It’s time to celebrate!
Polkadot Ambassador's program has grown significantly in a little less than a year (we are currently 2247 candidates and ambassadors according to the data provided on October 31, 2021) and our amazing community continues to grow. It is a fact that our Ambassadors have made an enormous contribution to the success of the Multichain future by educating our community about Polkadot technology, organising workshops and meetups, and pushing forward Web3 technologies for mass adoption.
We want to award each ambassador for the relevant work done which has made Polkadot a success. With these Ambassador’s badges, both in a physical form and as a NFT; we, the Ambassador’s community celebrate the success of the Polkadot Community and Network.
Following the online PolkaOscar ceremony that took place online on December 28, 2021, we began minting and distributing ambassador’s NFT badges.Our original plan was to only post 3D badges to all ambassadors; but thanks to the Polkadot Decoded event in June we’ll have the opportunity to meet and hand some awards in person. We believe that taking the chance to host a physical PolkaOscar award ceremony will add spark to our movement.
The Polkadot Decoded event will take place in Berlin, Mexico City, New York, and Shanghai on June 29th & 30th 2022. Therefore, we will only post badges to those ambassadors who won’t be able to make it to the physical event. This way we will increase the chances that everyone will be awarded, and we will add a physical and virtual chapter to the wonderful history of our community.
The printing process must begin as soon as possible in order for the printing company to finalise 3d works, package the figurines and ship them to the event destination or to individuals on time for the event. About Polkadot Kings & Queens Characters: The very idea of assembling and varying characters fits very well with the social story. Games like the Sims, where you collect a hero similar to yourself or Memoji from Apple, all works and plunges us somewhere into our childhood.
Ambassador’s Badges are the characters made from cubes that you can assemble yourself, according to your taste and colour preferences. Your first badge can be the beginning of a regular collection - small and static, or something big and dynamic: games, cartoons, merch, the metaverse. This project is about personalities, anyone can find himself in a chelobrik and can build his own little cheloworld. Kusama Princes & Princesses and Polkadot Kings & Queens are a symbol of the Power of The Community and The Power of an Individual in this ecosystem. We are Decentralised but United by the ideal of building a new creative, decentralised and fairer world.
