Who we are
DAOrayaki is a decentralized media platform built on the Nostr protocol. DAOrayaki builds various essential decentralized media components to effectively connect funders, creators, curators and readers so that they can freely create, curate, publish and report on various topics.
DAOrayaki was established in February 2021, initiated by DAOONE core members and industry OGs, and our journey saw the support of different well known ecological grants, such as DoraFactory, BNB Grant DAO, Gitcoin GR-11, Hashkey Group et.al. Since its establishment, DAOrayaki has focused on exploring the ways of building a fully functional decentralized media (check links 1 & 2 below for details), which includes:
- Decentralized funding;
- Decentralized editorial board;
- Decentralized creations & reviewing;
- Decentralized curations;
- Research prediction markets based on Futarchy mechanism;
- Community governance, and
- Other media functions.
Our mission
To empower people, we must decentralize information and secure freedom of speech.
“Inform, Inspire, Innovate”
We are solving
- Limited freedom due to the censorship efforts;
- Preferred desires and intentions over the platforms;
- Interests and ownership monopolization;
- Community members isolation (funders, creators, readers).
Key components
- Anti-censorship publishing: Ensuring content tamper-proof and preventing user privacy leakage based on storage and signing of the decentralized social protocol Nostr;
- Delegated review: For funding content, any/specific community member can be empowered to do reviewing democratically and independently;
- Joint curations: community members freely create topics, and carry out curation and governance in the form of DAO;
- Free publishing: Construct multiple IP publishing agreements to assist in the publication of curated content and realization of the ownership economy;
- Decentralized funding: aggregate multiple financing and funding mechanisms, and connect curators, funders, creators and readers through DAO;
What we seek
We are seeking an amount of $50k for a duration of 4 months involved in the following uses:
Based on the decentralized social network protocol Nostr, we are seeking to develop the following decentralized media functions:
