ROI does not add up. Naye for now.
Will wait and see of Indy500 promotion brings any notable attention to DOT and then will reconsider this vote.
Hello from Polkadotters.
Inter Miami is one of the biggest brands worldwide besides European giants Real Madrid, FC Barcelona or Manchester City. The number of social followers has skyrocketed since Leo Messi, one of the biggest marketing brands on the planet, joined Inter Miami. But it was huge enough even before, the impact of David Beckham’s ownership became evident. David had a great impact on the football/soccer field and was also off the field as an owner and businessman.
This deal is for 1,5 years and due to the info that the main sponsor on the match dress was not possible, we think it's a great chance to get exposure via many different social networks. It’s almost not about the people who visit the match and see the logo, but rather the social media impact of the brand itself.
Some might disagree that brand awareness for a blockchain sponsoring a US-based sports club is relevant. But in our eyes, the more interesting part of this deal, or even better to call it a partnership, is the technology integration. Not just the lending page within polkadot.com, but also direct fan engagement using Polkadot tech, such as wallets, NFT marketplace & minting tools, or maybe even further implementation. Plus Polkadot will have tickets and merch for all kinds of contests, which will drive the excitement.
With experienced management by ORSEN's sports marketing team in Miami, this partnership is poised to deliver significant value and impact for the Polkadot ecosystem. And even though we understand there will be comparisons to Tezos and how the sponsorship with Manchester United helped them, still we think this is a good step.
The main goal of this partnership is in our eyes to handover the successful story of Inter Miami & Polkadot tech connection. That’s why we are in favor of this proposal.
I'v been intentionally ignoring a lot of what goes on in opengov ever since ref 102 was rejected. But this, will go down as the worst spending decision in the history of opengov.
think carefully:
those who go to watch the game, watch polkadot on some of the jersey/ training/ some post etc
then what? How much people will look for what it is, and that will end it all, it is not something that they can buy, it is not a product.
It is a chain for others to develop things on top of the chain
the market does not fit 😅
Even if is for real Madrid or barcelona , i dont think this is the path that we should take, for a blockchain.
