I am inspired by the Scavenger hunt Blockcities is organizing.

Our version of competition could be to get people excited to build the tallest tower in the world (probably incentivize the winners by FOAM tokens?)

Since tallest towers are a function of the density of points in a small area, this would invariably lead to people ganging up in clans and then making towers. Imagine the Pokemon Go AR craze where people were roaming around finding pokemons mapped to FOAM.

A contrarian take on the above would be introducing a function of staked tokens into the mix. Currently, our viz has 2 separate modes of calculating tower lengths and a metric could be devised to merge these 2 seperate modes into 1 mode. Now somebody with a lot of money (batman) could plot one huge tower by staking bags of points and leave other clans in the dust.

Get YouTube live streamers working their magic on top of these.

Outcome:
POI activity https://foam.tools/#/stats/activity goes 10x.
