Boson Protocol Community Update #6
Friday 16th April, 2021
Hello Bosonauts!
Community update number 6 is right here! It’s hard to believe it’s been twelve weeks since we started this series, so much has happened and we are all so excited for the future here at Boson Protocol. We are set up for success and won’t settle for anything less.
As always, there’s lots of great news in here but even more coming up in the coming days and weeks — so be sure to follow our Medium page, Telegram and Twitter to always be up to date.
Read on for the latest happenings within Boson Protocol…
Highlight of the fortnight
$BOSON Public Sale successfully completed with $25.8m raised
Last week, we closed our public token distribution, and we were blown away by over 9000 bidders contributing 25.8million USD to fund the development of the Boson Protocol.
Boson Protocol is designed to fight for the future of dCommerce and the rights of individuals and companies, their relationships, value, and data to benefit all, not to be ‘leveraged’ just for the advantages of the big guys. It is what we believe in and why we exist.
The token sale is the way we can ask the community to support that vision and help fund this change, for the greater good and bringing it to reality in terms of a fairer, more trustless, and capture-resistant decentralized Commerce ecosystem in the near future.
.
Following the closure of the auction, we are delighted to share the following milestones:
Total volume of bids: 55.2m $USDT
Final clearing price: 4.3 $USDT
Total number of bids: 9280
Average bid size: 5948 $USDT
18 months ago our project was an ambitious dream. We persevered through “crypto winter” and came out stronger on the other side. We couldn’t be more pleased with the support we have received from the community. Our mission to decentralize commerce is only just getting started.
Latest Partnerships
NiftyKey, powered by Boson Protocol, announces new partnership with Krowd
Boson Protocol is delighted to announce that NiftyKey, the Boson powered crypto rewards platform, will collaborate in partnership with Krowd, the loyalty and incentivisation Offer Bidding platform.
Data is at the heart of loyalty and a key part of Boson Protocol’s and NiftyKey’s mission to create a data economy for everyone and is directly aligned with Krowd’s key objective to use data to recognise opportunities and create more value for consumers, retailers and partner programmes alike. Consumers will be in control of their data and if they make it available for consumption and re-use, they could benefit from further incentives and rewards.
Krowd will look to leverage the unique capability of NiftyKey NFT Commitment Tokens to avoid ‘double dipping’ of offers when a consumer registers the same offer from more than one programme provider, increasing the accuracy of targeting and avoiding unnecessary revenue dilution for its partners.

We specifically want NiftyKey to connect with technology leaders in the loyalty and rewards space to leverage its advantages and extend their capabilities as a way of doing business better.
In LJI we have a partner already with the advanced technology platform to really capitalise on the different processes and mechanics available via NiftyKey and the underlying Boson Protocol for our joint clients.
They will help brands create new customer value propositions, sourcing member benefits from across a network ecosystem confident in the knowledge that the transaction and end user benefit is secured and a positive customer experience is ensured
The unique capabilities of blockchain for offer and voucher management via NFTs combined with an open architected, flexible loyalty platform means that together NiftyKey and LJI can offer clients the ability to address the demanding needs of ‘crypto-native’ type audiences as they look for Trust, Control and Ownership of their benefits.

Community News
Boson Guardians — community rewards program launch
Community support for our token sale, and the future of Boson Protocol is pivotal if we are to succeed, and therefore we wanted to find a way of thanking those that commit their trust, and economic might behind what we stand for.
This is why we have created the Boson Guardians program — a thank you to our earliest and most loyal supporters, to show that we need and appreciate their help and understand that we are here to serve the community, not ourselves.
Holding $BOSON tokens may be an investment for some, but it also drives our success and therefore we will both reward holders contributions and recognise their commitment and achievements. Based not just on how many tokens you hold, but how long you have held them we will drop token rewards, starting with a six-month minimum tenure to provide a thank you and a yield for token holders.
Make sure to check out the full rewards program now.
