Upadate: After discussion with the Web3 Foundation, we decided to cancel this proposal and close the bounty. All meetups that took place in December will be paid from the remaining funds. We may submit a small new proposal to cover December curator salaries, as the remaining funds are not sufficient for this. Our priority is to fund the remaining meetups.
If someone has more questions, you can always reach out to us. Thanks to all for your previous support!
Greetings, Polkadot community, it has been more than one year since our last top-up request for Meetups Bounty #43. This year was very productive; we learned a lot from meetup submissions, discussions, and community calls. We want to continue growing the Polkadot community with a strong focus on quality and lasting impact.

Meetups are a key part of growing the ecosystem. They help connect people, share knowledge, and build trust at low cost. In this proposal, we share updates about the bounty, new improvements, statistics, plans, and ways we aim to increase the impact and value of each meetup.
