@JamesHuckle Yeah, sorry, this is just a clickbait example of what we should be providing as a community. I know individual members of the community have already been running things like this out of their own pocket, but ideally, this would be promoted from the top.

We also need rewards for any member adding value to the ecosystem (developers, etc). MM needs to become the currency that powers the entire community ecosystem before it can attempt to power others. Sitting on it and staking it only offers so much value for the rest of the community - it's lazy capitalism.

@JamesHuckle it’s a great idea.

@JamesHuckle bro why not just do it lol. You already wrote up the post. Another idea would be to create a marketing “VC” group comprised of 5k mm and over holders who could split the reward payouts. I mean you get 5 people and each pays out .25 mm to the winner? That would be a crazy sustainable model.

@JamesHuckle awesome LFG

@DarthVader Firstly, it's because I don't have outreach as a single entity and even if I did I do not possess the economic scalability. This is why we do things TOGETHER as large teams and companies and not individuals.

Do you think companies would hire huge teams of marketing professionals/programers/financial managers if they thought each function could be satisfied by just a few individuals who would pay for their initiatives with their own means...trust me if they could remain competitive and do so, then they absolutely would, sadly, reality paints a different picture.

Also, show me a startup without a budget to grow and I will show you a dead company in 6-12 months.

Try and practice having a bigger mindset, because this is a fiercely competitive landscape and by relegating efforts to a minority of individuals you remove most of what makes communities (perhaps even humans themselves) so powerful!

@JamesHuckle you proposed paying influencers 1 mm. You’re not the one who is doing the outreach. You would be paying the reward. The little guys aren’t going to shell out 1mm. But a group of whales could. Call it a treasury.

@DarthVader If TL agrees to this (and we need his agreement as we are a team after all) and believes it is worth his time to promote, then I will be the first person to deposit MM into a treasury.

But let's be real, we have a 20% staking payout atm, that could easily be slashed to 10%, with the remaining going into a Treasury. It's a more elegant solution and importantly, far more professional and trustworthy.

@DarthVader It was not merely a small group of engineers that were responsible for SpaceX launching a rocket or Tesla building an electric car; it does in fact take a huge effort on all fronts, top-down, bottom-up, by nearly every member of the company (but almost always led from the top) to achieve success, and even then, the odds remain depressingly low.

@JamesHuckle I will also deposit to the treasury 25 MM tokens to begin with, and we can see how it goes. And 1 MM is a lot for some people especially in many countries around the world. Heck I'd even do it being in the US. 😂😂😂

1.) It would be nice to see someone already in the community do it vs someone from outside just to start it. The more organic and real representation of the ecosystem the better.

2.) Videos should not waste their time slandering past/disgruntled influencers as it's a waste of energy. We want to keep the energy as positive as possible and I am already aware of how annoying those past influencers are so I understand guys. 😂😂 But lets not focus on that and instead move forward.

But I also agree with @DarthVader as we simply do not have to wait for TL. It would be good though but there are many opportunities that he mentioned and also I called on similar things on a past video. Anyone can build on this ecosystem already. And when TL adds a MM payment system, its game

@NFTDailyNews It's about reach, mate. Someone in the community has already done a fantastic job of trying this but didn't have the reach a 1m+ channel gets, sadly we cannot fight maths.

@JamesHuckle This is either worth doing as a whole community (yes TL is part of that) or it's not worth doing at all - we have history to guide us on this.

@NFTDailyNews We want people from the US to be incentivized too because higher disposable incomes generally yield higher net investments. In fact, it's an exponential function, a country twice as rich would be expected to have 5x the amount invested into the stock market, for example. An economics lesson for you :D

@JamesHuckle Good point. 100%

@JamesHuckle what would be great if you get MM rewards from getting people onto metafora.

@JamesHuckle émail to us mean what ...who ..?

@JamesHuckle i ask @TL since july to hire designer or to put more work on marketing ....for à couple of months i was the inly one maki ng shitty ads because no one wanted ...im the carpenter in discord....they ban me after all my free work . WOW what a beautiful leader and team 🤣🤣

@NFTDailyNews we tried everything but @TL nevery reply ...he kept his money for the next pump and made more money with liquidity pool ....he dont fucking care about us

@JamesHuckle i was willing to give a youtube channel with 13k subscribers ...tey dont care too . So i sold my mm and invested somewhere where i can be listen

@JamesHuckle community is not existent....you have kell y on discord and with 45 nickname on metafora......MM is just a 1 time pump and dump ....even tl make a lot of usecase ..we dont have any team here ..no marketing ...no dev etc

@MONSTERDRINK thank you.
MonsterDrink can you bring that Youtube channel back and start making videos? 13k subs is a lot in terms of big opportunity cost. Also whoever has those big Twitter accounts would be helpful too.

Maybe TL feels comfortable doing the development solo. For example, Elon Musk wrote Paypal by himself. His coders were not good.

But like Paypal we can integrate this token in so many ways. Maybe TL just wants to build the base layer/bridge and people just figure it out from there? For example mankind shaped this planet for their use with the natural resources provided.

I would still argue that you guys do not need TL to build projects on MM. And there is no problem asking for donations on the socials. Many content creators still accept donations with wallet addresses to fund their activities.

Few concerns I can think of when building on MM is to make sure the community trust you and code/service has been audited.

Else I sense TL will reads this and directions should be fort
