# Collab Land Collab - Meeting Agenda #1 06/15/22
**Humpty (Orange Protocol)**
> Reputation protocol for web3
- Any project can provision access to data generated by the project
- Allow any project, DAO, or individual be able to define what reputation is to them
Creating reputation for users & communities
- **Onchain & Offchain Activity**
- **Better onboarding mechanisms** - Curating communities based off shared interest, shared purpose, shared mission, shared values
- **Better incentives** - retaining the best & more impactful contributors (incentive alignment)
- **reputation weighted voting** - include an individuals reputation to unlock a richer governance experience
Working with DAOhaus, DeWork, & Collab.Land!
**Austin (Sobol)**
> Metta Platfrom for DAOs
**Focus** --> interoperability
- Make it easier to navigate and operate DAOs
- treasury, governance, reputation, compensation, access, etc.
- building front-end & navigation experience
- automation to support multi-contract calls and make these DAO primitives more accessible
--> moving away from the web2.0 paradigm of UI & business logic being locked together
Want to help create the UX of web3 (alternative to Salesforce & Workday!)
**Merthy (ShowKarma)**
> Reputation system for DAO contributors
>
- Integrated snapshot, on-chain voting, and forums
- Work with each DAO to define reputation by the own DAOs own ranking
- 30k contributors indexed w/ profile page - creating Karma score
- Reputation is custom to each DAO, it is open-source
- DAOs can customize reputation to their own needs

**James Young (Abridged)** working on Collab.Land
>
> Powering tokenized (token-gated) communities - Opening up API & Launching an SDK
- 30k tokenized communities
- Create a marketplace
- Helping connect web2 & web3
- focused on DIDs & VCs
- Figuring out the correct abstraction that allows for the highest degree of Interoperability
- How can we scope this out and figure out how to work together?
---
**SDK**
- Collab.Land is powered through an API that reads across 14-chains
- API server connects to Telegram & Discord, want to connect to other platforms
- SDK is a wrapper around the API
- npm install
- with a website you can do a one-liner and begin token gating
- integrations into other platforms
- alpha of reddit & working on github as well
- VCs distributed based off Github events
- Token gating >> VC gating
- If you complete x # of PRs then you can receive a super dev VC unlocking additional channels within a discord
---
Whoever installs **Collab.Land** & deploys it, will there be a linkage between an ETH addr & other handles
- How to present this data in a self-sovereign way
- collab.land today is centralized service (not disclosing wallet or user information)
- e2c and make sure we are not exposing user data
- DIDs at the user level & at the community level
- 2-types of mapping
- Users permissioning access to data
- Command Center to instrument rules for granting roles in discord
- Marketplace
- Imagine a ShowKarma one-click install app that can be added by the admin and that bot-command is now available in that community, it would be up to each user to permission access
- It would be up to the admin to permission access at the community level
---
**Types of reputation that are important for Collab.Land to use in order to create strong & rich user profiles ?**
- VCs = like off-chain NFTs
- Create a ton of VCs (like an event log)
- Gate people who start an initiative
- Automate the process of access control
- Combining VCs generated through the SDK, gate access to a mint based off some VCs ~ which represents work done in a reddit, discord, or github
- Combining on-chain assets with VCs in complex ways so users can pinpoint & reduce coordination through automation
- main hypothesis of Collab.Land on reducing coordination
Define arbitrary events that are in the control of users to determine whether or not they would like to permit access.
Group VCs together & have that be the token URI for soulbound token
There is a ton of composability here, so creating the primitives is the main focus right now
Riding the balance between abstract concept & specific use cases (exploration phase)
To get to creating the primitives, we want to E2C in a serious manner so the correct foundation is set.
There is a shift toward social identity and reputation, this is just the beginning and Collab.Land is excited about helping lead the way

**Orange Protocol**
- Follow up Q's
VCs being multiplatform
Going from VCs to SBTs
Can non-transferrable tokens be used in lieu of VCs
- allowing flexibility where reputation (vc) can be generated from a community or individual defined reputation model
- has this person or community participated in x,y,z ?
- generate vc that attests to that activity
- the generated vc can be utilized to redeem or mint a non-transferrable token
**Response**
> wanting to build out the primitives is the focus so we can remain flexible in the different types of activity we are able to attest to using vcs
No need to doxx based on specific assets that an individual owns
- every action that is taken can generate a VC automatically
- once the VCs are generated, then you can figure out what to do with them
**Guest-Pass Feature**
- using the same token rules and gain access to certain channels (temporary gym membership)
- after the guest pass expires, them the individual can level up and purchase the gym membership
- if you have access to one discord server, you can gain access to another discord server based of your asset holdings or certain activity you take within that community
**How can ShowKarma, Sobol, and Orange Protocol leverage the infrastructure that Collab.Land has created**
> Creating the Composable layer of web3 in conjunction with collab.land
**Integrating w/ Orange**
- Creating a more comprehensive graph or level of reputation across on-chain & off-chain activity taken by user or a community, bringing it a layer above and ascribing some value to it
- Using Collab.Land VCs within the Orange ecosystem to allow developers and other interested parties to inherit & build on the attestation made by Collab.Land for other types of reputation that is generated through DeFi, governance, or other types of engagement within communities
**Building the Interop standard**
this will allow projects to import the VCs that are generated by Collab.Land
- VC gating
- Use OpenSea MetaData standards (quick & dirty - to not get stuck in standards)
- Meta Data gating vs VC gating
- Using token URI to enable anyone to import VCs into their project, community, or protocol
**Users don't even need a wallet**
10-12% of community members actually own an asset within a given community in crypto
- The gateway to web3 is community based
**Initial Use Case to Coordinate around**
> Unlocking of DIDs & VCs - How do we unlock to millions of users?
- Very promising but at this stage still very raw (not packaged for ez consumption)
- Just onboarded a project that was able to integrate their infrastructure w/ Collab.Land to do emoji tipping on L2
- Partnered with Veramo to support issuing VC credentials
- Alpha version of SDK
- Make contact with reality: 3rd party devs before e2c to have some POCs to show for (beyond written documentation)
Attest, Read in the POC env from Collab.Land & display them on a timeline feed (like a linkedin)
- played around with the testing on both the user & issuers end
- attesting through a VC for members are nested within a guild within a community (ShowKarma)
**ShowKarma & Orange Capabilities**
- Generating an interesting amount of VCs that are related to the activities that ShowKarma & Orange are playing, then perhaps there could be the ability to issue some score based VC that could help with gating?
**Begin Work on Cross-Collaboration to Enable a dynamic reputation system**
Two kinds of VCs: (OrangeProtocol)
1. attestation for an activity
2. then there is a score (should be automated based on #1)
a.) liquidity provision
b.) governance participation
c.) social media engagement
- Use Collab.Land VCs to mint Orange Reputation NFTs
- Use Orange VCs to token-gate discord communities
- Use ShowKarma Score
#### What does a Social Graph for web3 look like?
- Nodes (fb, twitter, instagram)
- Nodes that link the accounts together are incredibly primitive, static, & linear
**VCs expand this tremendously**
- a node may be a protocol where it is supplying other projects or users data generated by users and communities.
- The MetaData on the connection between protocols and users can be specific & rich
- ShowKarma uses an algorithm & presents it in Sobol
- Orange provides the curation aspect around reputation
**Why this is appealing**
- On-chain data is incredibly limited
- Doing this with VCs, we can use different curves & even be blockchain agnostic
#### Details of the initial Campaign
- Where to continue the discussion?
- Campaign, who is contributing what?
- NFT, design, model, etc.
- Small experiment so it can be done in seasons which places a solid time constraint?
