City Quest (Coming in V2)

Engagement without economics is unsustainable. Fans might create for love initially, but passion without reciprocity eventually burns out. City Quest transforms fandom from extraction to exchange by creating transparent value flows between IPs and their communities.

Traditional fan engagement is fundamentally broken. Brands extract free labor through "contests" that transfer rights without fair compensation. Influencer campaigns pay the loudest rather than the most effective. Attribution is impossible, so genuine contributors watch extractors capture rewards. The system punishes authenticity and rewards performance.

City Quest operates on different principles. Any verified holder can launch quests that expand the IP universe. Rewards are distributed based on measurable impact rather than subjective judgment. The attribution graph ensures value flows to actual creators rather than intermediaries.

Quest design follows game mechanics that drive genuine engagement. Clear objectives provide direction without constraining creativity. Tiered rewards recognize different contribution levels. Time bounds create urgency without panic. Public leaderboards add competitive dynamics. The result is sustained participation rather than one-off stunts.

The verification system prevents gaming while maintaining accessibility. Submissions require stake to prevent spam. Voting weight correlates with skin in the game. Rewards vest over time to prevent dump dynamics. Anti-sybil mechanisms ensure unique participation. Bad actors are filtered; genuine contributors thrive.

The compound effects are powerful. Each quest expands the IP's content library. Successful contributors build a reputation that unlocks bigger opportunities. The community develops shared ownership through creative participation. The IP evolves from a static brand to a living universe shaped by its biggest fans.
