GRANT MISSION, IMPACT, RISKS & REFERENCE

Grant Mission:         Our intention is to create a support program enabling existing Mintery participants and/or other prominent artists to mint their NFT collections on Stacks. This "STX creator credits" program will grant awardees with custom support up to 1 year on droplinked.com for customization services around their token gated shops (supporting merch sales).

We've done custom work/buildouts with one leading project (CrashPunks) specific to the Stacks ecosystem. We now want to allow others artists to focus on scaling through ecosystem without any additional burdens of costs.

This could be a great way to incentivize artists to mint on Stacks based on this type of value-add benefit.

Grant Impact:               - Supporting 5 key artists shops using various token gated functions and promotions.

Grant Risks:                          Forcing NFT artists to pay for the custom work we do between their merch shops which will likely limit the growth of the community.

https://droplinked.com/crashpunks

This is the first shop we originally launched with CrashPunks. Our intention is to now support:

The Hungry Artist Ghost Health

and a number of others we now have in the pipeline. This will give us the bandwidth to provide them each with up to 25 hours of custom work for their shop and use cases.

GRANT ROADMAP & DELIVERABLES

MILESTONE 1:

Deliverable:                   5 artists with 12 months supporting their custom shop hosted on droplinked

FINAL DELIVERABLE

Deliverable:                   A credit support program for artists merch shops minting NFT collections on STX.

thanks @Alisammour - fyi, the support link was a 404 for me, so dropping it here: https://droplinked.com/crashpunks

Hi @Alisammour -

Thanks for this application, but we are going to pass on this one. Reason being, while to concept sounds really cool - presenting it as 'credits' sounds like a grant for business development purposes. Additionally, we only allow individuals to have one active grant at a time.

Best, Will
