Challenges

Launch purpose-driven micro-fundraisers with escrow-backed accountability and dynamic fan interactions.

Challenges are Mesi’s evolution of crowdfunding. Instead of rigid, long-term campaigns, Challenges are spontaneous, interactive "Dares" where creators commit to a specific action once a funding target is met.

How It Works

A Challenge is built on a simple "If X, then Y" logic. Creators set a goal, a deadline, and a promise.

Define your goal (e.g., "1,000 USDC") and your commitment (e.g., "I will record a new song by Feb 1st"). Fans contribute "Bid-Tips" toward the goal. These funds are held securely in escrow by the platform. If the target is reached within the timeframe (max 7 days), the creator moves to the execution phase. Once the task is done, the creator marks it as "Completed," triggering a 24-hour dispute window for transparency.

Possible Outcomes

To ensure fairness, Mesi uses automated smart contract logic to handle the funds based on the following three scenarios:

Creator finishes the task and clicks "Completed." After a 24-hour dispute window, funds are released to the creator. If the creator fails to mark the challenge as completed within the defined window, all funds are **automatically refunded** to fans. The creator can choose to deliver anyway (receiving partial funds) or reject the challenge, triggering immediate refunds.

Fees & Incentives

Mesi encourages the use of the native ecosystem through a tiered fee structure:

Engagement Rewards

Participating in a successfully completed challenge grants Engagement Score bonuses to fans.

  • Note: Refused or expired challenges do not trigger bonuses to prevent system abuse.

Limits & Safeguards

**Time Sensitive:** Each challenge can run for a maximum of **7 days**. The completion window after reaching the goal cannot exceed **30 days**.

  • Goal Caps: Your maximum fundraising goal is determined by your Account Tier.

  • Minimum Contribution: $1 (in either USDC or $MESI).

  • Dispute Resolution: If a fan files a valid complaint during the 24-hour window, Mesi moderators manually review the content before any funds are released.
