I am Cervera and I have been creating educational tutorial videos and interviews about the Polkadot and Kusama ecosystems and offering community support since April 19, 2021 on the [Cryptonitas YouTube channel](https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCsP0zGvvzB4RGyDYHkDdmUA). Currently, on my YouTube channel you can find two main playlists, one for [Polkadot](https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLbGd7ZIYqZAPR14k1-zSpznR-HSNYHaqa) and one for [Kusama](https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLbGd7ZIYqZAP3PysUxiwYGW7aHsC60TnN).

In addition to creating educational content, I have been contributing to the community in different ways: supporting the community by answering questions on the Telegram channels and YouTube; through participation in different events (both as a speaker and as a member of the organizational team); with the creation of events, such as the Decoded 2022 viewing party in Valencia; and the creation of a Nomination Pool on both Polkadot ([Pool #61](https://polkadot.js.org/apps/?rpc=wss%3A%2F%2Frpc.polkadot.io#/staking/pools), in the top 5 pools with more staked DOT) and Kusama, among other things.

The following proposal seeks funding for the production of the next educational content about the Polkadot ecosystem. This proposal is born as an extension in order to continue creating content and offering support to the community. The objective of this proposal is to create an informed, educated and valuable community that knows how to make real use of the network. Given the market situation and the general state of the community, we have decided to reduce both the number of videos to be produced and the budget per video compared to previous proposals.

**What return will the network get with this proposal?**
1. Truthful and high-quality tutorial videos not made so far in Spanish.
2. Support to users through social networks and, if the situation requires it, video calls.
3. More than 100,000 additional DOT staked.

**How will these actions be demonstrated?**
1. The tutorial videos can be seen on the Cryptonitas YouTube channel, will be freely accessible and can be shared on platforms such as Polkadot Hub and the Polkadot and Kusama groups. We consider that views are not the most important thing about a video, but rather the number of users who use the network thanks to that content. Therefore, its usefulness will be evaluated through a form that will demonstrate the number of wallets that are using the network through our content.
2. Users who are supported will fill out a form where they can see the quality of care and the effectiveness of the ecosystem's query resolution.
3. The amount of staked DOT can be verified in the increase in staked DOT of the Cryponitas pool (Pool #61). Additionally, users who have been introduced to staking by Cryptonitas, have been supported, and do not stake through a pool, will send a small amount of DOT to the Cryptonitas wallet which will then be returned to them, simply for the purpose of prove this metric.

What do we base on to reach the 100,000 DOT metric?
This is approximately the amount obtained in the last 6 months in the Cryptonitas pool.

The requested amount is divided in 3 installments.
