Campaign Overview Proposal

We had a great conversation in KNINE Telegram chat (held weekly) about K9 adoption.

K9 Quest: The Great Staking Adventure is a month-long gamified campaign designed to engage the K9 community, increase staking participation, and reward loyal users. The campaign introduces quests, achievements, leaderboards, and exclusive rewards to drive ecosystem involvement.

Key Features

  1. Daily/Weekly Quests: Simple tasks to keep users engaged regularly.

  2. Achievement Milestones: Long-term goals with bigger rewards.

  3. Leaderboards: Friendly competition to encourage participation.

  4. Exclusive Rewards: NFTs, bonus KNINE, and SHIB rewards for completing challenges.

  5. Community Goals: Collaborative objectives to unite participants.

How It Works

Participants sign up on the K9 platform and complete quests/tasks to earn K9 Points, which can be redeemed for rewards or boost leaderboard positions.

I like the idea, no doubt! I think the numbers probably need to be reduced though on the daily and weekly to attract more participants. Regardless if they’d be on top of the leaderboard, having the capability to be involved would entice more participants than just big dogs in the game. Biggins would still lead of course.

For example:

  • Expecting people to buy ~$250 a month in KNINE to stake alone seems like a reach.

  • 50M locked for 6 months for a single, one month campaign is a lot for hopes of a few percent increase in potential winnings. That’s also another ~$400 at current prices. So now we’re up to ~$650 per participant to qualify. That’s a tall order, IMO.

Now we have to get into the logistics of who’s going to build out the queries and logic and dashboard and create and launch the NFTs as well.

This is a pricy campaign for only a month long. I’d like to see it in play for half a year to a year. Tweak the numbers a bit to be fairer to the average investor. Raise or lower the rewards to be a fair compensation for the asks.

Ultimately, we want a net gain in Bone Crusher usage and every KNINE locked is a win.

I think there needs to be more ideas for the NFTs that would be created. A one and done utility doesn’t seem worth the effort.

Great idea, Rugg!

This seems like a great initiative and creative idea to grow the community, but it seems operationally intensive on a first read. Has there been any sort of discussion regarding an implementation plan?

Perhaps a request for budget and a willingness from any DAO members to own this initiative?

Totally agree, it needs to be refined and crafted in a more balanced way. Buzz, you mentioned establishing a sub DAO specifically to help with K9/Shibarium adoption, was wondering could those resources help craft the idea closer to the DAO initiatives.

I think its a great idea too.
And like ppl said above the numbers i feel need to be revised to incentives newer and smaller holder who are not yet using shibarium or bone crusher to become more involved and make the move over.
But no doubt ill be taking part.

I think it sounds great…Also sounds like it would need a team of devs to build it. I understand a lot of the data could come from our new dashboard but that doesn’t put it all together.How do you plan to make it all happen?

You make a great point, the idea is to have open discussions to help refine and sculpt the idea into something more aligned to K9 DAO.

I love the idea and discussion.I have allot of admiration and respect for you for the thought and work you put into getting it here on the forum. I like Couch’s input on the numbers. I like the other ideas around making it simple for a new community member. I have reservations about the data aggregation and having everything developed into a quest or gaming platform. However is there are DAO members that want to and can overcome those obstacles I would welcome it.
