Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hey everyone, I've got some good news to share here.
Earlier this year, the Ryan Fund formed and this was
an eighty million dollar fund that came about from Kadano
Treasury funding and Draper University. Dreper Dragon is all behind this.
It's all about looking for the next big projects that
are building our Caadano or attracting more talent into the

(00:22):
Kadana ecosystem, more developers, more projects, people that are looking
to additional funding and start building on the Kadana ecosystem
in general. And earlier this year, I came up with
an idea. This is something that I really want to
try and push and it is the Web three bounty platform.
I've seen this grow in the Solana ecosystem with super

(00:45):
Team and they're doing an amazing job there growing the
super Team ecosystem where projects can post up jobs and creators,
developers and general community members come in and fulfill those jobs.
Maybe something as easy as creating memes or creating videos,
or debugging code or participating in a test net, and

(01:08):
all those type of activities get paid for, so the
best ones that contribute to those particular campaigns get some
money from the platform itself. And I thought that was
a brilliant idea. I even participated in super Team to
see what it was like, and I actually really enjoyed it.
I made a couple of videos. I didn't win out

(01:29):
on those ones there, but I saw the valley here.
All the projects that participated in super Team got some
extra marketing, they got engagement, they got users onto their platform,
and the ones that won out, the ones that participated
got USD, they got funding, they got money for their participation.
And Kadana doesn't have anything like that, and I wanted

(01:51):
Kadano projects to experience what that was like. So I
created web three Bounties. Now this is the platform here
at the moment. You may have seen posting about it,
and it's still on test net at the moment, but
I really wish I had something like this to entice
people to come along and actually test the platform itself.
I'm at the stage where a lot of projects are

(02:13):
that needs users to come on board and give feedback,
report issues and whatnot, such as report issue here from
their experience, so I could see what it's like, what
I need to improve and what I need to change.
And if I had this platform up and running, I
would actually use my own platform to incentivize users to
go through sprints, weekly sprints and say hey, let's submit

(02:35):
some issues here, let's get things fixed and improved, and
then come back in a couple of weeks and do
that again and again and again until we have a
really refined product. So this is what I'm building, guys.
This is what got accepted into the Draper Dragon of
Ryan fund Genesis program and what I'll be refining and

(02:55):
working on over the next four weeks when I'm over
in San Francisco to to build out for the Kadana
ecosystem and then take wider and take it further. I've
got a lot of plans for this one here, and
if you want to experience and learn what's going on,
how I'm building things, what I'm doing with it, make
sure you hit that subscribe button. Guys. I'm going to

(03:16):
take you on a whole journey here so you can
experience what I'm doing some of the things that I'm learning.
I can't talk about everything. I can't talk about the
program itself from Drapery or the other projects specifically, but
I can talk about the experience and what I'm taking
out of it and implementing in the Web three bounties platform,
So come along for the ride, guys, make sure you

(03:39):
hit that like subscribe notification belt. I just want to
thank everyone that supported me over the last four or
five years of being in the Cadana ecosystem. I finally
got something that's worth working for and hopefully you guys
come along for the ride and benefit from it as well. Anyway, guys,
thank you for support here that thumbs up on your
way out and stay positive and I'll see you in

(03:59):
the next eight
