what we’re doing with itm is building the OS for brand engagement. in a world of infinite creation attention is the final asset class. owning engagement will be the only thing that matters post AGI. my cofounder @camdiamond goes deep into what we’re building and why in his latest substack. https://camdiamond.substack.com/p/the-end-of-passive-brands-the-rise

anyone here want to talk through potential tokenomics with itm. we have already onboarded a couple of thousand consumers onchain, almost 5000 have our mobile app, we are tracking real world attention through soulbound tokens, and we’re looking to scale this massively over the next 6 months based on who we’re currently onboarding. we collect fees and i think this is the perfect breeding ground for an onchain economy to emerge.

my entire operating thesis around itm is that consumer engagement is the next asset class. we know this somewhat from attention markets around tokens, but i think this broadly applies to any internet native entity.

crossed 1k transactions on the itm campaign protocol a week after deploying on base. will be really interesting to see as this continues to scale as we continue to onboard artists, venues and brands. we are not backing down from the potential of onchain consumer applications.

the first venue on itm is live. sangs is a new venue from the team at happier (palm heights, 99 scott, saa, wsa, happier grocer). this will be one of the most important culture hubs in nyc this year. all tickets are soulbound 1155s minted to keep an onchain representation of the intent. 150 minted so far for their march events and counting. this is how we bring the world onchain.

a major venue in nyc will soon start issuing transactions on base through itm. they will also be using the tokens to re-engage their audiences. all without connecting a wallet or having to do crypto. we’ve crossed from 0 to 1 in terms of adoption. this milestone took 2 years of continuous building. next leg up is from 1 to 100 where they start experimenting with tokenized experiences.

proof of concept from this weekend - a brand called humans only. powered by itm, delivered through the world app. every drop and event is gated by proof of personhood.

sunday project: chaining together several layers of LLMs to create a generative onboarding that gives us a solid understanding of each and every brand in order to personalize and refine all subsequent consumer touchpoints. feeling extremely powerful.

first draft of the itm campaign protocol whitepaper is live. most importantly this formalizes a product at the protocol level that is being used to power moments for thousands of people already. itm.studio/whitepaper

the itm campaign protocol is how we envision the next million casual users will transact onchain. these transactions will be integrious and not zero sum. the protocol is not a new moonshot product, it formalizes something already being tested by artists, creators and communities. looking for folks to give feedback on the first draft of the whitepaper.
