Program Partners
The DeFi Accelerator is made possible by the collective collaborative efforts of our Program Partners.
When a project joins the Blockzero DeFi Accelerator, there are three primary goals the project can choose from.
Here are just a few examples of what is possible through the Blockzero Accelerator.
Explainer Videos
Blockzero Labs can create customized educational content and walk-through tutorials to help users learn about how a project works and why they may want to use it.
Interactive Interviews
Blockzero Labs can facilitate interviews on the Around the Block Video/Podcast series that is hosted by Lea Thompson. ATB guests include Stani Kulechov (Aave), Nick Johnson (ENS Domains), Robert Leshner (Compound), Paul Berg (Sablier/Mainframe), and many more!
Mass Blasts
Any content or interviews created could be distributed to potential users through our highly engaged email, SMS, and social channels.
- 7,000+ Email List
- 1,200+ SMS List
- 15,000+ Social Following
Token Awareness
Blockzero Labs can feature projects with native tokens as a primary asset on the Flashstake Dapp. As Blockzero’s flagship protocol, Flashstake reached over $10M in TVL and $3M volume within six weeks post launch.
KPI Campaigns
Blockzero Labs can help onboard Citizens into protocols and projects by rewarding individuals for completing specific tasks. Some examples include:
- Liquidity Providers: LPs must provide at least $1000 worth of liquidity for 50 days
- Borrowers/Lenders: Must lend or borrow at least $500 worth of capital for 25 days
- Developers: Through a digital hackathon, developer must build a proof-of-concept that integrates your specific protocol
These are just examples – your campaign can be personalized to meet your specific needs and requirements!
Onboarding Incentives
To facilitate and incentivize engagement for these campaigns, Blockzero Labs would donate $10,000 to $250,000 $XIO tokens to any project that is accepted into the Accelerator. The $XIO token is the primary governance token of Blockzero and has over $4,000,000 worth of liquidity on Uniswap.
In return, projects accepted into the Accelerator are expected to offer $10,000 to $250,000 tokens to Project Partners and the Blockzero Index.
To ensure that assets are securely locked and incentivizing Blockzero Citizens to support projects/protocols for many years to come, the Blockzero Index utilizes a deflationary distribution model. The only way to remove tokens from the Index is by burning $XIO tokens.
Blockzero Labs is powered by over 18 core Citizens from all over the world.
Growth Core
We tell the story.
I am Zachary Dash, the Creator of Blockzero and father of Bomb Token. My biggest passion in life is exploring new ideas and connecting the world with new visions of reality. Obsessed with DeFi + Liquidity + Tokenomics + Community.
I am Anthony Scarpulla, Blockzero’s lead Content Manager. I love all things content and copy related, and my career thus far has spanned everything from writing concert reviews for Bandsintown, serving as the lead copywriter for a university, and working for several crypto and blockchain ventures.
I worked alongside Zach back in the crypto craze of 2017, and was always struck by his clarity of vision around the idea’s he had percolating up in his brain, and his ability to bring them to fruition. After catching up in the Fall of 2020, I was sold on the underlying XIO vision, and it’s potential to create a decentralized token studio that truly put the power back into people's hands.
Outside of work, I spend way too much time buying books I may or may not ever finish (apparently the Japanese term for this obsession is called tsonduku), and collecting vinyl records.
