Linked Pre-Proposal

Starter (Beginner) Pack for 1st Time Users from our Talented Designers. Funded by DCL or Community.

Summary

Basically an incentive for all new users to try out Decentraland for the first time. This initiative could either be funded by Foundation or Community.

Abstract

I am thinking we can pick the top 5 wearable & emote creators to to design and mint high number NFT's which will be dropped to new users wallets. If polygon matic L2 blockchain can be utilised for the airdrop we can save big $ on gas tx fees.

Mintage for the amount can be further discussed. Somewhere between 10,000-100,000 per NFT should be sufficient.

Motivation

Encourage new users to join by giving them something special and beyond what a guest user profile offers. Maybe this is their first time interacting or owning an nft. Idea is to get all new users familiar with the metaverse, nft & web3 context.

There should be a budget up to $50K USD. All of this will go towards our creators, also supporting them financially.

Specification

Basically an incentive for all new users to try out Decentraland for the first time. This initiative could either be funded by DCL or the Community.

All that's required is for wearable and emote creators to design high mintage nft's and automatically drop them into the first time users wallets.

Collection name could be something like Welcome Pack. Some of you may ask, why not let them purchase from marketplace asn many L2 wearables & skins are already quite affordable. The answer is this creates another obstacle for new users, especially if they hadn't purchased Mana, eth, swaps etc..

I am happy to hear your feedback.

Conclusion

It has become harder to attract new users to the platform & this is all evident in the DAU/MAU numbers. We must know how to recapture their attention back. Bear market has been tough for everyone including myself. I find it difficult inviting new users to the platform and asking them to purchase skins, names etc.. at least this simple initiative can get them started .
