Disclaimer:
This is just a loose concept and is not intended to have all of the issues worked out.
Objective:
To enhance user onboarding for both @splinterlands and the HIVE blockchain by leveraging gaming conventions as platforms for direct engagement and promotion.
Funding Proposal:
- DHF Proposal: The @sps.dao should initiate a Decentralized Hive Funding (DHF) proposal to allocate funds for booth rental, promotional materials, and operational costs at various gaming and pop culture conventions.
Booth Setup and Operations:
- Joint Representation: Representatives from both @sps.dao and HIVE stakeholders will manage the booth, ensuring expertise and enthusiasm from both communities.
- Interactive Onboarding: The booth will feature:
- Promo Card Distribution: Attendees receive Splinterlands promo cards with unique redeemable IDs, similar to the Spellbook promo cards. These could be used for gameplay or as collectibles.
- Spin-to-Win Wheels:
- Pack Vouchers Wheel: Offers chances to win various numbers of pack vouchers from a pre-allocated pool.
- HIVE Rewards Wheel: Provides opportunities to win HIVE, HP, or HBD, with an option for a free HIVE account setup.
Promotional Items and Incentives:
- Exclusive Event Cards: Each convention could feature a unique, limited-edition card. These cards would only be available at the event or for purchase with DEC, enhancing their scarcity and value.
- Additional Assets: Include spins for land plots, Runi, land totems, or other Splinterlands assets, potentially sourced from existing burn mechanisms or special allocations.
- Unique Titles: Offer special titles for sale or through the wheel, adding another layer of exclusivity and engagement.
Marketing and Presentation:
- Stage Presentations: Secure slots at convention stages for presentations on Splinterlands and HIVE. This would not only showcase the games and blockchain but also attract a broader audience within the convention.
Funding Mechanism:
- Redirection of Assets: Utilize a percentage of core packs from Splinterlands' burn mechanism to fund promotional materials and giveaways. This would not only incentivize new users but also support the ecosystem's growth.
- DHF Contributions: For HIVE-related rewards, leverage the DHF to fund HIVE, HP, and HBD giveaways, promoting blockchain adoption.
Outcome Expectations:
- Increased User Base: Direct interaction at conventions can lead to immediate sign-ups and engagement.
- Community Building: Strengthen the bond between Splinterlands and HIVE communities through shared events and promotions.
- Brand Awareness: Leverage the convention's audience to increase visibility and interest in both Splinterlands and HIVE.
Next Steps:
- Proposal Submission: Draft and submit DHF and SPS DAO proposal detailing costs, expected outcomes, and management.
- Planning and Execution: Once funded, coordinate with convention organizers for booth space, schedule presentations, and prepare promotional materials.
This strategy not only leverages the excitement of gaming conventions but also directly engages potential users with tangible benefits, making the onboarding process interactive and rewarding.
@blewitt was just on with us and we were speaking about exactly what this could look like - sweet! Keep the creativity comin, Imp0ster!
Hell yeah!
I think the main ingredient we need to figure out is what is going to make people come into our booth and spend some time there learning about SL or Hive. There are tons of booths set up at these shows, and folks aren’t going to just pile in for a game they have never heard of. We need a reason for folks to want to pile in before the show even starts. I think I have one way. I’ll be popping up a detailed post this week laying out how I believe we could see success at a show like this. Hope you guys will all check it out once up and offer up opinions.
I am glad to see we are all thinking similarly, but I had no idea that he had just talked about a similar idea. I do think that we, as a community, may have discussed some variations of this concept on discord, but I wanted to get something out there that kind of rolled up the ideas.
On that note, I'll be dropping a #TPGCHALLENGE tomorrow in the same vein as your card pack article from the other day.
If you've not seen The TPG Challenges, take a look. We've done a yabapmatt bounty and some speculating thus far, but I'm thinking bigger & wider beyond SPL gameplay for at least the next few.
And yea, man, we've some incredibly switched on community members - it's great to see more of these ideas brought up & secured in a known position on the blockchain through Hive blog posts.
Cheers dude!
Would you potentially link to the episode here for those that are interested in viewing it?
Of course!
Episode 112: A Blewitt Conversation
Does not have much knowledge about marketing but a colab between Splinterlands and Hive will be great and hopefully, reduce some animosity from hive to the game.
