Dear Proposer,
Thank you for your proposal. Our first vote on this proposal is NAY.
The Medium Spender track requires 50% quorum and simple majority of non-abstain voters according to our voting policy. This proposal has received zero aye and eight nay votes from ten members, with one member abstaining. Below is a summary of our members' comments:
The voters overwhelmingly opposed the sponsorship proposal, citing a lack of value and benefits to the ecosystem. Many expressed concerns about past sponsorships failing to contribute positively, emphasizing the need for a focus on supporting builders and promoting real technological adoption. They believed that marketing investments felt premature and that the ecosystem should prioritize concrete products and experiences before engaging in sponsorships. A single abstention suggested a desire for more innovative approaches beyond traditional brand sponsorships.
The full discussion can be found in our internal voting.
Kind regards,
Permanence DAO
Your proposal aims to enhance awareness of Polkadot, which is a good attempt. However, we’ve already seen quite a few similar proposals, and PolkaWorld’s position is to observe the results of these initial campaigns before committing to broader involvement.
At this time, we won’t be offering additional support for sports-related promotional proposals. We prefer to prioritize and support more Web3-native outreach efforts.
Wishing you all the best with your application!
On behalf of Trustless Core DV and as a consequence of the impossibility to issue feedback from that account, the corresponding feedback is presented:
"Dear Proposer,
Thank you for the proposal.
Trustless Core has voted NAY. Members raised concerns about this type of project and shared their perspectives on sponsorships aimed at marketing and visibility efforts to promote Polkadot. We have observed numerous sponsorship proposals across sectors such as gaming (Heroic), sports (Inter Miami), and Indycar (Conor Daly), none of which have delivered tangible value to the network. Consequently, the impact of such proposals fails to add meaningful value to the ecosystem, as what we truly need are on-chain interactions rather than superficial visibility gained through logo placements.
If the goal is purely marketing exposure, this proposal should instead be submitted through the marketing bounty program. As Trustless Core, we firmly believe it is critical to prioritize initiatives that foster direct engagement with the network—focusing on supporting developers and driving genuine adoption of Polkadot’s technology. Additional marketing proposals that merely focus on logo placement do not benefit the network. The community is increasingly voting against such proposals, which clearly indicates a lack of full support for these types of initiatives.
Kind regards,
Trustless Core"

0 user activation so obviously NAY.
Looks an old Giotto's proposal with full brand-awereness and 0 increase for tx within the ecosystem.
