Just a few points from the team.
We’re we’re building a financial platform, accessible to all. For trading, investing, saving, fundraising etc.
Someone that downloads SONAR and funds it with Kado won’t even know they're "on Cosmos". To give you an idea of the power that SONAR will bring, you can restore a MetaMask seed to SONAR and withdraw USDC from MooonBeam to SONAR in one tap. It's really a game changer.
As mentioned a huge focus for us as soon as the wallet is out is onboard as many people as humanly possible. It's quite important to have this done via SONAR though as we can do billboards and other advertising and have a QR code so we can track the effectiveness of various campaigns, events etc.
So with regards to Kujira and what we’re building (A financial platform right. For trading, investing, saving, fundraising etc). That’s the “what” and not the “why” or “how”.
- WHAT: We exist to give retail customers access to financial products and services previously reserved for whales and elites (had this nailed for a while now).
- HOW: We do this by providing a beautiful and intuitive set of products that makes setting up accounts, funding them, and participating in the financial ecosystem as simple as possible.
- WHY: This is achieved thanks to blockchain technology, made simple with Tendermint, the Cosmos SDK, and all the tooling around it.
In terms of BD efforts, as mentioned the efforts will be all around education & onboarding to the Kujira ecosystem via SONAR: Events, hackathons, university / society talks and meetups, billboards and other on the ground advertising.
That Kujira amplifier channel is working, and it would be great to know if any writers and other content creators would be keen to work with us on creating blog content for the Ecosystem site, as well as other bits of content for social media etc.
The wallet will make a big difference cause it’s not “hey go and try learn about these 20 different web dApps”, but simply “create an account, fund it from anywhere, and get going in DeFi".
This really is the key. We had to build the ecosystem before doing this, so it’s really just a next natural step.
It would be great if we can all also stop the comparisons to other projects, and even the shitposting about Cosmos in general. Kujira is not a "Cosmos" project. We use the tooling, and do so happily, but besides using the SDK, we're not bound by anything, and Terra proved that a project that happens to be built on Cosmos doesn't have to be bound by other Cosmos projects or players in any way.
We get that there is a flat feeling around the Cosmos at the moment, but this is all just peak bear stuff. Popular Twitter accounts starting to capitulate and people are getting worn down by the bear.
Just remember this stuff does turn around, and we keep growing and building.
