Refill for marketing bounty number #33 - 500k DOT

The Spanish bounty has been criticized for being ineffective and self-serving. Some people think there should be bounties for other countries too, like China, India, and France. Many activities in the Spanish bounty are already covered by other bounties, like events and marketing bounties, which are managed better.

The person who wrote this wants to talk to the current curators to see if the bounty can be fixed or if it's better to end it. They propose removing the curators first, which could lead to either replacing them or ending the bounty later.

WHAT: The proposal suggests cleaning up the Spanish bounty due to its ineffectiveness and controversy in the ecosystem. It proposes removing the curators and replacing them with more effective ones.
