Today, Drakula is announcing the first Onchain Creator Fund to reward its creators. We have a 20M DEGEN grant (worth around $333,333 as of writing) from @jacek and the DEGEN team to give away. Our goal is to encourage original content on Drakula, and to experiment with ways to make a living off their passion – entirely onchain.
Drakula's Onchain Creator Fund is designed to celebrate and support the incredible work of short-form video creators like you. We recognize your dedication, creativity, and passion for making engaging content, and we want to reward you for doing what you do best – creating amazing videos on Drakula.app. This fund is our way of showing appreciation for your hard work and commitment to entertaining and inspiring your audience in the decentralized, creator-centric ecosystem we're building together.
And unlike TikTok, here, our fund currency is $DEGEN – a community-driven currency you'll play a role in shaping. We will pay creators every week, starting next week!
Pay creators for original content. Drakula's mission is to bring 1 billion people onchain via social media, which is not an easy task. The only way for the onchain world to compete with social media giants is by paying fairly.
Drakula.app pays, in fact. We have been making waves in the Farcaster ecosystem for this: in only 12 days since launch, Drakula Creator Tokens have organically paid out over $575,000 to social media creators (creators earn a 5% fee paid out each trade).
We want to work with creators to experiment with novel onchain mechanisms and see which one could be the most sustainable. For us to win, we shouldn't be a casino forever – we want to facilitate long-lasting relationships between creators and their communities.
Any Drakula.app short-form video creator serious enough to consider their content creation job at least a "part-time activity". This is loosely defined to include any category from video-makers, artists, technologists, musicians, comedians, and more!
People who are at least "crypto-curious", meaning they are willing to learn and engage with novel tools like Drakula Creator Tokens, Zora media, Farcaster, Fabric Hypersub and more.
The basic criteria are:
You must have a Drakula.app profile.
You must post at least 3 original videos per week.
The videos must be auto-posted on Farcaster.
You must have at least 3 unique collectors on Drakula.
These serve as rough guidelines – every week, the final selection will be made by our Onchain Creator Fund committee (to be announced soon), who will have complete autonomy in the curation process.
If you are interested, click here to apply for the Onchain Creator Fund.
To be eligible for the first week's rewards, make sure to meet the criteria by Friday, March 29! The Onchain Creator Fund committee will announce the recipients of the weekly grants every Wednesday, beginning April 3rd.
Starting from Wednesday, April 3, our Onchain Creator Fund committee (TBA) will select and reward the top creators of the week on a weekly basis, at their own discretion.
Each creator will earn up to $1,000 in DEGEN per week. There are no limits in how many times a creator can be selected successively.
We will also grant DEGEN bonuses for outstanding original content.
While the fund currently consists solely of DEGEN, Drakula is open to the possibility of incorporating other community-driven tokens in the future. We want to commit to adapting and evolving our fund to best serve its community.
The introduction of this creator fund marks a significant milestone for the broader short-form video industry. We want to set a new standard for how platforms can empower and incentivize their users.
Stay tuned for more updates on Drakula's creator fund and the exciting developments it will bring to the world of social media. The future of short-form video is looking brighter than ever, and we at Drakula want lead the charge, and free creators from the TikTok monopoly.

bruv what i gotta do https://drakula.app/user/moneymike?invite=6CWBzR
Agreed...
Awesome congrats man looks like you got it this week. It’s tough because my content is weekly long form content… guess I have to put out more frequent shorter cuts. Shame that longer form content is not as valued.
Thanks fam for the compliment. I was included on a buzzer beater. Will be using it as well as motivation to do better for sure! Man keep it going, Your contents are great and you are great doing it. As we know competion will get tighter as weeks goes by, Its just it will be 50+ creators to make the cut.
Push forward Mr. Jon. im with you! 🙌🏻 Consistency and probably tweaks on putting some shortforms here and there youll be much more set in place! Lets work towards the week 3. 200 $DEGEN
@youvee you should try again!
@alexmasmej , there are some GREAT creators , opinion leaders and builder in this grantees list! But - pay attention for new people looking to make their first step and your support could make the difference for them to keep going for another week or a month, or not. Let's expand the user base. cc @youvee

See you this week
Application sent! Top 100 Ranking in DRIP! I hope to be chosen!
thank you team @10kdotworld.eth
Applied! Waiting for my first buyer of my token. Going to be tough to get to 3 in order to be eligible but it’s possible!
Yo Alex, what are the guidelines on video content, does it have to be original? What if I just download from other sources and upload?
Hi fam, just sharing the actual Link/Guide ☺️ you can see the criterias there as well. Last week it was around 50+ who received airdrop. I believe the drakula team and the chosen Curators will be deciding/choosing them as application increases https://paragraph.xyz/@drakula.app/drakula-degen-onchain-creator-fund
Thanks boss!
To apply, can any 3 people buy your token or should it be from power users? @alexmasmej
Been uploading videos in the last few days. Do I need to connect my Farcaster account to apply?
Drakula you can join
Application sent!! Top 100 Ranking in DRIP! I hope to be chosen!!!
applied 🤝
Applications for this week close later today! We have a $1,000,000 fund dedicated to reward amazing video creators like you. Apply or refer your friends so they can earn for posting videos on drakula.app! https://paragraph.xyz/@drakula.app/drakula-degen-onchain-creator-fund
LFG
How will you do the weighting of rewards? Cause my following is not that big but im active and post 3-5x a day. Vs. other accounts post 1x and get 100s of views.. Just curious.
Applied this week again! Top 100 in Drakula!! I hope to enter :) https://drakula.app/user/gon
@chrismeetschris @gidwell
This is an insane incentive pool. Wow.
Just for clarification - if I'm a smaller account and I post 5x daily life content, my market updates etc. and I only get say 5-10 views. But big accounts post 1x and get 500+ views. How does the weighting work for rewards? https://drakula.app/user/0xamol?invite=N9GqkL
If we applied last week, do we apply again?💗
Doing my best! Tough to get traction on there but the grind continues and we spread the word!
If we applied for last week are we included in this week?
bump
If we applied before, do we still need to apply again?
Good inf.

On it later today! Thank you so much for these opportunities! Hugs to you and all you do!

What is the auto posted requirement I don’t think I’m auto posting, I use the 2nd screen to send to Warpcast… (I think using the 1st screen farcast link was a bit pricey for me, I’ll double check agian next video I make)😅🤙
Wow incredible thanks! Excited for this I definitely skipped tiktok so I guess I got some fresh content in here. Great initiative
I submitted 5 videos >.> How do I apply :/
I'm not there🥺
congratulations ballas
Congrats to the winners! Direct payments, too? Nice.
so we only have to apply once and we stay in the pool as long as we fulfil the requirements? is that right? :)
Yes! No need to apply twice :)
thank you, drakula. this is huge <3
If I own 3 tokens am I qualified or do they have to be 3 separate tokens? (I.E. if I own 3 of the same token does that count)
missed it, next week
LFG!!! So stoked and grateful to be a part of this!!
Thank you. Motivated to keep posting. Wtf is it already Wednesday?

Good looking out! I didn’t even consider that aspect. This is why you’re in charge. Thank you 🫡
