New Dapp

##Proposal Description
Pozzle Planet is an “Impact to Earn’’ mobile first app being developed for web3.

We strive to make the world a better place and for this we have designed a social app where you can incentivize the participants to contribute through positive impacts every day and get rewarded.

Living sustainably as an individual today is difficult and unrewarding for most people. That’s why we’re creating Pozzle Planet, a fun and inspiring way to make a positive impact in your everyday life.

Earn POZ by joining and sharing planet positive actions with your friends via short-form video.

On the outside, a social app where people generate impact by sharing videos and earning rewards. Underneath the hood, an impact-Protocol and ReFi yield generator that passively farms people’s impact into NFTs called Pozzles that contain impact tokens (Impact2) which represent measurable impact units from the real world. - In Pozzle Planet, Staking POZ = Impact².

The Pozzle Planet mobile app sits at the intersection of 3 main growth trends in social, p2e gaming and DeFi, uniquely positioned as the first impact-2-earn social platform with tailwinds from increased individual and collective aspirations to be part of planet positive solutions.

Our token POZ is engineered for longevity, mainstream adoption and sustainable growth, through a tokenomic system with four core pillars; Proof Of Impact, Community Rewards based on Stake-To-Impact, Mainstream Utility, and Upwards Price Regulation.

We launched (testflight/firebase) mobile in Alpha v1.0 a month ago (28.08.2022) shipping to v.1.9 (07/10) with 250 test users, onboarding in waves from our +4K Discord community.

The Initial +30 days of launch have shown clear signs of engagement and retention ; +1,200 actions/pozzles have been added, +25% of downloads converted to Daily Active Users, and +70% of initial downloads were active in the last 7 days (data 07/09.2022).

##Alpha Features v1.8:
(1) Create or Connect Wallet - Onboarding

(2) User Profile/Passport - Details about users activity.

(3) For You Feed - Discover and view video activities

(4) Record - Start or join video activities to add Pozzles

(5) Community Validation - POZ reward base rate based on community validation

(6) POZ Pledging - Boost rewards for others

(7) POZ Rewards - Earn by doing activities

(8) POZ Pouch - In-app wallet for managing POZ and transaction story

Apart from the app launch we have received a grant from Toucan Protocol to integrate NCT tokens into our system, launched an Omnichain NFT collection Pozzlenauts (600+ holders) with in app utility and token vest, developed a new web page with staking and bonding apps ready for launch, and build +15 partnerships for cross promotion.

We are looking to accelerate development to launch on App Store and Google Play ultimo Q4 2022.
