  • Targeting plan: Leverage partnerships with key opinion leaders, targeted social media campaigns, and community engagement events.

Market:

  • Competitive advantage: Unlike competitors, Insights provides a comprehensive platform that combines prediction markets, real-time news aggregation, and a community-driven approach to financial advice.

Insights vs. KOLRadar vs. TweetScout

  • Automated Tools: Provides users with automated predictive analytics and ROI calculations to aid in investment decisions.
  • User Focused: Designed to meet the needs of individual investors, offering direct and actionable insights rather than broad qualitative ratings.
  • Predict to Earn Model: Engages users by allowing them to earn rewards based on accurate predictions, enhancing user retention and attracting high-quality KOLs.
    Conclusion: Insights stands out by offering a product that is essential for individual investors who need reliable, data-driven insights to make informed investment decisions. By focusing solely on historical KOL performance and providing advanced automated tools, Insights eliminates noise and subjective metrics, ensuring users receive accurate and valuable investment advice.

Target Social Media Platforms and Crypto Forums:

  • Platforms: Twitter, Telegram, and Discord. We aim to attract KOLs&users from these platforms.
  • Content Production (content about predictions & exposure on public website and channels): Engaging posts, infographics, video tutorials, and market analysis articles.

User Referral Incentives:

  • Incentives: Referral bonuses in the form of Platform Points or exclusive access to premium features.
  • Tracking and Rewards: We will use referral codes and track metrics through the platform’s backend to ensure accurate reward distribution.

Webinars and AMAs:

  • Topics: Platform features, market trends, KOL insights.

    High-Level Campaign Plans:
  • Pre-Launch: Build anticipation through teaser content, KOL endorsements, and early access invites.
  • Launch Phase: Intensive social media campaigns, referral program activation, and high-profile webinars.
  • Post-Launch: Continuous content production (prediction on website & exposure on open website&channels), community engagement activities, and feedback integration for platform improvements.

Technology:

  • Core technology: Decentralized prediction market integrated with real-time data aggregation, AI analysis and community engagement tools.

Stage of the project: Pre-revenue, focusing on user growth and community engagement.

Security: We plan to conduct a full code audit before the official launch of Phase II.

ECOSYSTEM FIT

Benefit to Conflux Ecosystem:

  • By integrating with Conflux, Insights will increase on-chain activities through prediction markets and token transactions. The platform will also drive meaningful user interactions, as users participate in predictions and engage with financial content.

  • The platform will continuously attract users through the functional capabilities of its prediction product and leverage user data to onboard KOLs and project partners. Subsequently, by increasing the incentive weighting for Conflux-related content in both the prediction and news sections, the platform aims to boost exposure, enhance recognition, and positively impact the token price within the Conflux ecosystem.

  • Predict2Earn Details: The platform will extract price prediction tweets from KOLs on Twitter, capturing the cryptocurrency and price at the time of the tweet. KOLs can manually stop the prediction once the price reaches their target, displaying the ROI. The platform scores the overall ROI of KOLs, rewarding them with tokens, and providing value to users through these insights.

Economic Benefit:

  • This grant will facilitate the launch of our platform leading to increased asset transactions and user activities on the Conflux chain through our onchain trading bots.
  • Long-term Engagement: Initially, Insights will operate as an off-chain community-driven product. In later stages, the platform will introduce trading bots and other derivative tools to facilitate more on-chain transactions and increase TVL on the Conflux network.

GROWTH PROPOSAL

Grant Plan:

  • Platform Enhancement: Develop and refine the Insights platform.
  • User Acquisition: Target crypto communities and financial analysts through marketing campaigns and partnerships.
  • Community Engagement: Host events, webinars, and AMAs to drive user interaction and engagement.

Users Acquisition:

  • Focus on crypto enthusiasts, financial analysts, and KOLs who can provide valuable insights and predictions.

Identifying and Engaging with KOLs:

  • Identification: We will identify KOLs through social media analysis, looking for individuals with significant followings and engagement in the crypto and financial sectors.
  • Engagement: We will engage KOLs by offering exclusive access to platform features, higher visibility for their predictions, and token-based incentives.
  • KOLs choose our platform because it is a unique, product-based traffic hub developed from the everyday needs we experience as individual investors. However, there has been a lack of such products in the market. Our Predict to Earn model provides users with valuable insights into the performance of KOLs, aiding in their investment decisions. This not only helps attract and retain users but also gives KOLs a strong incentive to collaborate with us.

Very interesting proposal! I see that you already have a working website and documentation here

I’d like to ask a couple of more questions to further understand how Insights aligns with the Conflux Grants Program, and benefits Conflux Network:

  1. Do you have an architecture for how the prediction market will be deployed on
    Conflux?
  2. What is the user registration process in Milestone 1?
  3. Can anyone give predictions?
  4. Do you have a design of how the predictions market looks like?
  5. How will the incentive model work for Conflux-related content?
  6. How will Insights increase on-chain activities on Conflux?

Looking forward to hearing more from the team! Hopefully you can share some mockups of the predictions market as well!

Hi Chris, thanks a lot for your response!!
Below are our answers to your questions. If you have any further inquiries, please feel free to contact us at any time.

Q1: Do you have an architecture for how the prediction market will be deployed on Conflux?
A1: Yes, we have a detailed architecture plan for deploying the prediction market on Conflux eSpace. The platform will leverage Conflux’s fast and scalable blockchain infrastructure to handle the high volume of transactions and predictions. Smart contracts will be used to manage the prediction recording and reward distribution processes. The integration will ensure seamless on-chain interactions while maintaining security and efficiency.

Q2: What is the user registration process in Milestone 1?
A2: The user registration process in Milestone 1 will involve a simple sign-up mechanism where users can create an account using their social media accounts or Conflux eSpace wallet to participate in predictions. This process ensures secure and authenticated access to the platform’s features.

Q3: Can anyone give predictions?
A3: Yes, anyone can give predictions to encourage broad participation and engagement. However, predictions from verified KOLs will be highlighted for performance metrics, offering users a benchmark of reliability and accuracy. Over time, we will implement a reputation system to rank users based on their prediction history.

Q4: Do you have a design of how the prediction market looks like?
A4: Yes, we have initial design mockups for the prediction market. The design includes a user-friendly dashboard where users can view and make predictions, track their performance, and see aggregated news. For creating the prediction part, a simple and intuitive interface where users can input their predictions. Users can select cryptocurrency, specify the predicted price movement (up or down), and set the duration.
These mockups will be refined based on user feedback during the MVP stage.

Q5: How will the incentive model work for Conflux-related content?
A5: The incentive model will give higher weightage to Conflux-related content in both predictions and news sections. KOLs and users who provide valuable insights and accurate predictions about Conflux will receive higher token rewards. This approach not only incentivizes content creation focused on Conflux but also increases the platform’s utility within the Conflux ecosystem. The platform will not involve CFX tokens directly but will encourage their use through incentives and integration.

Q6: How will Insights increase on-chain activities on Conflux?
A6: The recording and rewarding of predictions will all occur on-chain as our next move, driving transactional volume. Additionally, users will log in using their eSpace wallets, further integrating their activities with Conflux. In later stages, the platform will introduce trading bots and other derivative tools, prioritizing deployment on Conflux chain to increase TVL and on-chain interactions.

Hey Lois, thanks for the answers. I have some follow-up questions

Reply to A1: Can you guys please share the architecture plan and the mock-ups in the proposal please? It would help the evaluation a lot.

Reply to A3: To better evaluate your Go-To-Market strategy, please provide more details on how you will identify and engage with KOLs, including specific benefits or incentives offered; the social media platforms and crypto forums you will target, and the type of content used; the specific incentives for user referrals and how you will track and reward them; the types of high-quality content you plan to produce, publication frequency, and channels used; the topics for webinars and AMAs, their frequency, and promotional strategies to ensure high attendance; details on who your target audience will be; and please share some high level campaign plans.

Reply to A5: For a user to be considered active, how frequently do they need to perform the listed user actions?

Reply to A8: I still believe that milestones could be adjusted in a way to better reflect the success of the project rather than the progress of the development, specially in Milestone 1. So I would suggest to further work on this.
