Hi team, I really appreciate the work on the Polkadot spanish account. But I Believe is not the moment for spending into marketing + comms. You can see the official Polkadot account with almost 0 post rn...

Anyway, happy to see the outcome

Both the official Polkadot account and the Polkadot Spanish official account (as well as any account beginning with Polkadot + [country/language]) should ideally be fully community-managed. A likely optimal approach would be to create a bounty program for these accounts, overseen by highly reputable individuals who could curate the news flow and approve content before it is shared with the wider public. Currently, this is not the case, and it is unlikely to become so. Therefore,**<ins> with regret,</ins>** I must vote NO.

Dear Proposer,

Below is a summary of our members' comments:

> The DAO cast votes against the proposal for December’s management of the Polkadot Spanish social media account. Members expressed skepticism about the value of ongoing social media marketing efforts, calling for a redesign of the approach with more innovative ideas. Concerns were raised about allocating additional funds during this transitional period, with one comment suggesting that a reduction in marketing expenditure would be more appropriate. The comments criticized the continuation of a now outdated project strategy and questioned whether the expenditures truly justified the achieved engagement, emphasizing that the current tactics lacked the creative spark necessary to drive meaningful results in the Spanish community.

These types of teams should be created through public and transparent discussions, not by the decisions of closed groups with their own interests.

It would be interesting to know how they were selected to manage X's account for an entire region.

Context of the TIP Request – December 2025

This TIP covers the work performed during December 2025 related to the management of the Polkadot Spanish X account, following the formal closure of the Marketing Bounty under which activities were carried out between August and November.

Although the bounty period ended, the Editorial Board decided to continue managing the account throughout December in order to preserve the results achieved, maintain editorial consistency, and avoid a sudden decline in activity, reach, and engagement within the Spanish speaking community.

Given the importance of sustaining an active and orderly presence during this transitional phase, this TIP is submitted to account for the work performed during December.

- We kept running the Polkadot Spanish Twitter account in December.
- The old project ended, but we wanted to keep the account active.
- This helped keep our Spanish community interested and informed.
- We did this so there wouldn't be a big drop in followers or interaction.
- It was a smooth change to a new way of running the account.
- This report asks for payment for that December work.
