Removing curators from Spanish bounty
This bounty has always been very criticized as ineffective and self-serving. I see no apparent reason why there should be a specific Spanish bounty, then we should also have a Chinese bounty, Indian Bounty, French bounty, etc. Most of the activities covered by this bounty are already covered by other bounties like events bounty, marketing bounty, etc with much better management and oversight. I think it's time to clean up this bounty because of its ineffectiveness and controversy in the ecosystem. We could also consider replacing the curators with more effective ones (I'm not saying that all of them are ineffective, I'm sure that some of them in the current bounty are very effective but they may be slowed down by ineffective ones, similar to old events bounty). I'm happy to have a conversation with the current curators to understand if this bounty can be salvaged or it's better to terminate it since anyway all the actions it is undertaking already exist under more generic bounties Instead of killing the bounty directly I am proposing to remove the curators so this is like a prelude to either replacing the curators or terminating the bounty in a second referendum

Proposal Failed
good..if there is spanish, there should be all language
This proposal is about remove curators from Spanish Bounty.
Contrary to what is stated in the proposal, we as a curator team firmly believe that the existence of regional bounties serves the community well, and we welcome the existence of other bounties in different regions and languages to amplify the ecosystem message in the different communities and regions.
Furthermore, we do not believe that the bounty overlaps with the activities of other bounties, but rather, contrary to what is proposed, it complements them.
The bounty has not been ineffective and has allowed the visibility of creators in the Spanish-speaking ecosystem.
And in fact, this bounty V2 is the second that exists in Spanish, since the Bounty V1 was a proposal in Kusama and finish during the year 2023.
Here is The Spanish Bounty V1 (2023) proposal: https://kusama.polkassembly.io/motion/568 and its report here: https://spanishbounty.com/
The bounty v2 was approved with a renewed and expanded curator team in Polkadot: https://polkadot.polkassembly.io/referenda/532
Should be taken into account that the bounty is less than two months old, with these results to date: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1dK_okc9XRhK_IyyJDzrm-13ru6APeZ9wxT6TVBYfx8w/edit?gid=2035168095#gid=2035168095
Also, all curations are public and can be viewed here:

And child bounty payments can be viewed here:

In addition, the Spanish bounty V2 has a Discord channel open to the entire community where the community can find the rules, content, criteria and all other data of interest including the threads with each contribution: https://discord.gg/A3aMjPPB and there is a X account: https://x.com/Bountyenespanol
