[THIS IS GOING TO FAIL ANYWAYS, NO MATTER WHAT YOU VOTE. CHOSE A WRONG PRE-IMAGE.]
Background
I am the only Polkadot Ambassador in Finland, so far. I have been working to establish the basis for a local community here, completely on a voluntary basis. As part of that slow but steady progress, I found organisers for one of the four European Polkadot Decoded Viewing Parties. I have also created connections to reliable crypto influencers and citizen journalists. This is my first ever OpenGov proposal, aiming to learn the ropes so I can teach others later. (I know the pre-image was wrongly selected but I'm here to make mistakes so others don't have to).
Hopium Podcast
Hopium is a Finnish language podcast about crypto and blockchain, available on <a href="https://open.spotify.com/show/0hrjC7sYtO3LicrLxyvF6H">Spotify</a> and on <a href="https://www.youtube.com/@hopium_fi4774">YouTube</a>. It is a citizen journalism initiative outside of our "Dotsama bubble". I was invited to talk about Polkadot in their 44th episode. This was the first time ever that Polkadot is discussed in any Finnish media. Based on the feedback received, it will not be the last one. The hosts would like to do a follow up episode, delving deeper into Polkadot DeFi.
Time investment
Although the groundwork has taken months, the preparation for this podcast specifically was about eight hours and the recording itself about two hours.
Tip
The tip that I&rsquo;m asking for is for 10 hours of work, 10 DOT per hour, 100 DOT in total.
Reasoning
On our journey to futher 'human decentralization', tips for those who represent Polkadot in the media should function as incentives, at least before Ambassadors collective is in full steam.

Hi,

This is Tomi, a Polkadot Ambassador from Finland.

On our journey to futher decentralization, should it be customary to tip those who represent Polkadot in the media?

Before I can teach the OpenGov process for others, I wanted to test it out myself and thus created [a Small Tipper proposal](https://polkadot.polkassembly.io/referenda/60) for my participation in a crypto Podcast called Hopium, a small citizen journalism initiative outside of "the Dotsama bubble".

Please [go vote](https://polkadot.polkassembly.io/referenda/60) and comment below your reasoning.

Should media representation be compensated?

Make some on-chain remark.

## Complexity
- `O(1)`

: 
   
1. I am the only Polkadot Ambassador in Finland, and I've been taking steps towards establishing the basis of a local community. 
2. I was invited to appear on a Finnish language podcast about crypto and blockchain, Hopium, to discuss Polkadot for the first time in Finnish media. 
3. The groundwork, preparation and recording took a total of 10 hours, and I am asking for a tip of 10 DOT per hour, for a total of 100 DOT. 
4. My reasoning is that tips for those who represent Polkadot in the media should act as incentives until the Ambassador collective is fully operational.
