[MS] DOT #1592 - Pudgy Penguins <> Mubert Protocol Events Tour, Powered by Polkadot
active
Description

https://polkadot.subsquare.io/referenda/1592

The Treasury Proposal is about a collaboration between Mubert Protocol and Pudgy Penguins, powered by Polkadot. Mubert Protocol is building the first data rollup on Polkadot, focusing on streaming and consumable data like AI-generated music. They want to work with Pudgy Penguins, a popular Web3 brand, to host events and increase Polkadot's visibility.

The main goal is to bring new users to the Polkadot ecosystem through real-world events, AI-driven music, and Web3 culture. They plan to have AI music DJ sets, on-chain music experiences, and community activations in different countries. This will help Polkadot reach a younger audience and show its connection to real-world experiences.

This proposal is supported by the Web3 Foundation, SubWallet, and Mythical Games. It will help grow the Polkadot ecosystem, change its narrative, and bring more users and partners to the network. The events will also help Polkadot connect with other chains and mainstream audiences.

It's not clear that Polkadot has set up the next step in the funnel to gauge the ultimate conversion into strategically relevant usage metrics or leads. I'd like to see more of that laid out before approving.

We feel partial about this one. It is an interesting vertical.

I do not understand the final benefit for Polkadot in this proposal.

It's an interesting vertical, yet I'm not fully convinced about the value return. I abstain.

the campaign’s costs are too high for the estimated impact, reaching at most 1m users (unlikely) for an $81k ask, equating to ~$81cpm in a "best case scenario." this is very expensive in terms of marketing costs, compared to alternative channels. we can leverage programmatic networks to target the same gamer audience for $1-5cpm max at scale, so the math doesn’t justify it. it’s unclear how the proposed solutions will drive meaningful adoption; it feels heavily branding-focused, which likely won’t have significant impact in my view.

Our view on this one is somewhere in the middle — the concept is genuinely interesting and has creative potential to raise Polkadot's profile. However, the proposal appears too costly with the potential benefits, particularly in the absence of clear KPIs. Abstain.

On the one hand I do agree with fellow DAO members that the ROI of these events is unclear, however getting the Polkadot brand out there with events like these is just part of the marketing money that has to be spent. My vote is still abstain as I think this should either go through the Event bounty or the Marketing bounty.

I see no clear reason to support this, is not clear how it will improve the polkadot platform...
