Doge IP Innovation

Bark Tank Ideas & Drafts
1

I’d love to look into ways to innovate more with the Doge IP.

Right now we have the exclusive license from Atsuko. She’s never granted that to any other organization or for any of her other adopted pets.

We are currently building a pipeline of brand partners including but not limited to Revolut, D3, and Ledger.

Some ideas on how we could try novel applications:

  • allow DOG holders to utilize IP in a novel way (X holding = Y access)
  • work with Story Protocol - https://www.story.foundation/
  • work with Pudgy Penguins IP platform
  • build a Meme Actors Guild of meme IP and help all memes get more trad licensing deals with Doge as the leader

What would be cool is if we thought up ways to give exclusive access to DAO assets to DOG holders encouraging levels of holdership that allowed for (potentially revokable) rights given for Doge ethos-aligned community projects.

Some ideas of assets the DAO holds: x.com

Some ideas of Doge IP applications thus far: x.com

What do you think?

all the listed ideas are amazing. I like the guild idea. I suggest more collaboration with base & coinbase and allowing coinbase to create creative things with the doge IP i think it will be a perfect match

imagine officially licensed campaigns with doge being a mascot, imagine stuff like if you sign up for a coinbase account in the next 24 hours you get a very limited edition official doge toy and other things they can do by collaborating with you and the official IP.

^i think this is a great idea but may become hard to monitor/manage the more members are on boarded. Could we add a couple of qualifiers such as x amount of months/years as a member with x amount of tokens/pixels? And automate permissions through the contract if they market sell everything? If a member uses it in a negligent or malicious way, how can we monitor it and automate community votes for cease and desist/excommunicado?

These sound like awesome initiatives, Tri. I think some others are going to post a few ideas as well and some are very cool. One was a toy idea or something irl / physical. I think that’s super cool but ofc not necessarily novel and also possibly difficult to execute - nevertheless love the idea. With that said, I think from the licensing side it becomes another’s execution directive so maybe that is a good thing.

I think it would be very cool to have one aggressive / low probability lottery ticket ‘iron-in-the-fire’: like a relationship at the film / tv level (or whatever we decide this target is). Would not surprise me if some convos are happening, albeit exploratory.

As we think about this, it could make sense to identify the gold standard of licensing (who this is, crypto or non-crypto) and try to get a sit down with this team. Again, maybe an aggressive ask but there might be a very tactical way of moving forward here.

So frikn awesome to see all the ideas discussed. The commitment is incredible from this team.

This is a wonderful push forward!
The Doge IP is something unique, special, iconic and magical …
as well as quite difficult to frame in one box.
All ideas you’ve shared sound really good, but what I’d propose is to think about a framework for the IP more broadly.

This could mean to perhaps separate commercial, non-commercial, and philanthropic IP use, and downstream partnerships, collabs, and initiatives.
For example;
Non-commercial could include personal use, unlimited and infinite vibe sharing anywhere anytime - the purpose is pure vibe. Examples might include titles xyz collab, doge exhibition, doge day, but also, any individual that uses the iconic doge to express themselves, vibe, etc.

Philanthropic - ngos, charities, educational, purpose is positive impact. The track record of OTD is already second to none. Continuing this, with each new philantropic project / partnership there will be more structure to it. Doge inspired events, hackatons, fundraisers, etc.

Lastly, commercial, where the purpose is pofit. Perhaps revolut is a good example, and plenty of ideas shared above already.
Everything that can bring unique doge vibe makes sense.
IRL - Toys. Merch. stationary. Dog food.
URL - Gaming. Animation. Films.

I believe that defining the first two well (non-commercial and non-profit for impact) the commercial one becomes much clearer.
It’s quite possible to mix commercial and non-profit, e.g. a company doing an animated series will donate % of profits to philantrophic causes.

Now, to the mechanism… many people here are much more equipped to design mechanisms, but here are some ideas;
Commercial rights could be granted to any holder of certain size that is “approved”. Certain partnerships that increase the brand value could have a lower treshold, for example.
There could be a perpetual licence that renews annually, providing the party locks up their DOG tokens for another year…

IP rights for non-profits and charities could be granted without token ownership but with clear partnership guidelines, and, perhaps offering crypto rails for fund raising via DOG token…

Non-commercial is self explanatory.

Great discussion - I am looking forward to seeing what the OTD collective comes up with here!
