weekly update: february 6 2022
greetings to godots, identity owners and poor souls.
since our launch on January 30, it has been a very active, exciting week where we felt different kind of emotions at the same time. first of all, we would like to thank everyone who have been with us and supporting us for the past four and a half months plus a week, especially the HOTM family.(we love you clementine)
while our public launch didn’t go as we expected, the vault of godot has enough source to keep our momentum going and some believers around the space still arriving and feeding the vault.(it means the public mint is still live) but no matter what, we continue to fulfill the requirements of our roadmap with strong and precise steps, with the support of our identity owners.
new faces have joined our team this week, some important first steps have been taken regarding $GODOT and $GODOT ecosystem, various communication channels have been created for our identity owners where we’ve been continually analyzing/creating/building/evolving/implementing the changes in the godot movement* together and bridges have been built to improve our publicity and marketing. let’s take a closer look at each of them.
- secret council and other communication channels for identity owners
after 24 hours from the beginning of the public sale, we’ve opened the “secret-council” that only “identity of godot” owners can access. as of now, a total of 102 identity owners have verified themselves on our discord server.
besides the secret-council where the future and current steps of the godot movement are discussed; identity owners can also have the access to the alpha-godots channel where they can share other projects with valuable and meaningful concept and roadmap, the secret-announcements channel where only the announcements that concern identity owners will be made, the anarchy-vote and charity-vote channels where the reports and action recommendations of the country representatives will be shared.
in the future, other channels will continue to be added in line with the needs and demands of our identity owners.
- hiring an HR advisor and preparation of country/region representative application
if we were to treat godot movement* as a gigantic machine, country representatives would be one of its most vital cogs. for this reason, we take the process of reaching and selecting the suitable country representatives very seriously.
we believe that we have shown this seriousness by reaching architect of godot 8, a career management specialist and HR advisor, and making her a part of our team and consulting her.
together with her, we wrote the country/region representative job description, which is the most suitable for our philosophy and roadmap, and determined the report format we expect from the candidates.
we presented the resulting application draft to our identity owners on the same day that this report was shared. after their comments and contributions, we aim to finalize the application form this week and share it with the whole world. we aim to keep the application form active for two weeks in order to reach as many people as possible and to chose the most suitable representatives.
after two weeks, we aim to elect suitable representatives and interview them with our HR consultant. after the interview, if there is more than one candidate in a region or country, we will also take the opinions of our identity owners, taking into account the choice of our consultant.
we will then receive the first reports and pay 50 USDT per report that meets our criteria. we aim to increase this payment in the future and only pay with $GODOT in the mid-term.
our identity owners will read through the reports, talk and discuss about them and chose the most urgent problem to act on it. remember, %5 of “the vault of godot” will be spent for curing/helping that chosen problem, regularly.
we will be sharing the updates about the process both in weekly reports and on our discord channel.
- first steps of $GODOT and GODOTeconomics
in the current NFT space, we can say that the number of projects that don’t have a “utility tokens” is almost non-existent. so we are very sensitive about three issues when creating a unique token and ecosystem for godot movement:
1-not to create an utility token just to be able to say “we have utility token”
2-create an ecosystem suitable for the philosophy and concept of our project.
3- spending extra time on developing the technical/security infrastructure and not rushing the R&D process.
therefore; considering these criterias, our developer team spent the last week for researching the most logical/suitable blockchain network for godot movement and decided to create the $GODOT token in ERC-20 standards and on the ETH network.
within the path of our current goals, we have decided that identities will be the most advantageous entities in terms of obtaining/gaining the $GODOT tokens. (repeat; identities, not identity owners)
we decided to make $GODOT token the only currency that will be valid in our merchandise store and to develop farming mechanisms that include various gamifications that related to our lore.
it is also among our plans in this ecosystem to design $GODOT award-winning treasure hunts where only identities with specific traits can participate, and a mechanism/UI that identity owners can send $GODOT to country/region representatives as a tip for their reports.
we will discuss and deep dive in the decisions taken and the updates/changes made during the technical process in “weekly dev update” reports, which we will share with you on a weekly basis and will be shared this week as well.
- building bridges for publicity and marketing
as the godot who is writing these lines (founder of godot #1), I hate the political and self-interested ties and relationships during the marketing and publicity process. but as you can see, we have some shortcomings in this fields and we are doing our best to make up for it.
we are still researching and communicating with some of the most suitable candidates to assist us with these two fields specifically and there are three things we pay attention to when choosing these people:
1-being sure that they understand our philosophy and concept and genuinely believe/love it.
2-not being paid chiller/promoter.
3-understanding that what the fuck is going on in the NFT space. (marketing/publicity-wise specifically)
we continue to search and connect with the best candidates who meet these three criteria. we welcome your advices and suggestions in this regard.
as godot movement, we are taking strong and precise steps towards creating a unique brand and building the United Communities of the Metaverse that listens and acts on the agonies of world with the support of our identity owners. we hope, believe and know that; more exciting developments and updates await us.
until then; stay godot and keep following the little shiny red circle. ⭕️
