Firstly, I would like to express my gratitude to Polkaworld for their dedication to staying up-to-date with Polkadot and Kusama developments and encouraging me to apply for treasury funds. I also want to thank Mrb for providing valuable suggestions. Before submitting a complete proposal, I look forward to engaging in constructive dialogue with everyone to explore the feasibility and potential of my project. Your valuable insights will greatly contribute to the refinement and success of this endeavor. Although I am not a software engineer, I am an avid fan of Polkadot and have been consistently following related developments. Through discussions, I have become aware of Polkadot's technological advantages in the blockchain field. My research project can bring new perspectives and value to the community while paving the way for Kusama's broader application through dialogue with the academic and financial sectors. The purpose of this proposal is to increase the promotion of Polkadot and Kusama in China, laying the groundwork for the next wave of growth.
Project Overview: This project aims to boost the presence of Polkadot (DOT) and Kusama (KSM) in China by utilizing the Zhihu platform. Zhihu, a popular Chinese Q&A platform, boasts a vast user base, high-quality content, and fosters a robust knowledge-sharing environment. The project will engage and draw in the target audience through captivating posts, top-notch research reports, online events, and collaborations with student associations for offline activities. A selection of valuable articles and resources centering on Kusama (KSM) will be utilized for the high-quality research reports, delving into the project's various aspects. By examining these materials, the project aims to attain a profound understanding of KSM's technology, use cases, market potential, and impact on the blockchain ecosystem. A prime example of this is the in-depth study, "A Comprehensive Analysis of Treasury Spending in the Kusama Network: Evaluating Governance, Allocation Efficiency, and Impact on the Ecosystem", found here. This highlights the project's dedication to producing high-quality research and content.
Before submitting a comprehensive proposal, I am eager to engage with everyone here in a constructive dialogue to explore the feasibility and potential of my project. Your valuable insights and opinions will be greatly appreciated and will undoubtedly contribute to the refinement and success of this endeavor.
