  1. Introduction
    Hello everyone. This grant is for May, when we will focus on introducing an innovative Aurora Faucet feature. Building on our previous successes, this feature aims to incentivize the usage of the Aurora network and encourage HODLing of Aurora tokens, ultimately enhancing user engagement and transaction volume within the Aurora ecosystem.

We recently partnered with CoinMarketCap and are seeing a huge influx of new users to PipeFlare. We will use this month to drive as many new users as we can to Aurora.

  1. About PipeFlare
    PipeFlare is a blockchain-based gaming platform powered by 1FLR and 2FLR Tokens, with features like staking, daily crypto faucet claims, an NFT Marketplace, and more. We have a community of approximately 1,000,000 web3 gamers and around 15,000 daily active players. We’ve already build 17 play-to-earn games, with our latest game built entirely on Aurora - Pyro’s mining Rush.

  2. Past Success

In April, we successfully implemented a special access pass which allows player to access an “Aurora Level” within "Pyro’s Mining Rush’. This level allows players to experience three sub levels of enemies, experiences, and rewards. Users will be able to mine the map for Aurora Tokens, and will soon be able to stake their Aurora using our in-game contract. Get ready for three levels of new enemies and adventures.

  1. Project Specifics and Activities
    In May, our project will focus on introducing a unique Aurora Faucet that incentivizes the usage of the Aurora network and hodling of Aurora tokens.
  • Aurora Faucet:
    • The faucet is one of the most popular features on PipeFlare, with up to 40,000 users engaging with it daily.
    • This isn’t just a simple faucet; it’s a faucet that incentivizes the usage of the Aurora network and HODLing of Aurora tokens.
    • The faucet will drip a small amount of Aurora tokens to normal users but will provide significant bonuses based on the number of Aurora tokens in a user’s wallet and their progress in Pyro’s Mining Rush, a game built on the Aurora network.
    • Users who hold Aurora tokens and play Pyro’s Mining Rush game can substantially magnify their faucet rewards.
  1. Goals and Benefits for the Ecosystem
    Our initiatives aim to boost user engagement, increase transaction volume, and strengthen the Aurora ecosystem’s presence on our platform.

To complete all of the tasks above, we will need one month and the total budget will be $5000 per month.
