Dear Polkadot community,


I am DrCao, most of you may see me around different parachain projects helping new users and some of you may know me as I have one Youtube channel focusing on Polkadot education: https://www.youtube.com/@Web3educationandinvestment . I am also the **most active user in Polkadot** verified by Mythos airdrop (https://twitter.com/cao_lab/status/1781750280117510518 ), and developed the discord and telegram bot for AIWeb3 and few parachain projects. I am here to secure continued funding for the AIWeb3 Chinese community (爱Web3 中文社区) over the next six months. 


The AIWeb3 community is **founded by me in early 2023**, it got **one Kusama treasury support for 6 months, and one Polkadot treasury support for 6 months**, and this is going to be the third time we tried to get funding support. AI or "爱" in AIWeb3 means "love", from the beginning, we want to share our passion and love of Web3. The AIWeb3 provided the education and helped users to better understand Polkadot by **supporting over 20 content creators **(some of them are investors who are interested in Polkadot at the beginning but later on learning how to make content, and some of them from other eco, some of them stays in AIWeb3 from beginning and still producing Polkadot contents),** the AIWeb3 established a vibrant and supportive Chinese community** that has not only resolved many practical issues for users but also expanded general knowledge about Polkadot, **the AIWeb3 organized Twitter Spaces AMA**, inviting project representatives from the Polkadot ecosystem to showcase their products and key opinion leaders to engage in discussions, broadening awareness of the ecosystem, **the AIWeb3 also had some development activity**, such as our first version of website is live (https://y.aiweb3.org), and our Discord and Telegram bot had the points system and dragon card games to support community building. 

**Some preliminary results:**

(1) Growth of our social media in the previous 6 months:

AIWeb3 Chinese Unit(爱Web3 中文社区) operation June. 2024 - Dec. 2024

After careful consideration and discussions with various peers in the wider Polkadot community, AIWeb3 has decided to resubmit its opengov proposal following a recent miss: <a href="https://kusama.polkassembly.io/referenda/261.">https://kusama.polkassembly.io/referenda/261.</a>
We believe that there is value in fostering the growth of Chinese content creators to continue enhancing awareness, as well as growing the Polkadot Chinese community.
Although we previously missed out we garnered significant support with 283 voters in favour versus 82 voters against, thus, we shall now be taking our proposal to Polkadot opengov instead.
Founded in February 2023 and supported by the Kusama treasury for an intitial 6 month period, AIWeb3 can be considered a play on words Artificial Intelligence (AI) with the decentralized web. While we anticipate that the future of web3 will harmonize the principles of "the law of code," AI, and decentralization, our name holds a more fitting significance. In Chinese, "AI" symbolized by "爱" translates to the word love, giving rise to "Love Web3". The name may have bought about some misunderstanding about what AIWeb3 is all about, furthermore, given we came from the WagMedia intiative then naturally most people just associate us with content production.
AIWeb3 covers Chinese educational content creation,community-building, AMA events in Chinese, provides native language asistance to ecosystem builders, and more.
For instance, we hosted a spaces AMA in August that had over 500 people tune in live, which isn&rsquo;t bad considering how difficult it is to attract live audiences during the bear. Here is the recording, which has gone on to successfully attract decent listening figures: <a href="https://twitter.com/aiweb3dao/status/1692881530472055084">https://twitter.com/aiweb3dao/status/1692881530472055084</a>
You will often find us being involved on the Chinese discord channels for many of the ecosystem projects, where we will offer assistance as well as educate newbies by providing them the Chinese content that has been created.
From a community perspective, we currently have 10 active content creators, we also have our own dedicated discord with custom bots to make it easier for our growing Chinese language community of over 690 members. This isn't just about numbers, we want to establish an environment that grows genuine connections between users, creators, and our ecosystem builders.
We have educated our community on Polkadot projects not commonly known by Chinese audiences. For instance, not many have heard of Ajuna Network and would have missed out on all the fun with season 2 Awesome Ajuna Avatars. Recently, we have been tasked by Hashed Network to help them with hiring Chinese ambassadors to support their growth.
Whilst the Kusama funding was to cover a 6 month period, we have managed funds judiciously, in addition, we secured additional funds from parachains and ecosystem projects.
We're now working on the possibility of a comprehensive Polkadot Academy in Chinese, reflecting our commitment to education. We have reached out to Parity, and whilst this is still in the early stages, we have received materials and resources that we can use for a more structured pathway.
AIWeb3 is a passionate group of enthusiasts who have a love for web3 and Polkadot. Our team includes:
DrCAO, an ambassador for various parachains, a member of ChaosDAO, one of the pioneering WagMedia language content directors, a prolific educational content creator who supports the ecosystem in many ways (you can verify his wallet address: 5CkWjh9tdPkJCFVmbSknjDk8MVuUinhu6fCnbu6DVxggLpbv and twitter: <a href="https://twitter.com/cao_lab">https://twitter.com/cao_lab</a> ).
Neo, our tech expert with an extensive history of over 10,000 xcm transactions.
Giki, who has produced numerous quality videos, manages our community wechat video channels, and serves as our AMA event host.
Xiucai, shall oversee the ambassador program and Polkadot Academy initiative, he also boasts a solid following on YouTube (<a href="https://www.youtube.com/@xiucai-finance">https://www.youtube.com/@xiucai-finance</a>). There are many others that help shape our community, all united by the love of our ecosystem and unwavering belief in holding DOT/KSM as well as various ecosystem tokens.
Please support us, your DOT vote matters, your feedback is welcomed, and we hope you join us in growing the Polkadot community.
Full proposal can be found here: <a href="https://docs.google.com/document/d/1slcn2X8YYFICwJYLzpHPUSuqTB_Va_MfuWC59ya-IoY/edit?usp=sharing">https://docs.google.com/document/d/1slcn2X8YYFICwJYLzpHPUSuqTB_Va_MfuWC59ya-IoY/edit?usp=sharing</a>
经过与波卡社区中的同行讨论以及慎重的考虑，AIWeb3决定重新提交我们的提案，这是之前的提案：<a href="https://kusama.polkassembly.io/referenda/261。">https://kusama.polkassembly.io/referenda/261。</a>
我们认为培养中文内容创作者对于继续增强以及增长Polkadot中国社区是有价值的。
尽管我们之前提案被否决，但我们获得了相当大的支持，有283名选民支持，与此相对的是82名选民反对，因此，我们现在将提议提交给波卡的opengov。
AIWeb3成立于2023年2月，并得到了Kusama基金会的初次为期6个月的支持。AIWeb3可以被视为&ldquo;人工智能&rdquo;(AI)与去中心化网络的双关语。我们预期web3的未来将和谐地融合 AI和去中心化的原则，但我们的名字具有更为贴切的意义。在中文中，"AI"（爱）的意思是&ldquo;爱&rdquo;，产生了&ldquo;Love Web3&rdquo;这一名字。这个名字可能已经产生了一些误解，再加上我们来自WagMedia，因此大多数人自然地将AI与内容制作联系了起来。
AIWeb3涵盖了中文教育内容的创建、社区建设、中文AMA活动，为生态系统建设者提供本地语言的帮助等。
例如，我们在8月份主持了一个AMA活动，吸引了超过500人实时收听，考虑到在熊市期间吸引实时观众的难度，我们对这个数字还是很满意的。这里是相关的录音，已经成功地吸引了相当多的人收听：<a href="https://twitter.com/aiweb3dao/status/1692881530472055084">https://twitter.com/aiweb3dao/status/1692881530472055084</a>
您经常可以在很多平行链的中文discord频道中发现我们的身影，我们会提供帮助，并提供创建的中文教程来帮助新手。
从社区的角度看，我们目前有10位活跃的内容创作者，我们还有自己的discord频道，有定制的机器人来方便服务我们不断增长的中文社区，社区已经有超过690名成员。数字并不能代表全部，但我们希望建立一个能够促进用户、创作者和我们的生态系统建设者之间真实联系的良好环境。
我们已经在我们的社区提供了很多关于波卡项目的知识，其中的一些项目在中国受众中并不常见。例如，很少人听说过Ajuna，如果没有我们，他们可能就错过了与第二季Awesome Ajuna Avatars相关的所有乐趣，同时我们也正在为hashed network招聘中文大使。
尽管Kusama的资金是为了覆盖6个月的周期，但我们一直在谨慎地管理了资金，此外，我们还从平行链和生态系统项目中获得了额外的资金。
我们现在正在考虑用中文创建一个波卡学院，这反映了我们对教育的承诺。我们已经联系了Parity，尽管这还处于初级阶段，但我们已经从Parity那里获得了可以用于结构化的材料和资源。
AIWeb3是一群对web3和Polkadot充满热情的爱好者。我们的团队包括： DrCAO，他是多个平行链的大使，ChaosDAO的成员，WagMedia的中文社区负责人，他是一个多产的教育内容创作者，从多个方面支持Dotsama生态系统（您可以验证他的钱包地址：5CkWjh9tdPkJCFVmbSknjDk8MVuUinhu6fCnbu6DVxggLpbv 和 twitter: <a href="https://twitter.com/cao_lab）。">https://twitter.com/cao_lab）。</a> Neo，我们的技术专家，有超过10,000次的xcm交易记录。 Giki，他制作了大量的高质量视频，管理我们的社区微信视频频道，并担任我们的AMA活动主持人。 Xiucai，将负责大使项目和Polkadot Academy倡议，他在YouTube上也有很大的关注度。 还有许多其他人帮助塑造我们的社区，所有人都被我们的生态系统的热爱和对持有DOT/KSM以及各种生态系统代币的坚定信念团结在了一起。
请支持我们，您的DOT投票很重要，我们欢迎您的反馈，希望您加入我们，共同发展Polkadot中文社区。 大家可以查看中文版的提案： <a href="https://docs.google.com/document/d/15T-gkRUxYxEG4aOicoMGg_11T3pJluB94KPcHppJFvE/edit?usp=sharing">https://docs.google.com/document/d/15T-gkRUxYxEG4aOicoMGg_11T3pJluB94KPcHppJFvE/edit?usp=sharing</a>

AIWeb3 Chinese Unit proposal (爱Web3 中文社区提案) - September, 2023 - March, 2024

Pease VOTE NAY, parameter is wrong

Hello everyone, this is Web3 Education and Investment Channel, I am DrCAO, DrCAO is the community manager of the Polkadot parachain project Parallel Finance, leads a Chinese community in WagMedia (Now AIWeb3 community), member of the WagMedia committee, head of the Centrifuge Chinese community, and ambassador for several Polkadot parachain projects, such as Astar Network, Bifrost, InvArch, etc., as well as a member of Chaos DAO. He is responsible for the development of the Discord bot in the Web3 education and investment discord channel (https://discord.gg/FDfAet97). Since the beginning of 2022, I have decided to make videos to share my personal experience and the Web3 Education and Investment Channel(Polkadot parachain learning and investment in web 3 and NFT) only focused on Polkadot & Kusama ecosystem, and within 2 years, I have been continuously generating 500 videos! Most of my videos are about educational and technical tutorial, eco update about Polkadot and Kusama ecosystem.

My channel focuses on Web3 education like tutorials and sharing news and also building community to help users with any difficulty of using the Polkadot product. I would like to play an important role in Web3 and be a trustworthy person in Polkadot, I want to be a helper for making those educational tutorials, that will help new users and existing users. I am also making those videos based on my own experience, I always tried the product first before I shared it with the audience, and I always participated in the crowdloan first before I shared it with others, no financial advice, but want to build a good environment for learning about projects and products.

**Updates:**
After careful consideration and discussions with others, I have decided to withdraw the proposal. My primary commitment remains with AIWeb3, as highlighted in the comments, which has already received funding. AIWeb3 is dedicated to raising awareness about Polkadot, particularly by building a Chinese language community.

1. I didn't expect that ppl mixed this proposal with the AIWeb3 proposal, they are two different proposals, one for the whole AIWeb3 community (ref 66 and the ref 160 as continous of the ref 66, I am founder of the AIWeb3 but it supported more than 17 content creators and staff for the Chinese community, linktree here: https://linktr.ee/aiweb3), and this proposal initially is supposed to support my own English channel and community, which would also be helpful for the mission of AIWeb3, but totally different work. 
2. I would like to withdraw this proposal, to avoid any confusion from the community, and I will focus on AIWeb3 community. 

The mission of the AIWeb3 Chinese community is to nurture the community, enabling Chinese content creators to focus on content creation in DotSama. We aim to bridge different parachain projects and ensure the community receives the latest information about DotSama. This environment allows Chinese content creators to concentrate on research, producing high-quality content, which includes dubbing, translations, and original pieces centered around DotSama. Moreover, we are allocating more resources to support budding content creators, helping them to cultivate their audience and brand.

We have a lot of updates recently from the AIWeb3 community (You should check on Twitter: https://twitter.com/aiweb3dao):

1. We have published our first video for the Polkadot blockchain Academy series: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qp9G_bAo3P4

2. We have sent out an extra 5K reward to the content creators and AIWeb3 followers for the video and article competition, partially supported by Astar network, Please join the ongoing events with Bifrost and Subwallet : https://twitter.com/aiweb3dao/status/1724411211503247837

3. Interview the founder of Abelian community, will they join Polkadot later on? https://twitter.com/aiweb3dao/status/1721904941688885432

4. Twitter space AMA with Subwallet, Tangem and Scalebit, and talk about wallet, security in Web3: https://twitter.com/aiweb3dao/status/1722472196009070669 

5. Implemented the small "trick_or_treat" game on Discord, first round 66 users participated in 2 days, and second round still going on, with support from Talisman, InvArch, Darwinia, and Bifrost, it is simple, just type:  !trick_or_treat on the AIWeb3 discord: https://discord.gg/pQtZG8UQfk
Right now, 92 participants, and played the game 4360 times, we hope to get 100 participants soon! 

I'm pleased to report that this mission is gaining strong momentum, evidenced by the significant participation in Chinese events/AMAs (see above), and our discord is also growing actively to be more than 1600 now. 
The initial goal of this proposal was to concentrate solely on English content creation. For those who aren’t aware, my content with the support of WagMedia eventually evolved into the AIWeb3 initiative. It brought together like-minded Chinese content creators dedicated to promoting awareness of the Polkadot ecosystem. While some of my English content is beneficial to native English speakers, such as the tutorial (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AQV9bl5s1v8) that proved valuable for contributors to crowdloans via Parallel Finance, it also indirectly facilitates onboarding for Chinese language natives, as I have on occasions provided transcripts in Chinese. I hope that my content inspires more Chinese language natives to actively engage in the community. 
However, to avoid any misunderstanding regarding funding allocation between the AIWeb3 initiative and my English content channel, I want to clarify that I will continue to produce content that educates and inspires. I will actively seek fair rewards by contributing to initiatives like WagMedia, it's important to note that this will be lower priority.
