An interactive governance game that teaches decentralized governance through creating DAOs, submitting proposals, and earning reputation points, aiding users like digital artists in managing assets and building communities.

The SocialFi Polis Challenge is an interactive governance game built on www.axmc.xyz. It provides users with a hands-on learning experience in decentralized governance and decision-making.

In the game players engage in governance tasks like creating DAOs, submitting proposals, and aligning with community members, all while gaining reputation points and understanding the intricacies of building and managing Web3 communities or projects.

An Artist's Journey: Meet Emma, a digital artist.

Emma starts by showcasing her art in an NFT marketplace, where initially, it’s more about building visibility than earning royalties. Over time, as her art gains traction and network usage increases, more users in the digital landscape begin to interact with her artwork — not just viewing it, but reusing it in virtual environments or marketing campaigns.

This opens up opportunities for Emma to generate royalties from the art being reused in the ecosystem, thanks to platforms like Farcaster.

Realizing the potential, Emma needs to build an efficient business structure to manage these new income streams and protect her online reputation.

Through the SocialFi Polis Challenge, she can:

  1. Learn while creating a Modular DAO: Emma forms her own Artist DAO, where she can oversee the usage of her artwork, manage royalties, and govern how others can interact with her creations.

  2. Build a Reputation System: The game allows Emma to track her reputation based on how her art is used. Users who contribute to the growth of her community or support her can earn points within her DAO.

  3. Form Partnerships: As her reputation grows, Emma can team up with other artists or creators, forming alliances to enhance exposure and income streams.

  4. AI-Powered Decision Making: The AI algorithm offers Emma insights into different governance models, royalty structures, and partnership opportunities, helping her make informed decisions as her business grows.

Project Overview

The SocialFi Polis Challenge enables users like Emma to explore, learn, and master decentralized governance by building modular DAOs and engaging with reputation systems. The game teaches users to leverage assets and community objectives to maximize autonomy in the Web3 ecosystem. Key features include:

  1. Interactive Governance Learning: Real-world scenarios like Emma’s are turned into engaging gameplay, where users make governance decisions that impact their reputation and income streams.

  2. Modular DAOs: Players like Emma can build and customize DAOs to manage assets, reputation, and community growth. Reputation System: Users earn and track reputation based on contributions, aligning with others to grow their influence.

3)AI Decision-Making Algorithm: An integrated AI helps users optimize governance strategies by suggesting DAO structures, partnerships, and community engagement models.

Problem Statement Managing assets, reputation, and governance in the Web3 ecosystem can be daunting for creators and businesses unfamiliar with decentralized technologies.

The SocialFi Polis Challenge provides a gamified and educational environment where users learn how to:

  1. Build and manage DAOs tailored to their needs.

  2. Make governance decisions that reflect the costs and profits of autonomy.

  3. Collaborate with others to leverage community resources.

Solution The SocialFi Polis Challenge empowers users like Emma to:

  1. Create and Govern DAOs: Establish their own governance structures, manage assets, and engage in decision-making processes.

  2. Learn Governance Strategies: Gain practical insights into how decentralized governance works, using real-world scenarios powered by AI-based learning tools.

  3. Manage Reputation: Develop an on-chain reputation system that reflects contributions and enhances decision-making influence.
