Another interesting reflection was the use of 0.0001 eth vs 0.0007 eth price points, and its correlation to mint volume.

The 5 content categories we targeted generated between $72k-$101k in revenue each, spanning digital art, short form video, long form video, music, and podcasts.

Creators drove activity on each platform they interacted with, driving 188k mints on @zora (0.0001 eth), nearly 100k mints on @drakula (0.0007 eth), and just under 50k mints on @pods (0.0007 eth).
Reflecting further on Blueprint's Dune dashboard, I wanted to cover some interesting stats on our creator's audience growth.

Building on top of an open social graph serves many benefits for creators, specifically with linking collector activity to follower growth on a platform like Warpcast.

Cohort 1 creators saw massive growth here, with their total followers increasing by 42,228 over 7 weeks.

@afrochicks led the charge, growing her audience from less than 100 to 16,646 followers and being recognized by as the top creator on Warpcast as measured by total engagement last month.

Nearly every creator left with anywhere between 2-3.5k new followers by the end of the cohort.
Sharing an important update for @bello users.

Starting 11/1/2024, we're changing our product to focus on messaging and Blueprint, 2 areas that provide the most value to our strategic customers and the company's long term vision.

Here's info on the features we're discontinuing.

These 3 core features will be deprecated at the end of the moth:

1. Insights
2. Blockchain data support
3. Segments

Additionally, past searches and exporting data will be inaccessible.

The following feature will stay for now:

1. Messaging via XMTP and Warpcast direct casts

The decision to retire these 3 features wasn’t taken lightly. It is based on our need to prioritize resources toward what has been most impactful for users.

Messaging has proven to be effective for strategic customers, while Blueprint has shown potential for growth.

In the last 7 weeks, Blueprint Cohort 1 helped 24k unique wallets earn $404k worth of crypto, with an average of $21 per wallet.

We collaborated with Zora, Pods, Guild, Layer3, Bonsai, and Drakula, utilizing their funds to incentivize collectors to mint our creator’s content. The most exciting insight is that 6% of collectors had never transacted on Base before.

Additionally, 85% of $ONCHAIN holders and 79% of $BONSAI holders kept their tokens after 30 days, demonstrating strong loyalty and long-term engagement.
Excited to put this out and take the lessons I learned from the @mintpod and apply them to help 10 other creators in Blueprint Cohort 1.

What a rewarding experience with actual results to show for it.

Check out the recap on mirror.
Just published a recap reflecting on Cohort 1 of Blueprint. Also teased the date for Cohort 2 applications going live.

Next cohort, we're going even harder. But before we start, I wanted to share some thoughts on how the 7-week program played out.
That's a wrap!

Blueprint Cohort 1 in the books. ✅

In just 7 weeks we saw $444k in sales across 347k editions from 24k collectors, with 9/10 creators entering the 10 ETH Club.

But before we open apps next week for Cohort 2, I published a recap on mirror reflecting our performance + more.

really like this integration. nice work @pods

learn n earn
Were you one of the 12.8k collectors who earned @buildoncyber tokens by supporting the Mint Podcast?

If so, over $65K in rewards are now being distributed to those who participated.

The highest reward is north of $1.6k. 🤯

We measured your portion of the $65k in rewards based on how many episodes you collected throughout the campaign.

So, the more you supported me, the more I gave back to you.

Which means the more episodes you collected, the more you were eligible to earn.

Excited to complete phase 2 of this collaboration and give back to everyone who participated.

🟢 Details for claiming in the next cast.
fun overview of this week's drops
We recently crossed 200k podcast episodes minted!

Really happy with this progress so far, and at the 200k milestone, I'm working on bringing more of us together under one roof. Been experimenting with Telegram and Discord again lately, and feeling pretty excited.

Excited to roll out a new episode ft. @davidgreenstein from /soundxyz and Vault for his first interview in a while, live on @pods.

David opens up about the current state of Sound, the team's pivot to Vault, and his refined vision for the future of onchain music.

We explore how Vault is designed to help artists connect directly with fans and own their audience, along with the lessons learned from building Sound and how those insights are shaping Vault.

I hope you enjoy our conversation.
