Hello - I do not have a financial relationship with Bitcoin.com, but I met the team earlier this year and have been helping Ben and Jeff with the treasury proposal process and onboarding into the Polkadot ecosystem (e.g. going through the treasury proposal process, getting the accounts in order, etc.).

It should be noted that while the account appears as "single signatory account" and "unverified" on Polkassembly, it is actually a (deterministic) multisig with a subidentity set rather than an identity.

Requesting nearly $250,000 to sponsor a small publication that already targets Polkadot's audience, without a clear plan for the funds or measurable impact, is a waste of treasury resources.

This proposal is so poorly thought out and outside the norm for niche sponsorship contract values that it's not even worth considering.

Nay.

Checked the linked proposal, which is nice to watch, yet has as many nice images as lack of clear deliverables, the presentation at AAG 117(at 24:00) didnt added that much details neither.

With the passing of referendum 1166, Marketing Bounty 2.0 https://polkadot.subsquare.io/referenda/1166, all marketing and outreach referenda must be proposed to the Marketing Bounty as approving additional marketing and outreach referenda will increase that 10% treasury income significantly.
Our recommendation is for all marketing and outreach referenda to be submitted the Marketing Bounty exclusively.

Hey Bitcoin.com,
We are big fans of both Roger Ver, founder of Bitcoin.com and you guys where also publishing articles by the great individualist author, "Wendy McElroy". Would be great to see Wendy come back.

Wouldn't a better route be to work on a Bitcoin Cash <> Polkadot product instead? and then Ask the treasury for a Marketing budget that will benefit both Bitcoin Cash and Polkadot holders?
The dotsama community has some active Bitcoin projects such as Parachain Hash networks native bitcoin vault and Interlays Bitcoin defi solutions.

The Rust Synidcate votes NAY on this. But hopes a new proposal will come up with a Bitcoin Cash <> Polkadot integration. Hopefully demod by Roger Ver Himself.
