BACKGROUND

Writing Is Important:

Writing is a core competency in the asynchronous, decentralized, and remote web3 world.

Building an online presence and showcasing your skills/abilities through a writing portfolio creates opportunities for people working in a digital environment.

But, Writing Is Difficult:

Writing online is hard.

It’s lonely, intimidating, and tough to stay consistent.

Cohort-Based Writing Programs Solve This:

Cohort-based writing programs are an effective and tested way to build relationships, facilitate publishing, and level up.

Through Taptive’s writing-focused cohort-based course, BanklessDAO members will have the opportunity to learn and hone this fundamental skill, put it to action through publishing, and further connect with members of BanklessDAO through the cohort process.

Taptive has run over 25 cohort-based writing programs helping writers publish 1,000+ essays.

In addition, Taptive has run 3 cohorts with BanklessDAO.

Over the course of these cohorts, the community has published 159 essays. These essays have led to thousands of impressions for the DAO on Twitter and elsewhere, it has facilitated the sharing of BanklessDAO-aligned content with an audience that may not have otherwise been exposed to this content.

Through these cohorts, we’ve also built an email list of over 250 potentially interested cohort participants (which we will activate again with each new cohort).

Finally, during these cohorts, we’ve hosted 12 live Zoom writing workshops that furthered DAO relationships through feedback and discussion.

MISSION & VALUES ALIGNMENT

A BanklessDAO writing-focused cohort-based course will help further BanklessDAO’s mission to onboard 1 billion people to crypto.

The program will also educate more people about Web3/crypto. Clear writing is clear thinking. By helping BanklessDAO members to write, they will advance their own Web3 knowledge. With peer feedback integrated into the program, writers will learn from giving/receiving feedback.

And with a focus on publishing content, the cohort will create more crypto-related content on the internet.
