French company iExec, which offers a decentralized marketplace for IT resources, has unveiled the iExec Portal, a new interface for its community. This tool aims to support the growth of the iExec community by offering it the possibility to vote on activities that concern it and by rewarding its contributions with RLC tokens.
Participate in the governance of the community
A startup born in 2016 based in France, iExec (RLC) enables the exchange of cloud resources on a global scale in a marketplace open to all.
Built on Ethereum, iExec’s marketplace connects resource providers with resource users, allowing anyone to monetize computing power, datasets and applications.
To support the growth of its community, iExec has just unveiled the iExec Portal. To this end, this tool introduces a voting system: iExec community members can now take part in various decisions regarding community activities by voting on proposals submitted by the iExec team.
For example, members will be able to vote on the format of AMA sessions, give awards to a community member, or even choose future features for the iExec Portal.
Members’ votes are weighted by the number of CDNs they hold, but any CDN holder can participate, regardless of the number of CDNs they hold.
In order to keep it cost-free for the community, voting will take place on the Snapshot platform, which takes note of the amount of tokens held in the wallet at the time of voting.
Note that users will need to connect to the iExec Portal via a Portis or MetaMask wallet.
Contribute to iExec’s development and receive rewards
To highlight the actions of its members, iExec also introduced the Community Rewards Program. This new program aims to reward the most active and involved members of the community for their contributions, ranging from content creation to technical support for protocol users.
The rewards are in the form of RLC tokens and will be distributed monthly to outstanding contributors.
The iExec Portal contains all the information related to the Community Rewards Program, in particular how to earn the various rewards offered by iExec.
From this new tool, it will also be possible to view the NFTs POAP (a kind of souvenir engraved on the blockchain) received after contributing to the project or participating in events.
Access all iExec resources through a single interface
The iExec Portal also makes it easy to manage portfolios containing CDNs. With a dedicated dashboard, RLC token holders can view the balance of their portfolio.
In addition, users can find out how to grow their RLC tokens in a variety of ways, including on platforms like Uniswap or Bancor.
Also, by browsing the iExec Portal, users can access iExec products and services from a single interface:
- The iExec Oracle Factory, to create custom oracles from any type of data, in less than 5 minutes and with a few clicks ;
- The iExec Developer Rewards Program, to be rewarded for building applications on the iExec protocol.
“With the iExec Portal, we want to offer the community an entry point where anyone can join the iExec ecosystem. The iExec Portal is meant to be a place to listen to our community, recognize and reward their contributions, and help them get the most out of their CDNs,” said Nelly Cornejo, iExec Adoption Manager.
Of course, this is the first iteration of the iExec Portal. The iExec team plans to add many more features over time in order to provide the best possible experience for its community.
