Description

To the XPR Network Community,

We, at Harvard's Behavioral Strategy Group (BSG), are honored to connect with you, following our analysis of Metallicus and their position in the blockchain landscape. As a behavioral science research and consulting group, Harvard BSG believes Metallicus is a great fit for a case study on consumer behavior in the blockchain and cryptocurrency sectors. As an early integrator of traditional finance with the dynamic world of blockchain cryptocurrencies and DeFi, Metallicus offers an opportunity for fruitful collaboration on behavioral research and analysis. In building hypotheses and methodologies for our work, Metallicus's involvement in and support for the XPR Network's decentralized decision-making and funding model caught our attention and enabled the viability of comprehensive research on the industry.

Research Partnership Proposal:

  • Partners: Harvard Behavioral Strategy Group, XPR Network, and Metallicus

  • Objective: To conduct comprehensive research on young adult consumer behaviors in the blockchain and cryptocurrency sectors, offering insights to both Metallicus and the broader industry.

  • Scope of Work:

    • Perform an in-depth behavioral analysis of middle-aged adults’ (30 - 50 years) perceptions and interactions with cryptocurrency and blockchain technology.

    • Utilize diverse research methodologies, including quantitative surveys and qualitative interviews.

    • Develop strategic recommendations based on the research findings, with an emphasis on applicability across the broader industry.

Enhanced Deliverables:

  • A detailed research report on scope, methodology, analysis, conclusions, and generalizability. This report will include a section detailing the decentralized funding process, highlighting the community-driven funding model and emphasizing the role of the XPR Network in enabling blockchain research.

  • Strategic insights and actionable recommendations, focusing primarily on broad industry applications, with potential specific benefits for Metallicus.

  • A comprehensive marketing and public relations strategy, executed by Metallicus's PR agency, targeting key opinion leaders and industry journalists to maximize the report's reach and impact.

Funding Request:

To carry out this project, we request $9,000 in funding. This investment will enable us to conduct thorough research and ensure effective dissemination and impactful marketing of the findings. The XPR Network, as the facilitator of this research, and the broader blockchain industry stand to benefit significantly from the insights this study will provide.

We are excited about the potential impact of this partnership and the opportunity to contribute meaningful insights to the ever-evolving world of blockchain and cryptocurrency. Through this project, we aim to not only illuminate important consumer behaviors but also to highlight the XPR Network's innovative role in utilizing decentralized governance for impactful research initiatives.
