Gerard, a Spanish-speaking content creator, has submitted a proposal to create high-quality videos about Polkadot for the YouTube channel TuPrimerBitcoin. He has reduced the amount of DOT requested by 75% based on feedback from the community. Gerard's goal is to maximize Polkadot's reach on YouTube, educate viewers, and increase involvement in Polkadot's governance. The content will cover updates, news, ecosystem evolution, on-chain data, and encourage audience participation in OpenGov. Gerard is requesting $25,150 (5000 DOTs) to create 12 long videos, 7 short videos, and 1 interview over a 3-month period. He emphasizes transparency and is open to questions from the community.

Executed

I have submitted again my proposal after all the feedback from my last proposal, where the conclusions were that, on the one hand, some big content creators and important figures in the ecosystem told me that the amount of DOT was too high, and I am sorry for those in the community that felt attacked by the price I asked for. On the other hand, a report done by @LV especifically done for my channel and analytics showed good feedback and metrics: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1L2GG4wGjCOfkEkZqrnXOZDb-2RVe1OjwihA5P8OksNw/edit?usp=sharing That is why I am asking 75% less of what I asked, and I am maintining the number of long videos for the commmunity. Hi Polkadot community, I'm Gerard, an influential content creator currently in Spain and leader in Polkadot content creation in Spanish speaking countries. On Youtube, TuPrimerBitcoin has more than 22,000 subscribers and an average of 7000 views, 800 likes and +100 comments per video: https://www.youtube.com/@TuPrimerBitcoin/featured Throughout this bear market, I have been proactively creating content about Polkadot, its project, its ecosystem and its entire evolution, and I want to get even more involved with this proposal. My goal is very clear, to create videos about Polkadot of the highest quality as you can see in my channel, to maximize the scope of Polkadot and its ecosystem on Youtube Spanish speaking with dozens of thousand views. Also, to be able to educate viewers and enact more involvement with Polkadot's governance in Polka Assembly, the nomination pools for staking, in short to attract more users to the Polkadot network. To do so, I want to offer an exceptional and complete service: 12 videos on Youtube 7 videos shorts for Youtube 1 interview with an industry leader This content will cover in full: -Updates on Polkadot -News and exciting collaborations -Ecosystem and parachains evolution -Tracking on-chain data and wallets on Polkadot -Encouraging the audience to get involved in OpenGov. We cannot leave aside the great Spanish-speaking potential in the crypto world. With more than 550 million speakers worldwide, it is key to inform and attract the maximum number of users to the Polkadot ecosystem in order to continue growing as a project. Requested Funds: For the creation of this content to be delivered and finalized in a period of 3 months, seeking $25150 (equivalent to 5000 DOTs at a rate of $5.03 using EMA30) as of the moment this proposal is being written in order to professionally make these 12 videos, 7 shorts, and 1 interview all for YouTube on the TuPrimerBitcoin channel, and cover information gathering, scripting, editing, and attractive thumbnail designs.

**About us:** Mason Versluis, also known as Crypto Mason on Youtube and Mason Versluis on X, has emerged as a Cryptocurrency Content Creator & initiated his YouTube channel just prior to the onset of the last bull market in December 2020 and has since cultivated a substantial following. His distinctive and enthusiastic style of promoting specific cryptocurrency brands has resonated with viewers, evident in the energetic and positive vibes showcased in his videos, which often translate to a bullish sentiment for his audience. Upon reviewing his official statistics, it becomes apparent that his channel has experienced significant growth compared to other creators starting around the same time as him, particularly during the bull market. Given this trajectory, we identify him as a Medium Impact Creator on Youtube and High Impact on TikTok for Polkadot's marketing initiative.

Meg, Mason's partner, operates her own independent Cryptocurrency YouTube channel, named megbzk. Although she began later than her partner, publishing her first video in September 2021, she shares a similar style in video content characterized by eye-catching thumbnails and highly engaging positive content. Despite launching her channel later than Mason she has seen a very good growth. Our evaluation based on her channel statistics places her as a Small to Medium Impact Creator on Youtube and Medium Impact on TikTok for Polkadot's marketing initiative.

The videos we will create are (titles may be subject to change):

**1\. What is Polkadot?** - In this video, we will delve into Polkadot as a brand, exploring its offerings and accomplishments since 2020. Additionally, we will discuss the features of Polkadot 2.0, focusing on its coretime functionalities.

**2\. Top 3 Parachains on Polkadot** - In this video, we'll elucidate how the impressive technology of Polkadot has inspired the formation of the top three teams, leading them to construct innovative layer 1 blockchains (parachains) with exceptional products. We'll explore how these endeavors contribute to advancing the Polkadot narrative, drawing in users and new builders, thereby fostering the ecosystem's growth.

**3\. Best Polkadot mobile wallet** - In this tutorial, we'll explore Nova wallet, which we consider the current premier mobile wallet for the Polkadot ecosystem. This user-friendly wallet facilitates seamless transactions, staking, and interaction with other dApps within the ecosystem established by both layer 1 blockchains and layer 2 dApps. The wallet's efficiency has already attracted a substantial user base, and our video aims to further contribute to its popularity.

**Disclaimer:** Under the recent guidelines established by Giotto, the PolkaMarketing agency is entitled to a 10% fee for successfully onboarding Mason Versluis & Meg's brands to promote Polkadot. The agency's role includes advancing the Polkadot marketing narrative and overseeing the entire process on behalf of Mason Versluis & Meg. While Mason & Meg are dedicated to delivering the content promptly upon receiving payment, it's essential to note that no formal contract has been officially executed between the two brands. PolkaMarketing are currently operating in good faith with the expectation that the content delivery will proceed as planned. If this proposal was to be rejected, PolkaMarketing would respect the community's decision and would not be receiving any fee and thus the onboarding work was for free and as a community service.

KryptosChain is proposing a project to create educational content about the Polkadot ecosystem in Spanish. The project aims to reach Latin American and Spanish-speaking audiences who may not understand English well. The team consists of Alina, a content creator in Spanish, and Claudio, a Polkadot Ambassador and Crypto Content Creator. They plan to produce 24 explainer videos and 24 articles over 12 weeks, focusing on Layer 1s (Parachains) and Layer 2s (dApps) in the Polkadot ecosystem. The total cost for the project is $7,500.

\*\*Proposer:\*\* KRYPTOSCHAIN \*\*Address:\*\* 13kzfkXXF7nSCzaMS2Eok8scDS9jZk89yWyfsCBWvDDJKaZy \*\*Contact:\*\* @KryptosChain on X or Telegram. \*\*Duration:\*\* 12 Weeks \*\*Amount:\*\* Around $7,875 including 5% cover in case the price drops (1959.93 with DOT price at $4.018 on EMA7) \*\*Team:\*\* Alina (Content Creator in Spanish) & me, Claudio (Channel Manager) \*\*About me:\*\* My name's Claudio and I'm a Polkadot Ambassador & Crypto Content Creator since 2018 and since the end of 2020 mostly contributed towards the growth of the Polkadot ecosystem through media marketing on Youtube & Twitter under the KryptosChain brand. \[Youtube\](https://www.youtube.com/c/kryptoschain) channel: Over 18,700 subscribers \[X\](https://twitter.com/KryptosChain) profile: Over 5750 followers \*\*About Alina:\*\* Telegram Moderator for a Romanian community & collaborator with Hispanic Telegram communities and has been in crypto for a number of years. She has helped KryptosChain by dubbing cryptocurrency content in the past on the Creadores Web3 Youtube channel for which I used to be an Editor for during WagMedia days. You can find an example video which she has dubbed, \[here\](). In the last year, she has learned a lot about Polkadot and now wants to take the next step forward and start producing content about the Polkadot ecosystem in Spanish. Unfortunately she doesn't speak English, but I believe that by following the KryptosChain method of explainer videos, it will provide value for the hispanic community interested in blockchain and to let them know that Polkadot is more than just the relay chain! \*\*Description:\*\* The KryptosChain brand has supported the Polkadot ecosystem since late 2020, soon after its launch and has acquired quite a community of followers, but many of these followers are from Latin America or Spain and may not understand English so well in order to get value from the videos published due to this language barrier. I therefore decided to launch the initiative of launching the KryptosChain en Español brand (KryptosChain in Spanish) on Youtube, X, Polkaverse & Medium and I believe this video content & article initiative can be of value to that community, as well as to those who are interested in learning more about what the ecosystem has to offer. The current Spanish channels focus mostly on interviews and in depth technical tutorials, but not on explainer videos, which makes the core of Polkadot, its ecosystem of Layer 1s (Parachains) and Layer 2s (the dApps) so that the hispanic community can learn about their existance and what they have to offer and hopefully use some of their products for various needs such as liquid staking, NFT trading etc. This proposal asks the Polkadot Treasury for funding of a total of \*\*24\*\* \*\*explainer educational videos\*\* covering Polkadot's ecosystem , all uploaded to the \[KryptosChainES\](https://www.youtube.com/@KryptosChainES) Youtube channel & \[@KryptosChainES\](https://twitter.com/KryptosChainES) X profile as well as \*\*24 articles\*\* regarding the same topics as the videos, published to both \[Polkaverse\](https://polkaverse.com/11841)(Subsocial) and \[Medium\](https://medium.com/@alynamihaela070) over the course of 12 consecutive weeks after the proposal passes. \*\*Note:\*\* "What is Polkadot Network?" will be created and published for free in the coming days as the initial video while this proposal is in confirmation. The Content will be delivered as following (2 videos and 2 articles about those brands per week): \*\*Week 1:\*\* What is Kusama Network? What is Astar Network? \*\*Week 2:\*\* What is Moonbeam Network? What is RMRK? \*\*Week 3:\*\* What is Ajuna Network? What is Interlay? \*\*Week 4:\*\* What is HydraDX? What is Nova Wallet? (Tutorial) \*\*Week 5:\*\* InvArch Network? What is Subsocial Network? \*\*Week 6:\*\* What is Crust Network? What is Robonomics Network? \*\*Week 7:\*\* What is Nodle?

They also listen to what users want and add new features based on that. You can read more about their plan here: [Kuma Wallet Proposal](https://docs.google.com/document/d/13f6j_-iTajmnkfGWBTxvl6wvDJMZtU1XxpFztJ2yGhU/edit?usp=sharing).

Hi everyone,

[Blockcoders](https://blockcoders.io/) is proud to propose the [Kuma Wallet](https://kumawallet.io/) milestone 5 that will cover SubQuery Integration, Fiat On/Off Ramp with Transak, Cross-chain swaps with HydraDX Omnipool and Community Requested Features support for the last 4 months. [Kuma Wallet](https://kumawallet.io/) is making easy to manage and transfer tokens between relayers and parachains. Built with the user experience in mind.

**Feature set of the proposal (see [proposal](https://docs.google.com/document/d/13f6j_-iTajmnkfGWBTxvl6wvDJMZtU1XxpFztJ2yGhU/edit?usp=sharing))**

-   SubQuery Integration
-   Fiat On/Off Ramp with Transak
-   Cross-chain swaps with HydraDX Omnipool
-   Community Requested Features

**Why Kuma Wallet?**

In today's fragmented blockchain landscape, managing assets across multiple chains is cumbersome and often requires multiple wallets or interfaces. Kuma Wallet addresses this challenge head-on, providing seamless, secure, and efficient asset management across diverse blockchain ecosystems.

At the heart of Kuma Wallet's endeavor is a commitment to fostering an open, equitable, and vibrant ecosystem for blockchain users—regardless of the network they are on. We aim to build and maintain a high-quality, open-source, community-focused, and feature-rich wallet that stands as a beacon of neutrality in a space often fragmented by network biases and limitations.

**Current Metrics**

Over the recent weeks, we have experienced a significant uptick in our user base, showcasing a substantial growth rate of 1900%. This remarkable increase translates to a consistent rise in our weekly users, marking a steady upward trajectory over the depicted period.

Below, we present a graph that encapsulates the weekly user count over the last two months:  
  
![](https://i.ibb.co/tsLXsNk/Weekly-users-vs-Date.png)

This growth is largely attributable to our concerted marketing efforts, enhanced platform functionality, and the robust community engagement strategies we have implemented. Among these, fostering a strong presence within the Polkadot community has been instrumental. Our platform's alignment with the Polkadot ecosystem's objectives has not only catalyzed user adoption but also garnered valuable feedback that has been pivotal in refining our offerings.

**Features**

**SubQuery Network**

Kuma Wallet is currently partnered with SubQuery Network, a cutting-edge data indexing framework that specializes in flexible, reliable, and decentralized APIs tailored for web3 projects. SubQuery's platform offers fast data synchronization, indexing optimizations, and supports over 100 chains, making it a truly multi-chain solution.

Kuma Wallet will achieve extremely fast sync times, enabling a responsive and up-to-date user experience. This technology eliminates the need to rely on websocket RPCs for each supported chain. SubQuery’s multi-chain support aligns perfectly with Kuma Wallet’s vision of seamless cross-chain asset management. SubQuery's GraphQL interface will easily filter, paginate, and aggregate data, enriching the application with dynamic functionalities.

**Transak On-Ramp**

In alignment with Kuma Wallet's vision to make cryptocurrency management and trading as simple and inclusive as possible, we are working on integrating Transak, a globally recognized financial services gateway. This strategic collaboration will offer our users a frictionless experience in buying and selling tokens directly through the Kuma Wallet interface, using traditional fiat methods like credit cards, Apple Pay, and bank accounts.

Initially, the supported tokens for the on/off ramp functionality will include Polkadot (DOT), Kusama (KSM), Astar (ASTR), Moonriver (MOVR), and Moonbeam (GLMR). Furthermore, our collaboration with Transak extends beyond these offerings, as we are working together to include additional Parachains in the near future.

**Swapping Cross-Chain**

Cross-chain asset management is the future of decentralized finance, and Kuma Wallet aims to be at the forefront of this revolution. To offer a seamless experience to users who wish to transfer and swap assets across multiple blockchains, we're introducing the Swapping Cross-Chain feature. Our unique approach involves utilizing the Ink! smart contract language and the HydraDX Omnipool.

**Community Requested Features**

A crucial element that sets Kuma Wallet apart in the competitive landscape of digital asset management is our commitment to community engagement. We believe that the best way to build a product that serves the needs of its users is by listening to them directly. Therefore, we're dedicating a portion of our development resources specifically to implement features and improvements requested by the Kuma Wallet community.
