Hello @waxnear can you create a telegram group with me @kmotiv? Thanks

[agt]

Big fan of Wax and his consistency of delivery. His spaces are the incubating platform for projects building on NEAR to find their voice.

[Dacha]

On the same page. Happy to support!

[so608]

Hi @waxnear Thanks for the proposal. I’ve reviewed, and I am happy to support this for another month.

I want to note your consistent, quality content on Twitter. Before requesting another month of funding, it would be helpful for us to see an update on growth of channels over time – I can see the stats at the top of your proposal, but it would be helpful to understand how your audience is growing as well. Thanks!

[waxnear]

Thanks for the kind words!

Here are some metrics that could help track the growth.
Since last proposal:

1. +3k organic real twitter followers
2. 160 people in telegram group (from 0)
3. Went from 10-25 to 20-150 listeners concurrently (this varies greatly per space, but there is significant growth)
4. Went from 30-90 total listeners to 50-400, with 100+ on a regular basis
