SportStake Development & EU Marketing Funding Proposal
Dear Polkadot Community,
Following our initial discussion post, we are now officially submitting our treasury proposal for funding.
SportStake is a mobile wallet app that allows sports fans to stake DOT while automatically supporting their favorite sports clubs by sharing a small portion of their staking rewards. This provides clubs with an additional funding source for initiatives such as youth development programs and other community-focused activities.
We have already partnered with NAC Breda and SV Kampong, two well-known Dutch sports organizations. These pilot programs have helped grow our staking pool to over 50,000 DOT, demonstrating strong interest from both fans and clubs. With treasury funding, we aim to expand these partnerships across Europe, enhance the app, and increase adoption.
📄 Full Proposal: SportStake Polkadot Funding Proposal 2025
We appreciate your support and encourage you to vote in favor of this proposal to help bring SportStake to more sports communities across Europe.
Thank you, The SportStake Team

Thank you for the proposal, while we do think that the proposal itself presents a solid idea and does align with the broader direction our DAO has been supporting, particularly efforts that tie marketing with a clear funneling strategy to bridge sport fans with the ecosystem via wallet as a tool.
That said, given the existing presence of well-established wallets like Talisman, Nova, and the upcoming integration with Brave Wallet, our DAO members believe that it's becoming increasingly important to consider collaboration over duplication. This is from a cost-efficiency and ecosystem cohesion standpoint for the Treasury, exploring partnerships with current wallet providers might deliver more impact while preserving Treasury resources.
We encourage the team to consider engaging with existing wallet teams to potentially integrate their ideas or co-develop features, which could strengthen both the proposal and the broader ecosystem. REEEEEEEEEE DAO
