How valuable would this be in attracting more capital?

This is very much a marketing question (outside of my experience/background), but I feel that GF has plenty of clout in the crypto community to not have to pay such a premium to be on the crypto-bloomberg-terminal.

Instead, why not spend those funds to register with DTCC to attach a CUSIP to FIDU, shore up the asset-based reporting, and engage with a tradfi rating agency to rate FIDU? Getting an IG rating could open up the gates for all the large tradfi pension/insurance funds with mandates to invest in rated fixed income securities.

Hello,

My name is [AJ](https://twitter.com/0xwatercup), and I work as a governance analyst at Messari. We’re glad to announce that:

- We just launched our governance alerts for both off and on-chain votes AND forum discussions available for 100+ DAOs!
- As we are working with Lens to ensure important DAOs in the community get their profiles, you are now eligible for a handle to use the upcoming integrations!

## Governance Alerts:

In addition to the free coverage of proposals (for all users), our Pro & Enterprise users can now set up real-time, daily, or weekly digests for the DAOs they want to track and see the Gov Alert emails.

Where can you use it?

- Click the “Notify Me” button on a [DAO Profile page](https://messari.io/dao/goldfinch-governance).  

- Add or edit bulk alerts on the new Governor Alerts management area under a user’s profile [here](https://messari.io/account/alerts?tab=governor).  

We’ve set up a special [15% pro-tier discount code](https://messari.io/pro) exclusively for the community, making it more accessible for you to try out our services: **GOLDFINCH**.

## Lens Handle:

We’ve also partnered with [Lens](https://www.lens.xyz/) to assist with distributing profiles to protocols that don’t already have them. @RP2743, If you’d like to create a Lens profile for Goldfinch, we would be happy to pass along the following information to the Lens team:

- An EVM-compatible wallet address.
- An associated email address.
- Your social media links.

Hope you find this useful, please enjoy it and feel free to share it with your community!
