Redistributing Unclaimed Tokens & Marketing Solution: A Zealy Platform Proposal for Enhancing Community Power, Social Media Presence, Awareness, and Engagement

Governance Proposals
1

Abstract

This proposal outlines the setup of a Zealy platform to redistribute unclaimed TINY tokens over four years, focusing on community engagement and task completion. The initiative is designed to address two key challenges: the unclaimed token dilemma and the need for enhanced marketing and community presence. By redistributing tokens through structured tasks, this initiative not only deepens community participation and aligns with the original token allocation in the white paper but also serves as a marketing strategy to broaden Tinyman’s user base, increase awareness, and drive adoption. This dual-purpose approach ensures that the distribution of tokens empowers the community without diminishing its influence while simultaneously boosting Tinyman’s visibility within the broader market.

Objective

The primary objective of this proposal is to solve the unclaimed token issue and enhance Tinyman’s marketing presence by leveraging community engagement. Instead of burning tokens—which could disproportionately reduce the community’s influence—the proposal focuses on distributing tokens based on merit, commitment, and active involvement. This approach will:

  • Address the unclaimed token dilemma by redistributing tokens to active community members.
  • Tackle the marketing challenge by increasing Tinyman’s presence within the community at large and exciting new adopters.
  • Foster deeper community engagement and adoption by rewarding active participants.
  • Enhance the value of the community’s influence by maintaining equitable token distribution.
  • Preserve the integrity of the project by adhering to the original distribution metrics outlined in the white paper.
  • Implement robust security measures to ensure fair distribution and prevent bot farming.

Background

The current distribution of TINY tokens shows the community holding 35%, the protocol holding 34.35%, and investors holding 30.65%. Proposals to burn unclaimed tokens threaten to exacerbate this imbalance, reducing the community’s influence and potentially harming the project’s long-term viability. Burning tokens, in this context, does not guarantee a positive price impact or increased project sentiment.

Given that the unclaimed tokens have already been committed to the community in the white paper, any deviation from this allocation would undermine the project’s integrity. Instead, redistributing these tokens to active and committed community members aligns with the project’s original goals, encourages ongoing engagement, and supports the long-term health of the ecosystem.

Proposal Mechanics

  1. Platform Overview

    • Zealy will serve as the primary hub for tracking and rewarding community engagement.
    • Participants will complete daily and weekly tasks to contribute to community growth and adoption.

  2. Task Structure

    • Daily Tasks
      • Creative Tweets: Share insights, news, or updates about the project on X (formerly Twitter), including relevant hashtags.
      • Community Forum Posts: Start or contribute to discussions within the community forum, sharing valuable insights.
    • Weekly Tasks
      • Meme Creation: Develop engaging and humorous memes that reflect the community’s ethos and spread awareness.
      • Video Content Creation: Produce videos explaining project features, updates, or highlighting community achievements.
      • Governance Participation: Engage in governance by voting on proposals and participating in discussions.
    • Monthly Tasks
      • Blog Contributions: Write and publish blog posts on project developments, technical insights, or community stories.

  3. Expected Outcomes

    • Monthly Allocation: Unclaimed tokens will be distributed monthly based on tasks completed and the quality of contributions.
    • Distribution Period: This distribution will take place over the next four years, ensuring ongoing engagement.
    • Weighted Rewards: Significant tasks (e.g., video creation or blog posts) will receive higher rewards than simpler tasks (e.g., tweets or memes).
    • Increased Visibility: The initiative will enhance Tinyman’s social media presence and engage a broader audience.

  4. Implementation Timeline

    • Initial Setup: Platform configuration and security measures will be completed within the first month.
    • Rollout: Tasks will be introduced gradually over the following months, with community feedback guiding adjustments.
    • Ongoing Distribution: Token distributions will occur monthly over the next four years.

  5. Security Measures

    • Wallet and Account Linkage: All participants must register a single wallet address and link their Discord, X, and Telegram accounts to prevent bot farming and ensure fair distribution.
    • Security Reward System: 5% of the unclaimed token pool will be allocated to a reward system for positive actors who expose bot farming or other malicious activities. This system will include a vetting process within the governance forum.
    • Unclaimed Security Rewards: Unclaimed security rewards will be added to the last month of distribution, ensuring community benefit.

  6. Compensation for Zealy Platform Administrators

    • A portion of the unclaimed rewards will be distributed to those managing and running the Zealy platform, ensuring they are compensated for their time and efforts. This ensures smooth operation and sustained engagement on the platform.

Challenges and Considerations

  • Monitoring for Bots: Constant vigilance will be required to detect and prevent bot farming.
  • Community Involvement: Ensuring widespread participation in the initiative will require ongoing engagement and incentives.
  • Balancing Rewards: Careful consideration is needed to ensure that reward distribution remains fair and motivates meaningful contributions.

Benefits

  • Solves Two Key Issues: This initiative simultaneously addresses the unclaimed token issue and enhances Tinyman’s marketing efforts.
  • Strengthened Community Engagement: Active participation in governance and creative tasks will lead to a more cohesive community.
  • Increased Social Media Presence: Enhanced visibility across platforms will attract new users and reinforce Tinyman’s position in the market.
  • Equitable Token Distribution: The proposal ensures that tokens are distributed based on merit and commitment, preserving the community’s influence.
  • Security and Fairness: Robust measures will be implemented to prevent exploitation and maintain fairness in token distribution.

Metrics for Success

  • Community Participation Rates: Track the number of active participants and the completion rate of tasks.
  • Social Media Impact: Measure the growth of social media mentions, shares, and overall presence.
  • Token Distribution Balance: Monitor the equitable distribution of tokens and its impact on community sentiment.

Budget and Funding

  • Funded from Unclaimed Allocated Airdrop: The entire initiative, including Zealy platform costs, security measures, marketing efforts, and compensation for platform administrators, will be funded using unclaimed tokens from the previously allocated airdrop.
  • Zealy Platform Costs: Allocate a portion of the unclaimed tokens for platform setup, maintenance, and administrator compensation.
  • Security Measures: Allocate 5% of the unclaimed token pool to fund the security reward system.
  • Marketing and Promotion: Dedicate resources to promoting the initiative and ensuring widespread adoption.

Additional Information

  • Comparative Analysis: Similar initiatives on other platforms have successfully increased community engagement and visibility.
  • Market Impact: Redistributing unclaimed tokens in this manner is expected to strengthen community ties without negatively affecting the market.

Nicely done. Totally Agree.

Makes perfect sense. @Adnan-Tinyman and the rest of tinyman team, please kindly taken note.

“Proposals to burn unclaimed tokens threaten to exacerbate this imbalance, reducing the community’s influence and potentially harming the project’s long-term viability.” - this is 100% true.

“Given that the unclaimed tokens have already been committed to the community in the white paper, any deviation from this allocation would undermine the project’s integrity. Instead, redistributing these tokens to active and committed community members aligns with the project’s original goals, encourages ongoing engagement, and supports the long-term health of the ecosystem.” - It makes perfect sense to redistribute the unclaimed tokens to the loyal users (ie the users who’ve claimed their share) or if you dont’ wanna take this route, these tokens should be rewarded to loyal users/community members somehow… either by locking it up in the weekly rewards pool in governance or figuring out another method of distributing them to loyal users…

Burning these tokens MAKE ZERO SENSE in terms of the Tinyman’s principle and core vision which I believe is all about the community first.

Mangosteen, thank you for the constructive feedback.

I understand the inclination to limit the rewards to those who have already claimed—I initially leaned that way too. However, I believe an open-door policy for engagement, where anyone can potentially receive rewards, is crucial. This approach incentivizes newcomers to discover Tinyman, get involved, and feel excited about the community. The checks and balances we will implement should effectively weed out bad actors and bots, reducing the risk of coordinated accumulation and dumping on the marketplace.

My primary goal is to increase awareness and adoption, rewarding both early adopters and those who may become dedicated community members. Future new participants have the potential to be gold—absolute diehard, outspoken advocates. Unlike a burning mechanism that only reduces end-market availability, this approach not only encourages participants to hold and accumulate (increasing scarcity), driven by the hope that growth will provide even more substantial upside, but it also incentivizes them to push for that growth, gaining more rewards and increasing price action. Too often, projects become stagnant, focusing on short-term fixes that don’t last—like a single lump burn. A four-year redistribution with open enrollment, rewarding active participants each month, allows those who have the time to contribute substantially but lack funds to join the community otherwise. They can become advocates for expansion through task completion, addressing our marketing challenges without reallocating funds from other areas or disrupting the original distribution plan.

I’d love to hear your thoughts!

You’ve summarized it perfectly.

I just hope the Tinyman Team can understand this as as you’ve stated.

I just want to add - if the purpose of burning tokens is to show confidence, boost marketing by attracting new users, attract buyers - then Tinyman team should introduce and implement a burning mechanism wholeheartedly.

ie take 5% of the total supply or 10% or 20% or whatever signficant amount (bnb style) and set a burning schedule to burn it at certain intervals - this is a better form of marketing to further boost confidence. - THAT IS IF YOU WANT TO IMPLEMENT A BURNING MECHANISM.

Otherwise, burning such a small amount is useless. Completely useless, senseless, baseless.

Really like this idea and think it’s a great way to tackle two birds with one stone; keep Tiny with the community, great more organic marketing around Tinyman. Tinyman’s marketing is stellar, but they definitely don’t get the recognition they deserve.
