2 - Motivation
Promote communication and content creation about Polkadot and Kusama in Twitter threads - a social media platform with the widest reach and engagement in crypto - and articles published on Medium and Polkaverse.
Educational and Advertising
Create content and narratives about Polkadot and Kusama in a less technical and more digestible manner for users within the ecosystem and those outside the Polkadot bubble. Storytelling is essential for educating and sharing news about technical aspects.

What is the amount requested?
200 DOT
What is the address of the fund recipient?

Hello @Pitcoin,
I went through your content, and while reading I started thinking that the articles were lacking structure. Each article felt like being exposed to flashes of sentences and memey images rather than a well-structured article that streams information. Also, there are too many images in your articles. But then I noticed that the articles are actually just your X threads copied and pasted one after another.
Which brings me to, you state that you are asking for funds for 14 pieces of content, but in reality this is only 7 pieces of content, duplicated on X and Polkaverse.
Amount asked is not a lot, and I find effort valuable. but I don't find it integral that you're inflating your content count. Nay from me.
PS#1 If it was not about the integrity of the proposal, I would still think twice before granting ~250USD (200DOT * 9USD / 7) per each of your content.
PS#2 I find your efforts valuable, but you should work more on your content. There should be more to it than flashing tweets in a thread.

Thanks for your output, @helikon
I understand your view but please I am no inflating anything (that’s not my code of conduct). Also, X users and polkaverse users are not the same which brings different target-public
I could ask for funds to pay ADS (as a lot of other creators used to do) but instead I am asking for tips to rewards content in different platforms in an organic way.
Also, I updated the followers I've gained in both platforms compared with my last proposal rewarded last month, which shows people inside and outside Polkadot community are getting aware about these topics I wrote.
Nay is totally okay — if it does not bring value to the community, I get it.
Always community first.
Thanks again for your PoV (:
