Would the community be in favor of supporting a Learn to Earn Campaign leveraging Coinbase Earn 2 and CoinMarketCap Earn 5?
This could effectively help teach current crypto holders about Uniswap ( Swap / Pool / Governance ) and possibly the tools necessary to use it (Wallet apps like METAMASK and block explorer like Etherscan ).
By doing this we could onboard the hundreds of thousands of peoples in space unfamiliar with DeFi and by doing so create positive first time
experiences for next wave of users.
This wouldn’t exactly onboard non crypto users but it is a start.
Coinbase Earn created a few lessons on how to open a Maker DAO CDP last summer which made total CDP user numbers doubled.
That was a great experiment except for the fact that later Maker DAO transitioned from single collateral to multi collateral.
With Uniswap there shouldn’t be an issue like the one described above.
The program could provide users enough Eth / UNI to make a swap and / or set up the user’s Ethereum address for voting.
There are several benefits to setting aside treasury funds for a project like this.
A couple that come to mind are more people hold $ UNI tokens, more people use Uniswap, more Ethereum addresses with thepotential to vote/delegate on a proposal, more transaction fees for LPs.
Negatives to doing this could be added sell pressure if users who get the UNI from Earn program want to sell for another coin, congested network when program goes live, and new users may realize gas prices outweigh the need to use for small trade amounts.
A quick side note, this could be best to try when / if Uniswap moves to L2 solution in future or have the programs conduct the eligibility so users don’t experience high gas prices or clog up Ethereum mainnet.
