I understand very well that not being actively involved in the international Polkadot community (although I always read), you probably don't know me. However, I believe that Polkadot's open gov was also created to allow people who contribute or have contributed "from a distance" to be known.
This is a correction of proposal #608 now placed in Unnote!&nbsp;
As approved in other cases like proposal #486 by Csaint02 or proposal #569, I am requesting a tip for the many videos made on YouTube to introduce people to Polkadot and its entire ecosystem: (educational videos, comparative videos, explanatory videos, speculative videos, shorts, lives, etc.) from 2021&nbsp;
Furthermore, I often provide continuous updates on Polkadot (but not only, I am independent and generalist) through in-depth news on both YouTube and my Telegram channel, also helping many people take their "first steps" in the Dot ecosystem and trying to make it as understandable as possible even for the less experienced.
I believe I was the only one in Italy (or at least the first) to introduce people to Dot crowdloans, their functioning, how to participate, the use of Polkadot JS, Talisman wallet, platforms like Parallel, or even simply through exchanges for the inexperienced.
Additionally, educational videos such as "the importance of leaving at least 1 dot in the wallet," how to stake, or how to participate through nomination pools.
I have explained various projects from the ICO phase (like Centrifuge) to explaining projects like Acala, Astar Network, Manta, and Moonbeam.
Simple comparisons of the functioning of the Polkadot blockchain compared to Cardano, or the difference between Kusama and Polkadot, etc&hellip;
Returning to my request, it is truly very modest for all the study and work done to make Polkadot known, but I did it for free! However, given this opportunity, which I find very valid for those who have contributed to the growth of Polkadot within their means or competencies, I believe it is correct to make this small request!
Here are some of the contents I have created over time on my channel, while it often happens to talk about Polkadot even when I participate on other YouTubers' channels as a guest.

&nbsp;
I believe I have contributed, (not like Luca Poggi that him works night and day for Polkadot for Italian Community), but in my possibility, to the growth and awareness of the Polkadot community in Italy. I believe that 50% of my followers have investments in Dot or in some project related to it and many of them use Dapps on it.

Thank You Guys
