
