**Introduction:** This proposal outlines Team Feooh's development efforts towards the creation of the Sportsgeist, aimed at revolutionizing the sports betting industry. After a productive session with Daredevil3x7, it became evident that there's a strong passion for this project.  The introduction facilitated by Bob between our teams has been pivotal, and we aim to leverage this partnership to build on top of Zeitgeist Parachain.

**Project Goals: **
- Our primary goal is to launch the Minimum Product (MVP) version of Sportsgeist, incorporating the Zeitgeist SDK.
- Our approach involves closely aligning our development strategies with Zeitgeist's technological frameworks, especially its front-end stack, which employs React. This alignment ensures that Sportsgeist not only benefits from cutting-edge technology but also maintains consistency and compatibility with Zeitgeist's ecosystem.
- The purpose of the collaboration is to have a Demonstrable Application of Zeitgeist Prediction Market via Zexifi.
- Apache 2.0 License is adopted for source code and all project related assets. https://opensource.org/license/apache-2-0

**Project Technical Updates:**
- **Technical UI Development**: The technical user interface for the Sportsgeist MVP has been successfully delivered. This version is currently hosted on Vercel, showcasing the progress and providing a tangible prototype for feedback and minor fixes.
- **Wallet Integration:** Various wallet integrations, including Polkadot.js and Talisman, have been implemented to facilitate seamless transactions within the Sportsgeist platform.
- **Backend Development:** The next phase of our development focuses on the backend, particularly the implementation of the SportsDuel functionality. This feature is central to Sportsgeist, enabling users to engage in competitive predictions and duels based on sports events. 
- **End-to-End Testing: **A comprehensive end-to-end (E2E) testing phase on the development network is planned. This testing is critical for identifying and addressing any potential issues before the public launch. 
- **MVP Launch:** The culmination of our efforts will be the launch of the Sportsgeist MVP on Battery Station. This platform will serve as the initial launchpad for Sportsgeist, allowing us to reach our target audience and gather valuable feedback for future iterations.

- Incentive for achieving Key Result 1: $50 value of ZTG per video
- Incentive for achieving Key Result 2: $50 value of ZTG per video
- Incentive for achieving Key Result 3: $50 value of ZTG per video
- Incentive for achieving Key Result 4: $50 value of ZTG per video

**Scope of Work:**

Videos scripts must be written and vetted by Zeitgeist team before video is created. 

**Video list:**

1. Introduction to Zeitgeist PM: A comprehensive overview of the project, its goals, and the team behind it. (revamp)
2. Real-World Use Cases: Demonstrating how Zeitgeist PM and prediction markets can be used to solve real-world problems, such as predicting election outcomes, forecasting product demand, or anticipating market trends. (revamp)

7. Decentralized Finance (DeFi) and Zeitgeist: Exploring the intersection between DeFi and prediction markets in a DeFi world, and how they complement each other. 
8. Building on the Zeitgeist Protocol: A deep dive in the possibilities of Zeitgeist as a protocol and the potential of building applications powered by Prediction Markets.

**Conclusion:**

This project proposal outlines a plan to curate a series of 8 educational videos focusing on Prediction Markets and the Zeitgeist Ecosystem over a four-month timeline, starting from August 1, 2023, to November 30, 2023. The videos will be curated by a Romanian team in direct cooperation with the Zeitgeist team.

The objectives of the project are to produce high-quality video content for the Zeitgeist Ecosystem and to cover a range of topics pertinent to Prediction Markets and the Zeitgeist Ecosystem. The cadence is set at 2 videos per month or 1 video every 2 weeks.

The key results to be achieved are tied to the number of videos produced at the end of each month, starting with 2 videos by the end of August, and culminating with 8 videos by the end of November. Incentives for achieving these key results are set at 1000 ZTG per video.

The scope of work entails creating video content on topics like an introduction to Zeitgeist PM, real-world use cases, how Prediction Markets work, the future of Prediction Markets, a comparison between Zeitgeist and traditional prediction markets, Zeitgeist App features, the intersection between Decentralized Finance (DeFi) and Zeitgeist, and building on the Zeitgeist Protocol.

All video scripts will be written and vetted by the Zeitgeist team before the video creation process **begins.**

By creating educational videos for the Zeitgeist project holds immense value and significance, offering a range of benefits that contribute to the project's success and impact. These videos can serve as a powerful medium to communicate the vision, functionalities, and real-world applications of the Zeitgeist platform to a diverse audience. The organization can expect to realize benefits like ***increased awareness and adoption*** because educational videos can play a pivotal role in raising awareness about the Zeitgeist platform and its potential applications, ***enhanced user understanding*** by empowering users with a better understanding of how to interact with the Zeitgeist platform confidently and effectively and ***building trust and credibility*** by creating transparent and informative educational videos to demonstrate the organization's commitment to open communication, knowledge sharing, and user education.

**Introduction:**
Sportsgeist is a peer-to-peer (P2P) betting app that revolutionizes the traditional sports betting experience by offering users the flexibility to create their own betting pools to challenge other users, set individual (concludent) odds on the outcomes, create P2P-Challenger or create Betting Tournaments. Unlike conventional sports betting, where users just place a bet and wait or sell, Sportsgeist empowers a more social and competitive Sports betting experience
This approach unleashes the power of free markets between users, fostering new opportunities for all participants while enabling them to directly connect with one another. By harnessing the cutting-edge benefits of Web3 technology and the user-friendliness of Web2 technology, Sportsgeist combines the best of both worlds. This innovative platform will fundamentally change how people invest in their sports knowledge, marking the evolution of Sports Betting to a more social experience.

**Conclusion:**
The proposal outlines a plan for the development and launch of Sportsgeist, a peer-to-peer (P2P) betting app that aims to revolutionize the sports betting industry. The project's objectives are to create a user-driven, social, and competitive betting platform, utilizing the advantages of both Web2 and Web3 technologies to provide a secure, decentralized, and user-friendly experience.

The scope of work includes the creation of a vision statement, a litepaper for the MVP, wireframes, a full design paper, a mock-up & clickable prototype, an official website, and finally, the development of the MVP. The timeline for these deliverables ranges from June 2023 to Q1/Q2 2024.

Potential risks such as inadequate understanding of user needs, unclear vision or strategy, technical challenges, overambitious MVP, misalignment between MVP and market needs, scope creep, ineffective communication, resource constraints, and insufficient quality assurance have been identified. Mitigation strategies for each of these risks have been proposed.
