To create a prize for best wearable book for NEAR Alexandria Library on Metaverse. Our intention is to make an acquisition prize where people submit their books to NEAR Alexandria, which mints them, and Metaverse DAO (or selected known judges) choose one of them as the best wearable book, whose creator will earn 200 usd on near blockchain, after minting a NEAR NFT on Mintbase or Paras, creating a forum account, and making a payout proposal. If other people decide to create a forum account and submit NEAR NFTs linked and linking to the wearable books, Metaverse DAO will also choose the best NEAR NFT and give the creator a prize of 100 usd on NEAR Blockchain.
Benefit/justification
The main benefit for the DAO is to bring new members for the community, by giving near on near blockchain to good artists from eth chain. There are also some side benefits, that is to bring more interested people to NEAR, to create interest in the prizes, to create authority on metaverse, and to decentralize resources to the community. To Metaverse DAO, the fact that people are producing metaverse objects and NEAR NFTs is good, because it links metaverse production on voxels with NEAR NFTs. And to NEAR Alexandria is the fact that it is being seeing and it is growing the number of books in the library.
The project
We will enjoy the next party on NEAR Alexandria Library on Metaverse, Sept 15th, with the partnership of Digital One, TSA Incubator, Bitpixi, Purpletariat, Metacat, Vessy (and maybe Xtinct). Metaverse DAO is going to set up a prize in this large event for best wearable book, as we said, and also an event with a trip on metaverse, with musicians, and great personalities. Judges are going to be chosen, and after the party the winner book is revealed. We call all the people for a second prize on the forum for NEAR NFTs, and we call the winner to mint his/her NEAR NFT and to open an account in the forum.
