HIP-003 HTX DAO Ambassador Program——Monthly Budget Mechanism for Online & Offline Activities
I. Proposal Background
To further advance the global expansion and community cohesion of HTX DAO, the organization has officially launched the “Ambassador Program.” This initiative is designed to support key community members from around the world to represent HTX DAO in governance, conduct online and offline promotional activities, establish localized community hubs, and promote the spirit of decentralization.
To effectively foster HTX DAO’s community environment and enhance global engagement and cohesion, it is essential to introduce a clear budget support mechanism that ensures sustainable execution of activities and long-term brand development.
II. Proposal Objective
This proposal aims to establish a “Monthly Ambassador Activity Budget Mechanism,” allowing eligible ambassadors who have completed their core responsibilities to apply for monthly funding. The budget can be used to plan and execute localized online or offline community engagement events (e.g., meetups, themed salons, joint AMAs, Web3 educational sessions, etc.).
Through this mechanism, ambassadors are encouraged to independently initiate and host HTX DAO-branded activities that reflect their local culture and community traits. The initiative promotes a model of “decentralized collaboration + empowered autonomy + outcome evaluation,” further expanding HTX DAO’s global community influence and brand awareness.
III. Execution Mechanism
1) Eligibility Criteria:
- Must have passed the HTX DAO Ambassador selection and completed at least one month of evaluation tasks;
- Must have stable access to local community resources or partners;
- Must have no record of violations and a solid performance history.
2) Application Process:
- A budget application window will be opened once per month;
- Ambassadors must submit an “Event Proposal,” including the event theme, format, detailed budget, target audience, expected outcomes, and promotional plan;
- Proposals will be reviewed and approved by the HTX DAO Committee. Upon approval, funds will be disbursed.
3) Budget Scope:
- The budget for a single event must be within 800 USDT equivalent;
- Funds can be used for venue rental, catering, event materials, setup, photography/videography, and promotional efforts;
- Personal expenses unrelated to the event are strictly prohibited. A detailed reimbursement report and post-event summary must be submitted afterward.
IV. Budget Source
Funds for this proposal will be allocated from the HTX DAO operations budget. In the initial stage, up to four qualifying ambassador events per month will be supported to ensure efficient resource distribution and enable evaluation of the mechanism’s effectiveness.
V. Expected Outcomes
- Increase HTX DAO’s offline brand reach and community penetration, creating a closed-loop promotional ecosystem between online and offline channels;
- Activate Web3 communities in various regions and foster new collaborations with HTX DAO, identifying promising projects and strategic partners;
- Empower ambassadors with a stronger sense of initiative and belonging, establishing a global governance network driven by purpose and execution;
- Build a sustainable framework for global community assets and communication channels, gradually expanding the international influence of the “People’s Exchange.”
