Proposal to Integrate $CLOUD into Sanctum’s Upcoming Retail App
We currently use $CLOUD for governance, but nobody said its utility should be limited to just one dimension. Sanctum is developing a fun app that gamifies the staking experience, so I believe it makes sense to expand $CLOUD’s role into the in-app ecosystem as well. This aligns $CLOUD holders with a more engaging and playful experience.
Ideas for Utility:
$CLOUD stakers generate Pet Points
Pet Points can be used to buy food, unlock new pets, purchase cosmetics, and other in-game items.
ps : Imagine that the pets can wear a hat, eat certain food to evolve, etc
$CLOUD as a currency for premium items
Players can spend $CLOUD to buy custom or legendary skins, accessories, or new pets.
Example : Bought my pet legendary fire wizard hat to show off
$CLOUD to boost APY
Allow $CLOUD holders to temporarily boost staking APY by a fixed percentage, adding strategic value to long-term holders.
example : Giving your pets a cup of coffee can boost APY a little in certain period of time
Well I believe just this little gesture can benefit the community and CLOUD believer as a whole. New user can learn about $CLOUD and get exposure to it in a fun engaging way.
This is a short proposal and can be refined further by the community and the team. The core idea is to align incentives between $CLOUD holders and the broader Sanctum meta, while increasing engagement and participation.
Hey I like your ideas of utilitizing $cloud, but I think crypto people nowadays only care about one thing and one thing only: can I earn profit from it or not ?!
What can the pet/pet points do ? why do I want to level it up or make it cute ? evolving pet u said so it’s like an upgradable NFT ?
IMO, staking was already a problem with the futarchy approach. We should at least have a basic staking design to minimize the selling pressure THEN we can start to brain storm new ideas.
I think this apps not for profit maximizer, but for normies who want to enjoy the easy staking experience and gamified it, so thats why I think having this fun approach worth to try
I like the idea of a CLOUD economy where you earn CLOUD for long-term usage of the app, and then you can stake CLOUD or spend your CLOUD on cosmetic items for the pets!
We have to discuss with the team to see how much build effort this will take.
I think we all can agree that the original Wonderland game was well received and the leveling up was fun. I’d go back to those roots and provide infrequent boosts to the staking yield when certain tasks are accomplished.. let those who loyally and continously staked CLOUD reach amazingly high levels and let their pets become true heros and icons!
I like this. That staking score we have could be put to better use and a game/gamified experience seems like an obvious use for it.
I’d go even further and have CLOUD staking and holding INF both contribute something to levelling up.
The whole LST/staking thing is so clearly an idle game mechanic anyway.
