Dear Rarible Foundation / Creator Fund Team,
I hope this message finds you well.
We are writing to provide a key update on Rooted Home, the Utility-First IP DAO project that submitted an application for the Creator Fund via the Tally form on September 25th. 2025.
We have successfully concluded our initial Conscious Design Validation Phase (The Anchor Awaits), confirming that the core emotional design—focused on calm, introspection, and digital ownership—resonates strongly with our target audience.
Key Milestone: The Cycle of 8 Completed The validation phase closed symbolically at 8 completed surveys (The Cycle of 8), with 8/8 participants validating the voice of Lumen (our guide) and 7/8 confirming that the design of My Journal actively invites them to write. We have now unanchored the project and are prepared to proceed directly to the technical development phase of the application (Phase 1 Utility: My Garden).
Strategic Alignment with RARI DAO: We noted the recent funding announcement for @BurritoDAO and their focus on community celebration and cultural expansion. We believe Rooted Home represents a vital, complementary counterpoint to this energy:
- If BurritoDAO is about public expansion and cross-pollination, Rooted Home is about private depth and rooting the individual in conscious ownership.
- Rooted Home fills the essential need for an introspective sanctuary within the wider ecosystem, creating a balanced and healthy community of creators and users on Rarible.
We remain enthusiastic about launching the main NFT drop exclusively on Rarible and partnering to realize this vision. Please let us know if there is a specific timeline for review or any additional documentation needed to finalize our application.
Thank you for your time and consideration.
Best regards,
Juan Carlos Guzman, Rooted Home Founder Proposal Link
