Stargaze: ATOM Creators Fund

To address the need for new use cases for the ATOM token and increase its visibility in the NFT space, AADAO has awarded Stargaze a $50,000 grant. Stargaze, a prominent platform in the Cosmos ecosystem and a cultural hub with connections to other large NFT networks, will use this grant to establish ATOM as a mint denomination.

The grant will fund key initiatives including implementing ATOM as a mint currency on Stargaze and launching a four-week campaign called “Atom August.” During this campaign, all Stargaze Featured projects will mint NFTs using ATOM, and high-profile creators will be incentivized to produce exclusive collections. Additionally, marketing and outreach efforts will promote the use of ATOM for minting.

This project aims to drive ATOM’s adoption in the NFT market, create new cultural and marketing value, and foster a vibrant community around ATOM-minted collections. By leveraging Stargaze’s influence and its connections to broader NFT communities, the grant will help establish ATOM as a significant player in the NFT space.
