Hello,

This is a great proposal for events like local meetups. We often have a long process to get through all the steps for space rent/food/drinks even if it is just ~150 EUR/event.

I see it as a good chance to have more quality meetups to happen, where the organizers can focus more on organizing and less on the "how do I get the money for it" part.

The proposal for the initial composition of the multisig, e.g. the curators, is one member from Web3 Foundation and two global head ambassadors. The signatories of the general curator from Web3 Foundation won’t receive any rewards. Please find the proposal for the general curators of this bounty here

I have tried to contact the Bounty curators several times with no success. Please come to the Kusama/Polkadot direction channel.

These bounties need to be open for community and I am not able to find any social media links how to reach curators or ask them the questions.

Hello Coinstudio, thank you for your comment.

Where did you try to contact us? If I am not mistaken, I never received a DM from you. I am from time to time on the Polkadot Direction channel, my last comment was also posted there on February 15.

Please note that we have a page with information.

Hi Elodie,

Bill kindly provided your account in Kusama channel so I sent you a DM.

Please note that we have a page with information.

Maybe adding some social account to reach curators would make it easier to reach you as I cant seem to find any on that page.

Curator set update here:

After awarding over 100 events in the last year we have received feedback from the community of Polkadot event proposers/producers accessing this bounty that efficiency of bounty review process could be optimized.

With the popularity this bounty has achieved (and the DOT awards requested scaling while the USD price of DOT has dropped and the extraordinary nature of these events has increased), we have been necessarily moving slowly through queue so as to provide proper feedback and responsible review.

As such we are taking an opportunity to expand the curator set to include two more curators to the set, bring our multisig threshold to a 3/5, and introducing a new program for subcurators to join the curators in assisting bounty review.

Please keep your eyes peeled for an updated proposal that we will be submitting through an OpenGov proposal soon!

Thanks so much Dotsama fam!

-Events Bounty Team

@mark.ryan 

its fair to reward curators of the bounty programs , for every researched apply, pls add it to new proposal

also I suggest to give Head Ambassadors ability to tip ambassadors for their activities, based on experience we get from this bounty program. It will increase the efficiency of Ambassador Program

Dearest Polkadot Events community,

Please be aware that with the Events Bounty v2 changes incoming, proposal submissions and awards are on-hold until a new curator set has been approved by the community and can begin reviewing events applications and issuing funding.

We apologize if this causes any inconvenience and encourage you to continue seeking events funding once these changes have been implemented. If you would like to support or comment on the Events Bounty v2 proposal please feel free to do so at https://polkadot.polkassembly.io/post/1931

Thank you for your understanding and we look forward to bringing to you a new and improved power-set Events Bounty curator team to continue supporting Polkadot Events!

Dear Polkadot,

I have been forwarded to this channel from the Polkadout Network.

Who do I get in contact for the following project.

Our Belgium based organisation Digital Currency Academy organises monthly live and online events for crypto investors and enthousiasts to educate on Blockchain, Technology, and crypto projects.

We had educational sessions with Chainlink, Bitvavo, ICP, Hedera, The Graph and more. 

For our users it's not very clear what the Polkadot ecosystem is all about and I want to propose to organise an educational event about it.

We are a community sponsored by the Belgian Government and Bitvavo. With 270 paying members and 8000 free members.

You can find more about us at www.digitalcurrencyacademy.be

Here is a short video of one our events:

Can anyone help us with this proposal?

You can also contact me on email: gaetan@digitalcurrencyacademy.be

Kind regards

This would make it much easier to support events going forward. I am strongly in favor of this Bounty.
