I’ll reply to everything over the weekend, but I wanted to bump an item that could be part of the short-term solution you’re looking for – [rabbithole.gg](https://rabbithole.gg/). It was mentioned in two separate threads on our governance forum, but got little more than lip service from the community (myself included):

> [@Quest via rabbithole.gg](https://gov.bancor.network/t/quest-via-rabbithole-gg/1718):
>
> Creating a quest via rabbithole.gg has been suggested in Telegram and referenced in [Traders incentives discussion](https://gov.bancor.network/t/trader-incentives-discussion/1706/4)… just giving it a separate track. [rabbithole.gg](https://rabbithole.gg) I think it’s worth a test.

> I noticed there is only one topic discussing trading incentives about tiered fees so decided to make a more generic one here. This topic’s purpose is to provide a space for the community to convey and brainstorm ideas around rewards/marketing solutions to attract more trader volume to Bancor. A couple of ideas just to get the discussion starting: A trading competition to reward the highest trading volume wallets on Bancor in a certain time frame. Subsidising trader gas fees by awarding a cert…

However, in the Trader Incentive Discussion @tenzent, @tfns and @glenn all did voice their support for a rabbithole quest. They’re smart cookies!

Recently, I noticed that AAVE [approved a grant to create a quest](https://governance.aave.com/t/grant-received-to-create-an-aave-quest-on-rabbithole/4683). I read through the post, replies and explored rabiithole, and I agree with my esteemed colleagues that this could be a great, low-cost and minimal dev-resource experiment. @issabobissa, please take a look and let us know what you think.

FWIW, I would wholeheartedly support a grant similar to AAVE as a short-term solution to find new users. If we went with USD $50,000 we should be able to track various KPIs such as cost per new customer acquisition, etc.

EDIT: Thinking more about this, the use of rabbithole should also allow us to do some customer segmentation through the use of specific quests. which I provide a very rough draft for below.

**Liqudity Providers:**

- add TKN liquidity from a CEX
- add BNT liquidity from a CEX
- add BNT liquidity from a wallet such as MM

**Traders** generally for my being too lazy to segment them atm though I’m going to default to lowest common denominator of CEX clients we want to lure away from CEXes:

- Add TKN from a CEX
- Swap TKN for another asset (perhaps BNT? wBTC to show people educate how to earn interest on BTC not just buy BTC to hodl)
- Place a limit order
- Sell vBNT for leverage, etc.

**Governance** :

- Participate on Bancor governance forum
- Stake vBNT to vote
- Vote vBNT

**New User**

- Deposit via fiat gateway
