So after more and more thought on this, I think the leg work seems to have been done by Bitshares Music and after reading through some of Cob's writing I am totally impressed. I don't know how to start this up but I'd like to reach out to the community to see if anyone is interested in working on this?
Bitshares Go / Bitshares Ride or maybe Bitshares Scout (scout meaning talent cultivation) which would be the name of the DAC that is described in the title post of this thread.
It would work exactly like Bitshares Music but would be aimed at Extreme Sports and would provide a platform for those riders of the world who have no sponsorship. In my mind, this would work best with extreme sports as the path those athletes follow are completely different than traditional sports (for example: baseball, american football, soccer, hockey and other team oriented sports).
For action sports, all it tends to take for someone to become known worldwide is the upload of a youtube video (please see: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z19zFlPah-o Danny Macaskill and his viral video of 2009 which led him to enormous ventures and sponsorship) and this is the nature of virality nowadays and applies to many elements of hobby life and music.
I'd really like to try to develop this idea more but I don't have the technical skills to work on this and I am reaching out to the community to see if anyone would like to work on this with me.
Thanks!
