Inspiration
The Goated Gamer DAO is inspired by my upbringing! I was always a competitive kid playing video games. I've always been interested in competing in tournaments to win prizes. I know many others dream of doing that. Gaming today you see so many people streaming online and playing in front of crowds! The thought of having a DAO control games & rewards for the community makes me believe that this can become a special attraction to the Internet Computer.
What it does
The DAO is set up to give the holders control of the direction of the project. The holders select games for each tournament and the prizes. We also stream the big tournaments to attract more gamers to the community! Our community members are also supported through our streams, we will show their game play on our platforms! We will also be able to showcase Internet Computer Games on these platforms. Allowing our platform to essentially play ads for more projects on the Internet Computer.
How we built it
We have arranged our DAO through NFTs which will be fully functioning on our website after it's complete. For now, we will rely on YouTube & Twitch to stream our tournaments, we will also look to stream on our own website. We believe in doing so, we can attract a very large market to come check out what would eventually become the Goated Gamer League! This concept allows us to start forming our own leagues to host in the metaverse & in real life!

Challenges we ran into
Biggest challenges have been finding developers! So many developers have been on multiple projects. Some also just appeared shady online, so it's been tough to filter through who would be a good fit for our team. However, we just recently partnered with a team of developers on the Internet Computer. So now we will have the right team with us to build up the Goated Gamer Platform.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
So, prior to the Goated Gamer DAO we have helped nearly most of the projects in the ecosystem gain momentum. We have marketed over 50 projects since we've entered into the ICP ecosystem. It's been fun to work with so many talented developers!
We have also lined up some streaming partners for the Goated Gamer DAO to grow more excitement for our tournaments.
What we learned
Goated Gamers are still in the early stages of building, we have a long way to go before we complete the vision. What we learned is that it's best to keep close ties with other projects to communicate what works well and what doesn't. NFTs and crypto are still very new, we don't act like we know it all. We like to problem solve with other project leaders to find ideas on how to build better for the Internet Computer. Often times it's simply just monitoring social media to see what ecosystem members are saying or suggesting.
What's next for Goated Gamer DAO
Well, the Goated Gamers will need to execute the marketing plan to grow our community more. We will look to add team members. What's important for us is to continue to build a strong community behind us. Everyone has a chance to grow within our community. We've been confirmed to launch with Entrepot in July of 2022. We've been in talks with their team to get set up to mint our collection early July.
