a Dean’s List case study (2) : Sollinked

March 1st 2024 – The last blog post in this section presented the work of the Dean’s List DAO as a panel of judges for the Solana Hyperdrive hackathon. The Solana Foundation hired us to carry out a screening round where we reviewed close to 200 submissions, and our mission was to single out the most promising protocols with our experience working with Web3 startups, that would then be presented to another panel of judges who would award the final prizes. However, our collaboration with the Solana Foundation did not only include judging the submissions for the hackathon, but also giving tailored feedback sessions to the hackathon winners afterwards. This post is a follow-up to my previous blog post that showcases our work with one of the top contestants of the Hyperdrive hackathon, Sollinked.

Sollinked is an online marketplace built on Solana that provides appointment booking, e-mail and blog/newsletter subscription services, all in one comprehensive platform. Sollinked aims to provide content creators with all the tools they need to seamlessly publish and manage their written content (blog posts and newsletters), and to allow Web3 professionals to properly manage and filter their meetings and e-mails and set customised rates.

At the heart of Sollinked’s value proposition lies the need for Web3 professionals to freely decide how they want to be rewarded for their work:

  • being properly compensated for the time they spend writing quality content, while benefiting from a communication channel that lets them efficiently deliver their content to their subscribers,
  • being properly compensated for sharing their expertise over a call or an e-mail,while still being easy to find and reach,
  • being able to connect with other Web3 professionals and read your customised Web3 digest, all in the same place.
