Proposer: MASON_VERSLUIS

Address: 12bEk3M3EHuvQkXSbj7UTcusc22jtxSwj4qKMsBiEp6UYPSh

Contact: @masonversluis on X (This account has been verified and is mapped to the official X account to prove legitimacy)

Duration: ~ 10 days after payment is received (estimated on Dec 18th)

Amount: $27,500 (5,304.73 DOT with DOT price at $5.184 EMA7)

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.

Description:** We are pursuing funding to produce the following:

  • 3 x dedicated YouTube videos on CryptoMason's channel
  • 3 x dedicated YouTube videos on Megbzk's channel
  • 1 x Tik Tok on CryptoMasun's channel
  • 1 x Tik Tok on Megbzk's channel

The videos we 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.

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.

On Tik Tok:

Short and sweet explainers of Polkadot on each channel, both Mason's and Meg's

The overall expense for the outlined tasks amounts to $25,000 as part of a whole package, and our objective is to finish this work within approximately ten days upon receiving the payment. We plan to deliver an average of one video every three days during this timeframe.

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

I've never heard of these Youtubers before, but it seems they have high reach so maybe it will help Polkadot. Aye from me

Good luck!

You forgot to mention you have a financial incentive for this proposal to pass.

Also interesting that you claim not to know this guy, when you - PolkaMarketing - actually brought him into the ecosystem.

@Giotto

I appreciate your efforts to improve marketing on Polkadot.
However, aligning with scammers like KC was not the best move.

Certainly a whale like you can use his influence to forward marketing in a structured, meaningful way with reliable people from the ecosystem.

Have you considered posting on https://forum.polkadot.network to start a discussion?
