if we first look at the retention curve, from day 0 all the way to day 20-ish, which represents the full time that we've had the new data collecction onboarding up. Based on all actions, we can see that even on the first or second day, the number of people who come back and retain on our platform drops precipitously to about 20%, and only tapers off from there.
splitting it out by cohort, we see the same. Each set of numbers from left to right is a retention curve.
Do hackathon cohorts who take the time to fill out the intro yield better short and long term retention?
https://metabase.gitcoin.co/question/779
There doesn't seem to be a significant difference between the intro and non-intro cohort. However, that doesn't discount the qualitative benefits of filling out introductiory information (bio) either through the hackathon or within our onboarding. In both cases, it would still enhance our data moat.
There doesn't seem to be enough evidence to suggest that it would massively and directly increase engagement.
Let's start off with what market networks are. From this article, there are several key points and relationships that we can establish. Below are several highlighted passages and how they are critical to Gitcoin:
"Market networks use SaaS workflow software to focus action around longer-term projects, not just a quick transaction."
This essentially is Gitcoin, as we've definitely extended past the transactional relationship of a bounty, and more into relationships centered around communities and projects, which inherently are more collaborative.
Month over month, we expect our retention curves to move up. This means with every new cohort, we're doing a better job of retaining them on Gitcoin.
We're investigating the lows and highs of our hackathon cohorts, specifically the bright green line, which was our June 2020 hackathon registrant cohort. For 1-month retention, we hit the all time low in this specific cohort. This took place during the Protect your Privacy hack, which was correlated to some of the co-marketing that we did with AngelHack. We got quite a few signups, but our start and submit work conversion rates were low (~10%), which could have been an explanation for low engagement.
Taking the opposite view, we can see that back in 2019, we were doing much better in terms of retention. What changed?
Hey everyone!
Gitcoin Grants Round 7 is coming up. It kicks off on September 15, 2020, and will run for 2.5 weeks, ending on October 2nd, 2020. This will be our biggest round yet, with matching commitments that go beyond $350k!
Here are several of our sponsors:
currently, our verified users are determined by these factors:
sms_verification = true and e.grant_contribution_amount > 1000 then 'verified'
1 makes sense to me as it tells us that you're willing to be "verified" or "identified" by SMS means, and that you're serious about funding open source. The only feedback here is we can figure out the best cut-off threshold for the grant contribution amount and how we want to divvy it up between rounds, or of all time.
Paying sponsors don't feel exclusive & special, and feel like they're competing with other sponsors.
