We actually talked about it in the original FB thread. I’m actually very much helping Mati.

$2k - nobody is gonna take it seriously. Professional Matchmakers already get paid $10-30k for no results guaranteed. Why would they move a finger over $2k? The thing is…we don’t want a professional match maker. We want someone in our circles/communities who already happens to know quality people, to be incentivized to connect us to someone they personally know.

Every quality relationship I’ve been in was introduced by a friend. My last one, my best friend was dating her, we were briefly in a triad together, and then monogamously started dating.

So…how does my $100k bounty help Mati? Well…there is no market for what we’re asking for. It’s kinda a weird idea. Our friends might be like “oh this is kinda cool” and help us. But they’re already our friends. If they knew someone perfect for us, they’d introduce us for free.

We want friends of friends of friends to introduce us. And for that…they need to know we’re 100% serious about this.

As for the contract - well, it would be trivial to have my attorney draft something up. But since I work in DeFi, I’d like to actually make a scalable crypto solution. Basically we will create a custodial wallet, where potential partners “stake” a percentage of the total bounty, as a proof of funds and interest. Nobody gets access to the funds until the terms of the contract are triggered. They can still be used in certain transactions and appreciate in value. They could even be in the form of a currency linked to this project, and appreciate in value as the market grows.

Now of course, I could very well find a technicality to screw you out of your bounty. But…is that really in my best interest? I’m assuming you and my partner-to-be are good friends. Would my partner really think well of me for screwing over their friend for a few gran? I mean I definitely would not date someone like that.
