  4. CAPX 4 A common phenomenon across web3 projects is how products have leveraged the power of community using innovative incentive mechanisms to build and scale their products. I N T R O D U C T I O N Cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin & Ethereum accrued value over the years only because of their strong core belief and the overpowering network effects. 2010 2014 2018 2022 0.37 26 367 935 2016 2018 2020 2022 0.012 21 66 143 Addresses holding BTC (in Millions) Addresses holding ETH (in Millions)
  5. CAPX 5 Why do most dApps struggle in growing a healthy community and gain early traction and engagement? Incentive Alignment There’s a lack of user incentive alignment mechanisms, that is ways to build "skin in the game" for early users and community members before a token launch. Network Effects Web3 products rely on network effects for success, which means their value increases as more people use them. Building these network effects from the ground up, however, can be difficult. Awareness Many people are still unaware of the various dApps and their potential use cases, so educating users is a key priority for projects to attract an active user base. 001 002 003 C H A L L E N G E S
  6. CAPX 6 There are hundreds of tokens that have great utility but no community, thus failing to accrue any value. On the contrary, there are many tokens with no utility but great distribution and thus hold a lot of value. DISTRIBUTION + UTILITY > UTILITY D I S T R I B U T I O N T H E S I S
  7. CAPX 8 Projects in 2015-2017 era, when VC funding was scarce, distributed tokens to communities in their early stages. The reason why Ethereum, Polygon, Solana, Polkadot have strong communities is not just because they have strong products or they spend money on marketing, it is fundamentally because millions of people have made money investing in these cryptocurrencies. Whereas today, most of the early supporters in any project buy the top. This kills the community as the community loses faith in the project. Ethereum $0.31 450,222% Polygon $0.002 49,475% Solana $0.22 7600% Polkadot $0.29 1741% % Increase since launch as of 10/03/23 D I S T R I B U T I O N T H E S I S
  8. CAPX 9 Before launching a token, it's critical to focus on building a strong community foundation to propel your project for the long-term. The key initial stakeholders of a dApp project are the early users engaging with the application.

  9. CAPX 10 It's challenging to create a vibrant and engaged community. It becomes even more difficult without creating some form of skin-in-the-game for the community. It gets much easier to do that if there is a way to incentivise early users and adopters to use the product. Optimising token distribution by targeting high-value users right from the start is an effective strategy to ensure that the network is populated with quality users rather than speculators We’re seeing ownership go towards those creating meaningful value for a product, community or protocol… We’re noticing a clear intention to put tokens directly into the hands of those who are consistently creating value for a given network.

  10. CAPX 11 All this in the pre token launch phase when the project isn't ready to have a publicly traded token. Incentive Alignment Network Effects Awareness 001 002 003 How do we align the interests of early adopters to keep them engaged and convert them to a loyal community? How do we accelerate the process of building network effects? How do we educate users about the product and token utility? ​ P R O B L E M A T H A N D
  11. CAPX 12 • • • • • An IOU token is a pre-launch token distributed among the community for their time & effort invested into the system. IOUs are non-transferable and non-tradable. Users will earn IOUs directly in their wallet based on the quests they complete for the protocol. IOU tokens mimic the function of actual tokens - thereby encouraging participation & contribution of the early adopters who use and engage with the product. IOU tokens are an efficient way for projects to design desirable human behaviour and bootstrap the network by incentive alignment IOU Token IOUs will be redeemable 1:1 for the original token, post launch. 1:1 I N N O V A T I O N
  12. CAPX 13 "The basic idea is - Early on during the bootstrapping phase when network effects haven’t kicked in, provide users with financial utility via token rewards to make up for the lack of native utility.

  13. CAPX 14 • • • • • Align incentives among network participants Overcome the bootstrapping problem Accelerate network effects from the outset. A large number of token holders at token launch means an accelerated path to exchange listings. Integrate IOUs into the product to educate the community about the token utility and mimic the actual token’s function even before the token is live. To Projects • • • • • Reduce customer acquisition costs More efficient model than traditional sales and marketing efforts Convert already-existing users into power users by using rewards to deepen their retention Use IOUs incentives to encourage and reward desired behaviours. IOUs provide a novel way to shape user behaviour in a network, offering ways to predict and engineer new consumer behaviours. To Founding Teams B E N E F I T S
  14. CAPX 15 "There are a lot of businesses in the world that want people to learn about their business, and they actually are incentivised to pay people to learn about that stuff to build the top of the funnel for employees, contractors, customers - you just need to educate the world about your product. Enabling large-scale simple to use micropayments for this kind of value flow, is going to completely change how businesses think about user acquisition across a range of verticals.

  15. CAPX 16 • • The Capx App allows protocols to issue IOUs to their community members in a gamified way, designating token allocations to high-value members for their engagement, even before a public token launch. Projects can list quests that they want their users to perform for which they’ll be rewarded with IOU Tokens. These tasks could be both on-chain and off-chain tasks. Capx App S O L U T I O N c c
