I think this concept has been touched upon before, but just holding this tokens doesn’t make you a part of Sovryn, I would argue, only staked SOV makes you a member of the Sovryn community, as it is the only thing that gives you both governing rights and sharing in the protocol’s revenue.
If you can use oSov to expand the sovryn community (bringing new people to acquire and stake SOV) them I’d say oSov was a success. But, I’m not sure the sovryn community is the best place for you to grow oSov interest.
- they already own staked SOV
- Most seem to not be so opened to oSov (this could change if you can prove that you are adding value to Sovryn)
Basically I think your problem is that you are seeking validation as a precursor to use oSov to add value to Sovryn.
It could be, perhaps, that you have it he other way around. Use oSov to attract people outside of Sovryn into Sovryn, thus proving the concept has merit, and then seek validation.
I get that you are trying to get people to help you in this, but I think the interest is not there as many remain skeptic (I am too).
There is a time for words and there is a time for actions. You’ve explained well what oSov is, but words will only get you so far.
Start executing your thesis, and show their results. I am in favor of you using the oSov forum post you’ve created as a journal and continue to update us in your activities and growth. But without said activity, it would be hard for people to support it, and it starts o feel spammy.
Don’t take this the wrong way, community driven initiatives are important. I myself do a lot with my personal social accounts to bring vale to Sovryn, and have been doing it for years without asking for anything in return before I was asked to contribute officially.
Key takeaway… I was asked to, I didn’t write in the forums how I wanted recognition, I simply focused on generating value and people noticed.
