### Summary of the Post

1. **Funds Issue**: Jay Chrawnna mistakenly set up Ref. 1303 with a proxy address on the Relay Chain, making the funds inaccessible on Asset Hub.
2. **Solution**: A new referendum, Ref. 1353, was created to ratify the payout. The pre-image was pulled just before the confirmation period ended.
3. **Alternative Solutions**:
   - Submitting a Root Ref to replicate the Relay Proxy on Asset Hub was rejected as it would occupy an important track for a minor issue.
   - Waiting for Pure Proxy Replication to be merged into Polkadot was also rejected as it was not a priority and would delay the payout.
4. **Kus Public Broadcasting Services**: The proposal aims to extend Kus services for 9 months, ensuring high-quality governance platforms and thought leadership for the Polkadot network.
5. **Collaboration with Marketing Bounty**: KusNews and external broadcasting will collaborate with the Marketing Bounty to enhance outreach, ad-buying practices, and event coordination.
6. **Budget and Operations**: The Kus has efficiently used only 69% of the requested budget but needs an extension due to increased staking competition and slower industry growth.
7. **Performance Metrics**: Detailed statistics on ad impressions, engagements, video views, and other metrics are provided to showcase the effectiveness of Kus's outreach programs.
8. **Feedback and Transparency**: The Kus encourages community feedback and provides links to detailed reports and audits for transparency.
