--- tags: talisman --- # Talisman Address: demand on Polkadot, transactions. focus on dotSama, no one knows how to build composible dapps on Polkadot, you have to build an app and build different chainstates, Solve: API problem, can't build zapier, sovling composibility, starting w/wallet extension, not compete with multichain, dont't want to compete with MetaMask or Phantom What are you solving the problem for the community? Want to create a decentralized org, DAO Vision: enable community ownership, what we've seen experiments in DAO Defi - transaction volume, Acala? Consumer - Less community tooling in polkadot, less distribution Deliverable: - enable community ownership (MetaFactory) - wants a DAO/Open Source on product you can't launch a DAO in polkadot - B2B2C funnel, Consumer GTM or B2B GTM? A bit of both, who do I want them competent Distribute Community Manager Salary, paid to contribute their time Weak: how do we partner with parachain teams? Flag: exploring other monetization, like build extension, extend PolkadotJS, join assset dashboard, show, use case, dog fooding, how to build dapps, how to consolidate use-cases Do we do Coinbase Earn, learn Acala Move beyond just transaction volumes Wants: attract the best contributors in a DAO, seed round (Derek from Moon Beam, Acala, Parity) Enable permission. Talisman Centinals program, A lot of Ambassador programs are focused on translation but we want to find people can contribute meaninfully to core team How does Polkadot compete with Ethereum and BTC?
