# DIP-93 Dope World Regenesis
GM Hustlers
Massive news afoot. We have submitted a grant proposal schedule to the Starknet Foundation with a number of phased requests for funding support alongside specified milestones and delivery.
I am happy to report that the Foundation has approved funding to support Phase 1 as described below. The Foundation will continue to evaluate our progress and the position of our other requests. Overall we are aiming to secure funding to incentivise & market the migration, cover the costs for our L3 Network Paper Chain to settle on SN and ultimately secure a Developer Incentive Grant to promote building within Dope World.
-\* Phase 1 “Migrateˮ: Migrate DW Primitives to Starknet\*
\- Description: Currently these are all deployed on Optimism. The process will entail recreating existing Optimism-based Dope Wars NFT infrastructure on Starknet.
The Foundation has awarded us a grant of 200k STRK that we intend to put toward this purpose as soon as we can. Currently we are underway with the administration to process this grant.
*Delivery for Phase 1 plus extras.*
The purpose of this proposal is to authorise Dope Labs to administer the Migration to Starknet, plus the extra jobs detailed below, using both the allocated STRK and the 90k USDC raised from the OTC purchase by 1kx. Our intention is to conduct a REGENESIS of the ecosystem at this juncture. We have an opportunity to refresh a number of issues that have been lacking and form the basis whereby we can position ourselves as a leading Gaming Autonomous World on Starknet attracting developers and further Foundation funding. To do this we will begin by attacking the issues that offer the greatest upside at the least technical difficulty and expense based resistance.
Dope Labs will work in conjunction with Cartridge to plan and implement the following tasks. Where applicable Cartridge will put together scope of work documents, help to recruit suitable developers and proof work. The tasks will be as follows and will be conducted in parallel.
1. Create a bridge from L1 that enables the unbundling of L1 DOPE onto Starknet. This task is technically much easier than creating the bridge from Optimism to SN and we can lean on existing OS infrastructure. The gear items on Optimism will be left for now, but the OGs will be ported to SN. The primary purpose of unbundling L1 DOPEs to SN will be to allow us to spend our resources wisely in order to begin to integrate hustlers/gear into Dope Wars & Dope World experiences.
2. Migrate and rebuild the existing frontend to Starknet including indexing infrastructure and Hustler configuration tooling. The market place function will be excluded at this time as it is a very costly function and we believe it is better to lean on existing market places at this time.
3. Re-brand our ecosystem to Dope World and rebuild our Website on DopeWorld.gg. This will tie us in with the narrative developments described here: [https://snapshot.org/#/dopedao.eth/proposal/0xfefee96a321ccc218d26c9f913bbd24cf2d733c801d030e863362b45388d207d](https://snapshot.org/#/dopedao.eth/proposal/0xfefee96a321ccc218d26c9f913bbd24cf2d733c801d030e863362b45388d207d)
4. During the process of migrating our assets to Starknet, we will take the opportunity to clean up some potential IP issues that have been outstanding as well as some of the more objectionable names as we reposition ourselves as Dope World. An assessment of the locality based groupings will be conducted to best ensure that they make sense for game play.
5. The long game will see us conduct a governance move to L2 Starknet. L1 governance is not a viable option cost wise for our ecosystem. The exact composition of this will be a work in progress.
6. This proposal will amend DIP-87 Layers of Dope in the detail that our Layer 3 Paper Chain will be settled onto Starknet.
This REGENISIS comprises of a number of tasks that together will refresh our position and take us back to the bleeding edge where we belong. This opportunity has been a long time coming and is thanks to the many that have kept believing and building. A vote yes will authorise Dope Labs to utilise the STRK grant and the 90k USDC to achieve this objective using only as much funds as required.
