Greetings, Polkadot community! I'm Jason, also known as Crypto Crow. I launched my crypto YouTube channel in November 2017 and have been a dedicated supporter of Cardano. However, my content extends beyond Cardano, encompassing various altcoins, news discussions, and tutorials. Recently, I caught wind of Charles Hoskinson's announcement about utilizing Polkadot's framework to construct application chains. This development has piqued my interest, as it suggests Polkadot has something significant to offer. I'm eager to delve into and promote the Polkadot brand to provide valuable insights to my audience.

Revised Tip Proposal After Community Feedback - Dotgraphic 

- A community is discussing a referendum to stop another referendum called 265.
- They want to prevent it because they think it's not fair.
- The person writing believes it’s better to cancel than to kill it.
- This way, the people who suggested it won't lose their money.
- Referendum 265 wants to get money for a meme coin called $PINK.
- The coin's goal is to promote fun over serious technology.
- The writer thinks there's a small chance this could be a real idea.

referendum_canceller

WHO: Will, Paradox, Ecosystem Janitor
WHAT: Canceling Referendum 265 to prevent its enactment under unscrupulous conditions without punishing the proposer's deposit.
PRICE/TIMEFRAME/RESOURCES: Not specified.

Cancel Referendum 265 - Funding 999,999 DOT for meme coin in the name of Polkadot Marketing.

This is a marketing proposal for a Polkadot memecoin called $PINK. The proposal focuses on promoting the "pinkness" of Polkadot, claiming that it is the best feature of the project. The proposal requests 999,999 DOT to market the pinkness of Polkadot to the world. The $PINK community is small but growing, with a Twitter handle and a YouTube channel in progress. The proposal argues that pinkness is valuable because many popular things are pink, such as Barbie, bubblegum, and diamonds. The $PINK project will be issued on AssetHub, and the proposal asks for funding from the Polkadot treasury. The proposal also includes a cost breakdown and a plan for sustainability based on the pinkness of Polkadot.

Cancelled

big_spender

**Proposal Summary** This is a marketing proposal for the most amazing Polkadot project ever: \*\*$PINK\*\*, a Polkadot memecoin, shilling less tech and more pink. The best thing about Polkadot isn't its technology. The best thing about Polkadot is its pinkness. Pinkness makes DOT's price go up. Uniswap is Ethereum's most valuable DeFi project. Why? Because unicorns are pink, and everyone knows that all projects want to be unicorns. We are requesting 999,999 DOT to market the best part of Polkadot - being pink - to the entire world.  
**Pink Community** $PINK already has impressive community stats: - Twitter Handle: https://twitter.com/pinkonomic - 2 Followers - YouTube Channel: (In Process) - No subscribers yet. With this proposal, we can create an even pinker and more amazing $PINK community to promote Polkadot’s best feature: being pink.  
**Value to DOT Holders** All DOT holders know that the best thing about Polkadot is that it’s pink. Dr. Gavin Wood clearly agrees; otherwise, why would Polkadot’s logo be pink? To vote nay on this $PINK proposal would be to directly go against Gavin. But for those who are on the fence, here is a short list of amazing things that are pink: - Barbie - Bubblegum - The Pink Panther - Flamingos - The Mean Girls movie - Diamonds - The singer PINK - Muppet Characters - The Grand Budapest Hotel - Bows - DOT We could go on listing more amazing things that are pink, but the above examples should convince even the biggest doubters of pink’s clear value proposition. $PINK will also be issued on AssetHub, given Polkadot’s amazing security, which, despite being a tech feature, is probably Polkadot’s most pink tech feature. Pinkness = DOT price goes up.  
**Why Go To The Treasury** The $PINK community is made up of builders, many of whom joined the Polkadot community a few days ago. Raising money from VCs takes up a lot of time, and we’d rather focus on building $PINK. Pinkness is a common good, and the Polkadot treasury exists to fund common goods. Pinkness is also the best thing about Polkadot. For these reasons, this proposal is entitled to the maximum amount of funding (999,999 DOT).  
**Pink Budget** It should be obvious why this proposal is a no-brainer, but we understand that many voters value transparency. As a self-declared common good project, we also have a social contract with the Gov1 Committee, who is supportive of this proposal. For anyone interested in evidence of this social contract, we tried sending messages to former council members to confirm, but we were unable to figure out how to use Element, given it is quite complex. Since we are too busy building, we didn’t have the time to figure it out, so you'll just have to trust us. But because we care a lot about the Polkadot ecosystem, we have provided a cost breakdown below. !\[image\](https://i.ibb.co/Wn8SjzZ/13473-PINK-1700159433338.png) **Pink Path to Sustainability** $PINK’s path to sustainability is obvious: its pinkness.  
**If This Doesn’t Pass** We highly doubt this proposal won't pass because of $PINK’s awesomeness.  
**Conclusion** The best thing about Polkadot is not its technology. The best thing about Polkadot is its pinkness. Everyone knows that pinkness makes DOT’s price go up. Funding this proposal = DOT price goes up.

Proposal Summary: $PINK, a Polkadot memecoin, wants 999,999 DOT to market Polkadot's best feature - being pink. The proposal highlights the value of pinkness to DOT holders and includes a budget breakdown. The proposal's goal is to create a pinker and more amazing $PINK community to promote Polkadot's pinkness.

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.

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.

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.

**Team:** Firoz

**About:** In January 2018, Firoz launched his cryptocurrency YouTube channel, DecentralisedChain. Employing a blend of educational and news-oriented content, Firoz takes a straightforward approach in his videos. He distills the latest crypto news and market trends, offering insights into potential market movements based on input from professional crypto traders. However, the growth of his channel has been somewhat constrained due to a reduction in video production during the recent bear market. Given this trajectory, we identify him as a low impact content creator on Youtube for Polkadot's marketing initiative.

Youtube channel: [DecentralisedChain](https://www.youtube.com/c/decentralisedchain) 8,456 subscribers

X profile: [@Decentralised\_C](https://twitter.com/Decentralised_C) 2,743 followers

DecentralisedChain has amassed 2.7k views in the past 28 days, with an impressive average watch time of 5 minutes and 50 seconds, reflecting a robust audience retention rate exceeding 50%. These statistics, visible in the screenshot below, are considered valuable for sustaining audience engagement. The standout video for DecentralisedChain is the "Staking Solana for Best Returns," created two years ago, which has garnered an impressive 46,000 views. Recognizing the potential, PolkaMarketing believes that a similarly structured video explaining how Nova Wallet operates on Polkadot could attract more users to stake their DOT, leveraging the wallet's user-friendly features.

**Description:**

I am pursuing funding to produce three videos that I anticipate will provide significant value to my audience and effectively showcase Polkadot, ultimately generating a substantial impact within the current Polkadot community and enhancing the brand's visibility. After all, what is a brand with exceptional technology if it lacks a thriving user base?

The videos I 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. Cardano's recent announcement expressing the intention to develop on Polkadot's framework, Substrate, will also be highlighted, showcasing its technological capabilities.

**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.

The overall expense for the outlined tasks amounts to $1,500, and my objective is to finish this work within approximately three weeks upon receiving the payment. I plan to deliver an average of one video every week during this timeframe.

**Disclaimer:** Under the recent guidelines established by Giotto, the PolkaMarketing agency is entitled to a 10% fee for successfully onboarding the DecentralisedChain brand to promote Polkadot. The agency's role includes advancing the Polkadot marketing narrative and overseeing the entire process on behalf of DecentralisedChain. While DecentralisedChain is 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.

DecentralisedChain proposes to create three videos about Polkadot for $1,500, to be completed in approximately three weeks. The videos will cover topics such as what Polkadot is, the top three parachains on Polkadot, and the best Polkadot mobile wallet. The goal is to provide value to the audience and enhance Polkadot's visibility. PolkaMarketing will receive a 10% fee for successfully onboarding DecentralisedChain.

DECENTRALISEDCHAIN - Low impact Polkadot media promotion

**Team:** Mason Versluis & his partner Meg

**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.

**Allocation Request:** 168,000 USD using Subscan EMA7 of 10/11/2023 ($5 per DOT)

**Curator Reward:** 10% of allocation divided by all the curators

**Curator's PureProxy:** 16Hbza9mgMR1xWbAhZMnbJQLKYmmGG1GSndpRAdNumhuRAuP

**Short Description:** Create a bounty to attract potential partners and businesses in Brazil to the Polkadot ecosystem, aiming to position Polkadot as the leading blockchain platform in the country.

**Context:** This bounty aims to tap into the growing interest in cryptocurrencies and blockchain technology in Brazil. The country's market is booming, and if Polkadot wants to seize this opportunity to expand its presence the time is now. Large entities like NuBank and the Government of Rio de Janeiro are exploring blockchain solutions in Brazil with Polygon and Solana.

**Objective:** Convert interested individuals and businesses in Brazil into active Polkadot builders or partners to establish Polkadot as the top blockchain ecosystem in the country.

**Why This Matters:** Brazil's cryptocurrency market is rapidly growing, with millions of investors and businesses entering the space. Brazil's digital landscape, with high mobile and internet usage, makes it an ideal market for blockchain adoption.

**The Team:** The team leading this effort includes Luis Fernando Dal Porto, John Rhodel Bartolomé, Gabriel Bonugli, and Carlos Sawaki, all with relevant backgrounds and experience in the blockchain industry in areas such as Development, Marketing and Project Management.

**Problem Statement:** Polkadot is a powerful blockchain platform, but awareness of its potential is still limited. Other projects are making inroads in Brazil, and we want to secure our position in this growing market. We propose a bounty to foster business development and attract new partners to Polkadot.

**Proposal Objectives:** Our primary goal is to convert interested parties into active Polkadot builders or partners. We have identified a substantial pipeline of businesses looking to integrate blockchain technology and plan to provide them with the necessary resources and support.

**Milestones and Actions:** Over six months, we will initiate contact, hold meetings, qualify leads, and provide support to help at least three businesses start their projects on Polkadot.

Parachains supporting our cause:

**Compensation:** Rewards are based on goals achieved, with multipliers for successful leads and partnerships.

**Bounty Curators:** We propose **Ivy Network, Nick Dunford, Saxemberg, and Zoe Meckbach** as curators.

**Quick Q&A:** We are not considering the upcoming Incentive Pools Proposal due to time sensitivity. Three businesses may seem low, but they are of high quality and often lead to more projects. We believe a bounty is the best approach, as it rewards success and aligns with Polkadot's decentralized nature. We have the experience and local connections to make this initiative successful. While a global initiative was considered, regional focus allows for quicker action. Blockchain adoption in Brazil is on the rise And we are considering the recently announced resources from the Web3 Foundation.

MarketAcross is a company that helps with public relations and marketing for businesses, especially those in the world of cryptocurrencies and blockchain technology. They have worked with many big names like Binance, Crypto.com, and even Polkadot itself. They want to help Polkadot and its related projects by creating and sharing news, articles, and other information.

MarketAcross has a special service called Chainwire that helps share news about blockchain projects with many different media outlets. They want to use this service to help Polkadot too.

Their plan is to:
1. Write at least 75 unique articles about Polkadot and its projects in just 3-4 months.
2. Share these articles and other information on social media platforms like Reddit, Twitter, and YouTube.

They will also help Polkadot with:
- Sharing news about new products, partnerships, and other important events.
- Helping Polkadot's leaders share their ideas and knowledge.
- Getting Polkadot's message out to people all around the world.

Elad Mor, the CEO of MarketAcross, believes they can help Polkadot be even more successful and is happy to answer any questions.

**Proposer:** MarketAcross ([https://marketacross.com/)](https://marketacross.com/\))

**Contact:** @Marketacross on Telegram (Elad Mor, CEO & Co-founder)

**Requested DOT:** 21,400 DOT (~100K Euro equiv. based on DOT/USD rate of $5.00 EMA7)

### **About MarketAcross:**

We actually spearheaded Polkadot's PR & content marketing in the good ol' days, working closely with Parity and the Web3 Foundation. After onboarded them back in early 2020, we helped them pre-launch and then push the Polkadot / Kusama narratives for 2.5 years or so. Another example to showcase our deep involvement with Polkadot, we’re also running 3 nodes as part of the 1KV program (2 on Kusama and one on Polkadot).

We've also worked with almost all of the significant parachains in the Polkadot ecosystem like **Astar (still ongoing + last 2 years) Moonbeam, Acala, Centrifuge, Kilt, Manta, Parallel finance, Polkadex**, and many others.

Aside to specifically working with Polkadot and the Polkadot ecosystem, we've been working with big brands in the space like **Binance, Crypto.com, TRON, Polygon (worked on the Matic to Polygon rebrand), Tezos, eToro, Consensys, Bybit, Cardano, NEAR protocol, Fantom, dYdX** and many more.

**We're also a success-based agency with guaranteed deliverables**, unlike traditional PR agencies, we only charge for what we are able to deliver (no retainer fees). So our clients are able to control the amount/volume and the velocity of our work at all times.

**3\. Growth hacking and social amplifications**

-   Reddit and Social amplification - Amplifying the media hits on Reddit to create virality. Getting more eyeballs and amplifying our top articles through our vast reddit network - we guarantee to upvote to at least top 5 on any top subreddit we would choose to go for. We have the power and resources to make stories go viral on Reddit, whether they are PR hits or blog posts. Our network of influencers, high-karma accounts, and content will make sure our posts get great traction in subreddits such as /r/cryptocurrency, /r/ethtrader, /r/bitcoin.
    
-   In specific storylines and angles – we would use our Youtube connections to push specific narratives (Not KOL or influencer marketing) pitching editorial stories when we see that there’s an opportunity to do so. We’re in contact with 100+ KOLs in EU, LATAM, MENA areas, and work on a blend of micro-influencers as well as very large channels - this is not a full scale influencer marketing offering, but we do reserve the option to pitch the PR coverage we’d create to influencers in order to amplify our coverage’s reach. (We can suggest a dedicated Youtube influencer campaign as phase 2 as well).
    
-   AMAs and podcasts - We will work to connect with leading channels in Finance/Crypto and generate coverage to the Polkadot ecosystem through highlighting the Parity executive team or Polkadot core contributors. This will be achieved by setting up AMAs on telegram or pitching podcasts / youtube channels.
    

**4\. Advisory, Campaign management and reporting**

-   Advisory - Provide our experienced inputs on on-going matters, whether PR or marketing relevant as well as access to biz-dev opportunities through our network.
-   Designated account managers – Who will be there for anything and everything.
-   Moderation and reports - Biweekly reporting and/or calls on-demand, monthly reports of coverage we secured.

As I’ve mentioned, we feel like we’ve been one of the drivers to Polkadot’s tremendous success back in 2020 and 2021, there have been a lot of changes to the foundation behind Polkadot and we feel like it’s time to get back to the good ol’ roots and help deliver on Polkadot’s promise ;) Happy to answer any questions or provide any further information.

Sincerely,

Elad Mor
