+
+## Content
+
+Two weeks ago, the founder of P2P placed a bet on Polymarket that P2P would reach $6M of commits in its ICO.
+Over the last 48 hours, many people have tweeted about this. Here are some of these tweets:
+I wanted to take the time to talk about how we’re thinking about this and what we’re doing.
+
+## 1: Had we known about this, we would have pushed that they not participate in these markets
+
+Ever since they started, these prediction markets have been a source of consternation for us. We’ve asked Polymarket to remove them, to no avail.
+And to state the obvious: I don’t support founders, team members, investors, or anyone else with privileged information trading in these markets.
+
+## 2: At the same time, it's unclear that this is grounds for cancelling the raise
+
+At the same time, MetaDAO is a fundraising platform, not the world police.
+At first, when I saw this come out what concerned me was that the bets were made with company, rather than personal, funds. But given that Sheldon really did name the Polymarket profile “P2P Team,” and given the other interactions I’ve had with him, it really does seem like this was a guerilla marketing stunt gone too far.
+
+## 3: The people putting in size here are sophisticated and so far none of them have told us that they no longer want to participate
+
+80%+ of the money in the raise to-date has come from funds. Funds that all ran their own due diligence process on P2P and the MetaDAO structure.
+So far, not a single one of them has asked us that we cancel the raise or requested their money back.
+
+## 4: The business appears to be real and the founder exited a previous business
+
+According to Dune, P2P is doing $4m in monthly volume, growing 27% MoM over the last 16 months, and generating $550,000 in yearly run rate revenue.
+Further, there’s reason to believe that Sheldon may know how to build businesses: he’s built one. He got a food delivery business to $2M in run rate before exiting it to a large Indian food delivery app.
+
+## 5: The huge benefit of this structure is it allows us to explore environments like this
+
+There are plenty of businesses that have done things that were seen as unpopular and/or shady but then won. To name a few: Pump Fun, Binance, Tron, and Tether.
+Part of the benefit of our structure is that it allows us to explore environments like this. If everyone who owns $P2P loses trust in the team 3 months in, they could decide to liquidate the treasury. They’d get back whatever they put into the raise minus their proportional share of what’s been spent, which equates to an 8.9% drawdown from ICO assuming they spend their full spending limit.
+
+## 6: Given all of that, we don’t see reason to cancel the raise
+
+Investors still want to participate in P2P. The P2P team still wants to raise money to accelerate the business’ growth. And we still want to underwrite the deal given our knowledge of the team, business, and the protections embedded in our structure. Given these facts, I don’t see much value in intervening other than to appeal to the mob.
+
+## 7: We’ve decided to allow refunds for those who want out
+
+We ourselves remain bullish on this deal, but we want MetaDAO to signal investor protection, and we want the P2P team to start their journey with a cohort of believers and not trapped future sellers.
+Based on this, we've decided to do two things: allow investors to request refunds before the sale is over, and extend the sale for 2 more days. The latter will give more time for investors to digest this information.
+The request refund page is live: https://www.metadao.fi/projects/p2p-protocol/fundraise/refund.
+Going forward, we plan to cancel any raise where we see the founder or team trading the raise’s prediction markets.
+
+## 8: The only way out is through
+
+Once it became clear that Sheldon was contrite, my first message to him was "welcome to the arena."
+I am confident that this was a one-time mistake - he's learned from this mishap and is rethinking P2P's strategy for communications going forward. And even if I'm wrong, there's always our tokenholder protections.

+We've just launched @P2Pdotme in Mexico and Venezuela using this new permissionless expansion strategy we draw couple months back.
+
+For reference:
+
+Brazil 45 days to launch the prototype, local team w 3 ppl, $40.000 budget for launching the country - salaries, marketing campaign, merchants, flights, accommodations.
+
+Argentina 30 days to launch the country, local team w 2 pp, $20.000 for launching the country - salaries, marketing campaigns, flights, accommodations.
+
+Venezuela 15 days to launch the country, no local team, $380 investment - 1 local KOL to acquire first users, $20 to find first 5 merchants with the global merchant network.
+
+Mexico 10 days to launch the country, no local team, $400 investment for a local KOL to acquire first users, $20 bounty to find first 5 merchants with the global merchant network.
+
+No local teams, no need to fly someone there, no interviews, no hard marketing investments, everything remote and with the support of local community.
+
+We've shifted the structure on our team from country-based teams to a unique global structure that provides support to local community leaders that lead merchant groups which we call circles.
+
+This community leaders are paid 0.2% of the total volume their circle operates in the month, removing this expense from protocol's payroll and making more sustainable in long term with the expansion to 40 countries.
+
+Our global team now has ppl from 5 different nationalities, speaking 7 different languages and it's focused on building a massive AI-powered structure of support for users and merchants that removes the need of human intervention in the day to day protocol operations.
+
+The obviously tradeoff for this kind of expansion is the lack of traction in the first weeks after launch, caused by the short marketing budget to keep this lean, however, the possibility to enter the country and start operating with $600 daily volume with less than $500 investment makes this scalable and allows us to use all resources after the soft launch to acquire new users.
+
+Our goal is to expand to 40 countries in the next 18 months, this now looks completely feasible with this new structure and allows us to get global faster with very few capex.
+
+Next countries in line: Colombia, Peru, Costa Rica, Uruguay, Paraguay, Ecuador, Bolivia, Nigeria, Philippines, Thailand, Vietnam, Portugal, Spain, Turkey, Egypt, Kenya.
+
+Also, we are actively working on allowing USD and Euro trades in the platform soon.
+
+After @MetaDAOProject raise is complete, we start a new phase of the journey for expanding 40 countries, launching on Solana and releasing the SDK.
+
+We'll keep building 🫡
