Three ways to become a datapreneur: Dor Traffic Miner Edition.
Constellation wants to activate the multi-dimensional value of crypto. Because crypto isn’t just finance. It’s data that constructs a network of information and communities, until it becomes an infrastructure of people conducting business, completing transactions, meeting other people.
In an ongoing series, we’re going to show you how you can use Constellation products to discover the datapreneur inside you and engage with crypto in innovative ways.
First up: the Dor Traffic Miner.
1. Purchase your Dor Traffic Miner (DTM), a hard-working data device.
We’re re-opening DTM sales March 4–6. You can purchase yours with DAG or LTX.
The first-of-its-kind DTM connects foot-traffic data with crypto rewards, so it theoretically exists in two places at once. Stick the battery-operated device above any doorway, and it starts collecting data. The crypto connection means it also exists as a node that verifies and stores data on the Constellation Network.
The DTM takes the data and provides insights and analytics to understand not what happens around you but why. You have total ownership and custody over the data, so you can keep it, sell it — it’s up to you.
2. Create earning opportunities with smart DTM placements.
We have a saying about data: if you get data no one has, it’s valuable. Your data is yours — that makes it unique. Since the DTM doesn’t have a camera and isn’t intrusive, you have more placement possibilities. Get creative.
Some tips to help you strategically place your DTM:
Think about what insights you could gain at home. Are there efficiency issues, like optimizing the use of electricity, gas, or water? Frequency of use of specific bathrooms? Entry and exit out of a particular door?
What data are you willing to sell? Your data can be aggregated into data sets and you can sell it to organizations and even non-profits. Constellation can help you find and choose partners.
3. Participate in bounties.
Companies often seek data sets in aggregate, and Constellation will offer rewards with these opportunities. Your participation offers a dual benefit: it increases node support on the network, and your contribution as a member of the community.
There’s a datapreneur inside you.
Though you won’t have your Dor Traffic Miner in-hand until later this year, bounties and other rewards will be in play quickly via the NFT that you hold as a receipt to exchange for your device.
You’re a datapreneur now, with months ahead to think about the big question: where will you put your Dor Traffic Miner?
Missed out on DTM sales last month? You can purchase one from a limited supply using DAG or LTX from March 4 — March 6. Keep an eye on Twitter for the official announcement.
