Thanks -

I want to try using Colony.io as a crowdfunding mechanism as well.

They have a really interesting leveling mechanism, like do x get a reward [nft / pdf / book / print]

They also have transparent crowdfunding, so people can join and lock up ETH, and then everyone can see who contributed what, and how much is there -- which I think will make it possible to do a sort of Target Goal thing.

I'm not sure exactly what to focus on.

There are actually a handful of things I'd like to try out for the treasure hunt -- some of which I'm hoping to ingratiate myself to various communities.

Memefactory, I know for example, they just bought this land on Cryptovoxels -- and by 'they' I mean the community director Brady Mckenna, bought some land so he could showcase artwork for a couple of people. Rekt and myself, as far as I'm aware.

Ought to be a way to help fund that gallery setup so there's a utility for Memefactory's engagement. They don't even accept fees right now, because they are waiting for someone to come along and stake DNT and intitate a vote to make that happen. A bit idealistic, but a cool project, and a cool person to talk to.

The other galleries, some of those have DAOs.

There is also a lack of interconnectivity that I'm aware of in the correlation between the Marketing DAO and some of the other artist DAOs. Ought to be more bandwidth there.

Sparrow was really kind, and I think they've got some kind of DAO project they are associated with.

I want to see how much money I can raise if I am targeting a majority of it toward these different parts of the ecosystem.

Some artist, did a cool pro social crowdfunded artist fund I believe on Superrare -- looked like a person who was into basquiat glitch gifs.

There are a lot of worthy causes that collectors ought to be putting money into - including my future art projects. I'd guess that generosity will lead to connections, and reciprocity, and funding for worthy causes, and such.

Specifically, I'm thinking a lot of different artist DAOs that are sort of leading at the edges of this project, and maybe even some other small things, like talking to certain people that I think are interesting, or joining different projects, or onboarding here on HIVE.

Your idea about the seed phrase puzzle is just very clever.

I'll try to integrate it somehow.

I'll post a 'what I'm trying to do' thing here on hive.

As far as self-interest goes, and deriving a harvest, I think there will be room for that as well.

We'll see how it goes.

Nice to talk to with you.
