Allocation Plan refer to the Rubric to see how this impacts your Notary score

Concreteness of Allocation Plan

Allocation Strategy

How do you plan on allocating the DataCap requested above? Please describe your allocation strategy with as much specificity as you can. This includes the target amount per client and rate at which you'll allocate DataCap.

We firmly believe that Metaverse and Web3 are the future development trends, so we will allocate most of the DataCap to store DeFi data, NFT data, gamefil data, audio, video, and metrics related to Web3 and Metaverse, followed by Enterprise data and personal application data.

| Type | Weight |
| ----  | ------- | 
| For Web3 & Metaverse | 70% |
| For Enterprise.  | 25% |
| For Person  | 5%  |

At the same time, we have developed a scoring criterion to strictly review the client's application:
![Beta Technology Client Rubric](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/betayes66/rubric_for_client/main/rubric.png)

Beta Technology Client Rubric

How do you plan on securing the DataCap to ensure your organization (and its delegated members) are the ones allocating the DataCap?

Our company will adopt a hardware wallet to keep the wallet address allocated by DataCap, and then be kept by the company CTO. The GitHub account is kept by the DataCap applicant, me. Let the hardware wallet account and the GitHub account be held by two people.

Client Due Diligence

How will you vet the clients that are applying for DataCap? What questions will you ask to ensure your trust is placed well and that clients can properly handle the DataCap you intend to allocate to them?

1. On-boarding due diligence:
We will ask the following basic questions:
(1) describe their main business and the type and size of data they plan to store;
(2) Whether the source of data stored on Filecoin is authorized;
(3) What is your past practice in data storage;
(4) Whether the data stored on Filecoin is subject to confidentiality, commercial secrets, state secrets or national security.
(5) Understand their understanding of FIlecoin and the reasons for choosing Filecoin as data storage;
(6) The name and node of the miner it wishes to store DataCap, and the allocation percentage;
(7) Whether it is willing to cooperate with our continuous inspection of the verified transactions that you may make to miners after the allocation of DataCap, etc.

In addition to the above questions, we also require clients to provide us with materials attesting or describing their reputation, distribution strategy and track record, etc., so that we can assess the qualifications of potential clients.

2. Review after distribution:
We will conduct ongoing reviews of assigned clients on a regular basis to avoid misuse or misuse of their assigned DataCaps. Ensure that the customer uses the allocated DataCap for the approved committed use.
(1) We will regularly randomly check the data stored by customers on Filecoin to verify the authenticity of the data;
(2) Since DataCaps are allocated to customers in stages, we may penalize customers by delaying or even canceling undistributed DataCaps if any improper or fraudulently spent allocated DataCaps are found.
(3) We will use tools such as Fil+ Canvas, Fil+ Watch (if it is open) to check the relationship between customers and SPs to prevent self-trading behavior and data buying and selling transactions;
(4) Check whether it only stores data on a single node.
(5) Collect community members' reporting information to check whether there is any transaction behavior after the customer obtains Datacap.

Of course, we do not just use the above fixed rules for due diligence and post-assignment review of clients. The method is flexible, and we believe that better management methods will continue to emerge as the community develops.

What processes will you employ when granting additional DataCap to a client that has previously been verified? This includes confirming that the client is not improperly using the DataCap they were previously granted, i.e., making deals with a single SP entity.

1. Use the Fil-Plus Dashboard and Tools to check previously assigned DataCap usage history. Make sure that there are no unfair or unusual transactions and that normal data is stored.

2. In order to improve the storage and stability of data, ensure that the DataCap replicates stored on filecoin is allocated to at least 4 different SPs.

Bookkeeping Plan

Do you plan on conducting all your allocation decisions in public (e.g. Github repo), private (e.g. over email, Telegram, etc), or both?

All allocation decisions will be made publicly in the Github repository. We will also send emails to people who may be interested.

Where do you plan on keeping a publicly accessible record of all your allocation decisions?

All allocation decisions will happen in public, at the following repository:
https://github.com/betayes66/filecoin-notaries-onboarding

Service Level Agreement

Engagement in Program

Which level (1-5) of service commitment are you willing to dedicate to participating in the Fil+ program? This includes making DataCap allocations (direct and/or Large Datasets), joining working groups, adding comments on discussion/issues, attendance in governance calls, messages in Slack, etc. For a full list of the service levels and time commitments please review the rubric

L2.

Track Record

Past allocation

Have you previously received DataCap to allocate before? If so, please link to any previous applications.

No, We don't have received DataCap before.

Disclosures

Do you/your organization have any relationship(s) with other existing notaries or their organizations? If yes, please list the names of the Notary individuals or organizations you may be related to.

no.

@betayes66

Thank you for applying to serve as a Notary in this 4th round of elections for the Filecoin Plus program. This round’s pool of applicants was the largest and most accomplished in the programs history; and in light of this, we were unable to offer positions to every worthy applicant. After carefully reviewing the application, I’m sorry to inform that it was not selected as a Notary in this 4th round.

Please know that this decision in no way diminishes your application. We are impressed by the contributions you’ve demonstrated and hope you continue to drive the success of the Filecoin storage system. The 5th round of new Notary Elections is scheduled to open in Q2 of 2023, and we encourage you to maintain a presence in the community and return during the next round. Please reach out to Galen, Kevin-FF, or Philip on Slack if you have any questions.

Thank you for the hard work your application represents.
