How big will ICP conferences be? Should they be multi-chain? What brands will be allowed to sponsor?\

For just 1 ICP, you can become an early VIP owner of ICP’s 1st conference series and be part of the community voice that will answer these questions!

# 6 Reasons All Retail ICP Holders Should Contribute 1 ICP To The ICPCC SNS Sale

For more information about the ICPCC SNS:\
<https://www.icp-cc.com/live#dao> \
*\*The SNS swap sale has only 4 days left.*

## 1. ICPCC gives the ICP community a voice & grows the ecosystem.

- The [9-hour ICPCC 2024 livestream](https://x.com/icp_cc/status/1788977911623758204) has \~30k views across all platforms, with a peak of \~10k live viewers during the event!
- Increased engagement has been measured across Internet Identity registrations, ICP mentions on Twitter, users on OpenChat, and many other platforms. It's hard to define an exact number, but **ICPCC 2024 has onboarded at least 1,000-2,000 active new community members** into the ICP ecosystem so far!

## 2. You’ll get the best deal on $CONF through the SNS swap sale.

- SNS swap sale participants qualify for [an early-bird incentive](https://litepaper.icp-cc.com/#a2746da7322c4712ac04ae3f366304ed), which would increase the amount of $CONF each contributor receives by 9.7% as of now!

For example:

- If the ICPCC SNS raised 3k ICP, for every 1 ICP that an SNS participant contributes, they would receive 136.7 $CONF from the swap sale plus an additional 13.3 $CONF from the early-bird airdrop.

## 3. ICPCC DAO has a strong business model.

Web3 conferences generally do well even in bear markets, with events like ETHDenver bringing in $500k-$1m in net profit during 2023.

The ICPCC DAO will hire vendors to organize upcoming ICPCC events for fixed contracts and then collect all ticket sales, merch, and sponsorship income back into the DAO treasury.

The goal is for the ICPCC DAO to use this revenue to increase its treasury over time while also increasing the compensation it pays $CONF SNS neurons for "governance services."

In essence, it is a standard Web3 event series business model, except a DAO of ICP community members will manage the high-level ownership of the brand and benefit from its growth (instead of a board of directors).

## 4. $CONF has strong tokenomics, and ICPCC will be one of the most decentralized SNS DAOs.

Just 8 NNS principals contributed more than 50% of all ICP raised by SNS swap sales through January 2024.

By contrast, the ICPCC SNS is an intentionally moderate raise, with (as of May 20th) 312 retail ICP investors contributing an average of \~9.27 ICP each. These SNS contributors will split 41% of the $CONF token supply plus the 4% early-bird discount, making a new record of 45% of the total SNS token supply going to SNS swap sale participants!

$CONF has some of the most [community-centric tokenomics](https://litepaper.icp-cc.com/#be585accca3b4ca28e3ea91765ade2a6) of any SNS.

In addition, \~2,000 ICP principals will be receiving [4% of the $CONF supply during a community airdrop](https://litepaper.icp-cc.com/#2aaaa3d087184baf9d01c0e3b298edcc).

$CONF will have a fixed supply of 1,000,000 and be the exclusive asset accepted for event tickets, VIP perks, and official event merch.

## 5. The ICPCC SNS Swap sale is about decentralization, but a larger raise benefits the whole ecosystem.

ICPCC is the first, largest, and most well-known community event series in the ICP ecosystem. Whatever amount is raised during its SNS, the ICPCC event brand can fund future events through sponsorships, just like all other Web3 conferences.

However, the more ICP is raised, the sooner the ICPCC DAO will be able to fund valuable community initiatives, which may include:

- Larger 1,000+ multi-day in-person conferences for celebrating ICP and giving ICP projects access to broad marketing exposure within the greater Web3 industry.
- The filming of an ICP Netflix documentary during an upcoming ICPCC conference (which the ICPCC DAO could legally own the copyright of and collect royalties for since it’s a Marshall Islands DAO LLC).
- Availability for other SNS DAOs such as SNEED to be able to sell their own branded merch at future ICPCC events.

## 6. This is the time when retail ICP holders need to show up!

The ICPCC SNS sale has **only 4 days left**!\
\
It doesn’t need whales or a huge ICP raise; it only needs the ownership, engagement, and participation of the existing retail ICP holders!

There is [no original DAO creator](https://x.com/isaac_icp/status/1787895178939777037) who will be pulling the strings. This is a truly independent DAO with a novel [self-elected council structure](https://litepaper.icp-cc.com/#1834c229c50c46e1b56b071f7978a8ef) that leaves the DAO members in total control. However, this also means the ICPCC DAO will it only work if enough community members care about [what ICPCC is and why it exists](https://osjzm-oaaaa-aaaal-ajcoq-cai.icp0.io/).\

For 1 ICP, this is your chance to become an early VIP owner of ICP’s 1st conference series and be part of the community voice that will answer these questions!
