Development Grant for Content Gating with Creator Coin

Summary/Abstract: Rally creators are looking for ways to gate content such as their websites using their Creator Coins. Gating content using Creator Coins allows creators to reward their top token holders with exclusive content, as well as generate more demand for their coins.

For full discussion, please review the Discourse forum posts here: https://forum.rally.io/t/proposal-gate-content-using-any-rally-coin/882

Background:

MintGate would like to propose the following budget for their development and implementation of a widget and token gating API to enable creators to use Creator Coins to gate their content:

Additional testing and research of OAuth: 8 hours * $100 = $800.

Implementation of the widget (for creators to add to their websites): 40 hours * $100 = $4,000

Implementation of the the token gating API: 60 hours * $100 = $6,000

Testing and troubleshooting 10 hours * $100 = $1,000

Total budget: $11,800

MintGate would like to provide each creator with two free token gated links. Any creator who creates more than two token gated links has the option to choose either: 1) a monthly subscription for $25 worth of their Creator Coin a month for an unlimited number of links and analytics, or 2) $5 worth of their Creator Coin for a one-time purchase of one link that is valid for a year.

Creators who want to access the APIs directly on their personal sites and projects will be billed directly. Creators and community devs can use the API for free up to one link and an additional $5 to $10 per additional link.

Proposal This proposal will grant MintGate $11,800 in $RLY from the previously allocated $RLY for developer grants and bounties to develop the creator tools described above.

A Yes vote for this proposal would approve the payment of this developer grant of $11,800 in $RLY to MintGate.

A No vote would result in rejection of this proposal.
