Summary - My proposal is to create 10 fox themed custom NFTs (integrating the evolution of the FOX logo over the years) and award them to the creators of the first 10 accepted proposals on the DAO.
Abstract - This proposal will include 10 custom digital art pieces, each individually minted and sent to the VERY FIRST 10 creators of accepted proposals on the Shapeshift DAO (not including myself). Each piece will be uniquely its own and the vision is to share the story of Shapeshift over the past 7+ years through these 10 pieces by incorporating the evolution of the Shapeshift FOX logo.
Motivation - As someone who has been along for the entire ride of Shapeshift, with a unique perspective, not being an employee, it is my hope that these pieces will not only share a story of the history of Shapeshift but also commemorate this next chapter.
The hope is to add value to being the first contributors to the project, incentivizing involvement, creating excitement, and rewarding people with awesome NFTs. The NFTs also have the opportunity to be used as marketing materials to get people excited about the Shapeshift DAO.
Specification - I will create and mint 10 NFTs that will be awarded to the first 10 accepted proposals on the DAO (not including this one) that will be delivered at the rate of 2 pieces per week at the cost of 1200 FOX per piece totaling 12,000 FOX. I will be in charge of collecting the proper addresses for the delivery of the NFTs to the appropriate awardees. I will put a 10% commission on secondary sales into the NFT contracts and I will give ½ of the proceeds back to the DAO if and when it sells (if applicable).
Benefits - Motivation for others to become involved in the early days of the Shapeshift DAO. Drum up excitement for this project while supporting the community through intuitive art. Capturing a moment in time, through a custom NFT, at the very beginning of this project. The possibility of further secondary sales, thus adding revenue back to the DAO.
Drawbacks - I do not see any drawbacks to this proposal but am open to hearing feedback on what others may see that I do not.
Vote- A “for” vote would mean funding 12000 FOX in order to commission the creation and minting of 10 individual NFTS. Those NFTs would be given out to the first 10 creators of accepted proposals (myself not included) as well as the Shapeshift DAO gaining 5% of any future sales of these NFTs.
An “against” would mean that none of these pieces get created or distributed.
