Requested: 500 DOT
Greetings! It's <a href="https://x.com/judashegemony" target="_blank" rel="noopener">JUDASFEELING</a>
Following the retroactive tipping culture and inspired by Goku, I&rsquo;m also stepping up to request a retroactive tip for my contributions to the ecosystem from september 2024 until today and next 3 months.&nbsp;This will also let me see how the community reflects on my impact.
Requested 500 DOT's is a full 2-3 month salary in my region. With this I could increase my involvement and contribution to Polkadot media significantly, so I suggest the community to evaluate whether my already made contribution and the one I am going to make in the next 3 months is commensurate with the requested reward or not.
If YES &mdash; which I very much hope, I will be able to spend the next 3 months implementing my further media plans. Which of course, although not to a significant extent, will still help Polkadot. As for me, this is now more relevant than ever in connection with the current market conditions.&nbsp;
If NOT &mdash; instead of full-time work for Polkadot I will have to change my focus to&nbsp;my WEB2 work, and reduce my contribution to Polkadot media.
So i just want to check if the community willing to provide me full time job for the next 3 months so I can give more Polkadot Media or not.

In addition to this, I am really involved in many russian-speaking communities on different social networks such as TikTok, YouTube, Discord and Telegram and help learn Polkadot and why it can be and should be choice of anyone. There were a lot of jokes that I am a ambassador because I often brought up topics about Polkadot.
&nbsp;
Please note that it is very important for me to show polite behavior, even in the most difficult situations. With my behavior and the style of my posts, I intend to make people feel like they are talking to a pleasant and very erudite person. And what kind of person, such are the projects he chooses.
&nbsp;
My content is different from Goku, his content focused on the technical side of Polkadot, which is really necessary for Polkadot - to explain how it works in a popular way.&nbsp;
My content has less technical explanations about how Polkadot works, instead it has more of a supportive, mass-positive nature, which is necessary or not you will decide.&nbsp;
If you are honest, you will confirm that 3 months ago the atmosphere around Polkadot was not as positive as it is now. In many ways, the mood is dictated by the price, but it was important that positive content around Polkadot appeared as often in the news feed as around other hype projects. We are no worse, and thanks to frequent positive posts, many people got more faith, many did not sell and stayed with us. Emotions are a very powerful thing, especially in crypto and especially in a bear market.
&nbsp;
Q&amp;A
Question:&nbsp;How can we trust that job is not done yet will be also done in terms?
Answer: You do not need to trust, I ask for a tip only for the work already done. Because it would be unfair to get guaranteed money for an unguaranteed results. As an example I used <a href="referenda/569?tab=description" target="_blank" rel="noopener">first Goku proposal</a> where he asked 900 DOT for 6 months of work, so i just divided that number by 2. Work for the next 3 months I inserted to acquaint you with my further plans, which may influence your decision on this proposal. Like you, I am a Polkadot enthusiast, even though I am planning to dedicate 6 months in the end, I still ask for a symbolic payment, because thanks to it I will really be able to do useful things.&nbsp;
This is truly my desire to prove myself in this ecosystem and I will be grateful to you - the community for the opportunity given to me. You will literally grow and inspire talent (me) with the government tool.&nbsp;And yes, I am indeed limited by the need to receive a salary (from web2 work or web3), as are many of you.&nbsp;
&nbsp;
I am deeply aware of the community's reluctance to spend resources on unofficial (unpaid) ambassadors, and I know for sure that there are people who do this mission better than me, but recent market conditions (the upcoming altseason requiring a full mobilization of all the noise the community has)&nbsp;and leaving my web2 job gave me the idea to use one of the utilities of owning a DOT token &mdash; create this treasury proposal.
"Funding such people is not necessary, but it promises us benefits more than loses. By encouraging such talents as this guy, we motivate them to new highs." &mdash; Goku.
