[Approved] For Marketing DAO NDC Aurora Ambassador's program budget for August 2023 to amplify elections

The Aurora Community stands at the heart of the vibrant NEAR and Aurora ecosystem, embodying collaboration, shared values, and a collective vision. With the transition towards becoming a Near Digital Collective, the community embraces decentralization and a new governance stage.

Within the Aurora ecosystem, the community is the backbone, providing support, resources, and collaboration opportunities for individuals and projects. It is a space where ideas are shared, expertise is cultivated, and partnerships are formed. The community acts as a bridge between different stakeholders, fostering connections between developers, users, investors, and enthusiasts. This interconnectedness strengthens the ecosystem’s resilience and enhances its ability to adapt, innovate, and thrive in a rapidly evolving landscape.

The Aurora Community DAO is a diverse and global network, that spreads across various continents and countries. These communities, along with several dedicated media outlets, play a crucial role in disseminating Aurora-related news and updates throughout the ecosystem. Each regional community operates in its own language and actively participates in both online and in-person events. They contribute to content creation, share news and information, and foster engagement within their respective regions. These vibrant communities and media outlets form an integral part of the Aurora ecosystem, promoting collaboration, knowledge sharing, and fostering a sense of belonging among its members.

Please join Aurora Community DAO WG to participate in upcoming events:
– Ambassador’s program launch (August-September 2023);
– Councils election (October 2023).

Rewards
As part of the Aurora Stars Force (Ambassador) Program, Ambassadors have the opportunity to earn rewards based on their respective levels of involvement and contribution to the community. For completing each level according to the reports, participants will be rewarded with XP tokens, which can be exchanged for tokens.

Potential monthly rewards based on levels:
Level 1. Aurorian - 50$
Level 2. Believer - 200$
Level 3. Adept - 500$
Level 4. Aurora Guardian - 750$

It’s important to note that at each level member is required to complete tasks from the previous levels to be eligible for earning more points (and tokens) and producing more transactions per month than in the preceding levels.

The total possible payment for each level is a sum of the tasks from previous levels. For Level 2, it amounts to the 1st and 2nd Level’s tasks, resulting in a maximum potential reward of approximately $250 per month. Similarly, Level 4 includes tasks from Levels 1, 2, 3, and 4, with a maximum potential reward of approximately $1500 per month. That will depend on the number of tasks done during the months, its report, and its value.

Payments/Rewards for the Trial Month
The inaugural month of the program will be conducted in a trial mode, welcoming the participation of the 66 most deserving Aurorians.

Rewards for the first/trial month:
Level 4. 0 people *750$ = 0
Level 3. 8 people *500$ = 4000
Level 2. 0 people *200$ = 0
Level 1. 60 people *50$ = 3000

After the first month, those who follow the conditions will be moved to Level 2, and the new bunch of applicants will be accepted for the Second month on Level 1.

Budget (rewards pool for ambassadors, launch month): 7 000 USD

Thank you for your proposal.

Any drafts and working groups where one can learn more about the Aurora community working group and how the ambassador program works.

If you could break down the funding request further, that would be great.

I am happy to jump in and assist as well if needed, as I have some experience designing an ambassador program structure from my work with Moonbeam and Gate .io

Hi @AuroraCommunityDAO @IgbozeIsrael – a few questions about the proposal:

  • What’s your plan for assessing ambassador participation each month? Will it take place on the same day each month and individual payout amount for each ambassador will follow? Curious.
  • If ambassador activity does not hit max, will you hold excess and use for subsequent months?
  • How will ambassador activities align with current KPIs for August/Sept around NDC election and BOS?
  • NDC elections
  • Increasing numbers of active Developers
  • Increasing numbers of active Users and Transactions
  • Increasing numbers of Tools on BOS

Thanks!

Ambassadors are to be assessed either daily or weekly based on the head of ambassadors. This is to be able to keep check and correct the wrong approaches of ambassadors as it is a growing program.

You got this right. If ambassador A does not hit max, there is a calculation method to be implemented such that work done is paid and change is rolled over to next month.

Major aspects of this program is focused on on-chain metrics which will include active users of Aurora/NEAR dApps, onbaording of builders and also support for mini projects to be built on Aurora/BOS

People onbaorded can actively participate in election as they are brought in as legit users and educated people.
