Hey @satojandro thanks for your feedback, will go step by step with this. About MetaPool, here are the videos that were made: By Crypto Chris: [![]( " - YouTube") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tfDcDbZ5v0c) By Lite Lidger [![](https://img.youtube.com/vi/EnnnjnpVJV8/maxresdefault.jpg "Meta Pool Liquid Staking Tutorial (NEAR)") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EnnnjnpVJV8) By Crypto News [![](https://img.youtube.com/vi/_9WUjr-C_CU/maxresdefault.jpg "Meta Pool - What is Meta Pool - How it Works - Meta Pool Review") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_9WUjr-C_CU) @claudioac Can you give a feedback on these? For Fusotao only Hidden Gem Team video was live, since Kore Crypto Planet and Shirato Group video that was managed by Martin didn’t went live. [![]( " - YouTube") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iAUukIsczS4) @HaiVu can you drop a comment about their video. > [@satojandro](#): > > I do listen and take seriously comments from community members that point out questionable behaviour from some of these Yuutubers Same thing, for community it’s done, so for me also easier to understand what changes should be made. > [@satojandro](#): > > I am worried of a vicious loop where YouTubers may be faking numbers to charge more (or at all), where Stars Guild is incentivised to get as many YouTubers as possible due to agent fees, and where there may be an expectation that as it is community funding (‘free money’) then everyone gets paid and no one asks questions. On market as i saw 95% youtubers do use bots and fake comments, to sort them out we use Social Blade ( [https://socialblade.com](https://socialblade.com) ) traks suspicious info and from the begining we see to who partnership with or not. Just makes me sad when they increase views with bots. Plenty of agencies contacted us that partnership with youtubers, when taking a look what they offer, all of their youtubers have raised views with proxies. Once even got depressed and thought that whole crypto influencers market is fake. > [@satojandro](#): > > Would be curious to know what role do these shillers for pay play on current market conditions? Seems like most lost their legitimacy and engagement overall for that content is down With those that we worked still live and create content if talking about youtubers. Maybe with Martins youtubers wasn’t the best practice. For shilling purposes we had in plan to use twitter ones (see our promo pack: [Stars Guild Promo Pack - Google Sheets](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1haOvE1QTXtqRthxOIJ9qK32LjQI9HT5I2A4y2qBmjTg/edit#gid=0) ) idea was to ask project authors to create contets using [Gleam.io](http://Gleam.io) a givaway for certain tasks (subscriptions and likes), that’s a cool option for fresh projects to grow their audiance, even tho that less then 5% might become fans or clients. If by youtube shillers you ment same video creators that use bots - try to make a search for certain project review, even big G brings to the top most viewed ones (including bot view gained), so for some those might be personal referal links, for others as mentioned they contact agencies and share a fee from a cut if they bring them clients. As i believe, such thing will remain on market, specaily for those crypto projects that get impressed by views and huge subscriber amounts. > [@satojandro](#): > > How could we create a strategy where we encourage organic content - engage members from within our community that have actual in depth knowledge about projects; As an idea before we had an ambassadors program, tho it didn’t seem to find much response (about 15 filled forms we had) when posted on few crypto forums outside NEAR. With two youtubers we even started partnership. > [@NEAR Stars Guild star Ambassador Program for YouTubers](http://gov.near.org/t/near-stars-guild-ambassador-program-for-youtubers/10393): > > NEAR Stars Guild Youtuber ambassador program. Main target. Allow video influencers to reach out NEAR protocol by creating videos for products built on NEAR, reviews or event promotion. Stars Guild will give insights, topics and help with scenarios and administrate the whole workflow. Description. NEAR Protocol is one of the TOP rated blockchains, and is well known for it’s products of developers and friendly community. To advertise NEAR products, news and event… Plan was to post it on [dropsearn.com](http://dropsearn.com) by begining of this year, had chat with them, they said that for now having too much ambassador programs, so we thought that a small donation for sponsored ads could move conversation faster and wrote that idea when asked bigger budget writing down guild plans with milestones. At same time guild grants programme got on hold and now reduced, tho, someone had to manage whole programme. After saw that DEIP launched their own ambassador programme [DEIP Global Ambassador Program - DropsEarn](https://dropsearn.com/events/deip-global-ambassador-program/) Had good comunication remained with Svyat after we helped them with few videos and asked how it goes with programme. He gave me Julias contacts (managed whole process), so they had about 500 filled forms with videos, some forms were 10 times filled by same user, some videos were totaly same, even same comenters and made just to get the bounty. Overal quality of videos was poor, made by amatures, ofcourse good videos also came, but the reviews were launched on YT and are live, good ones and bad ones. I just caught her up, asked for general review how programe went. From my side if quality is needed, then it’s still about working with influencers who already got skills and audiance to share. > [@satojandro](#): > > Following on previous point; how can we amplify our organic community members content so they can grow their audience. Ecosystem is highly supportive and quality content gets views/subscribers Always ask to spread a word that Dapp is built on NEAR. The best thing we implemented by past month was to ask youtubers to show in their videos call to action to join communities, like russian speaking ones send to Play to Earn Games on NEAR, so for national guilds we always tried to put links to their communities under video. Tho, can ask them to share screens of TG groups or Discord with a call to join. Not only social links to Dapp. To squeeze the most of youtubers that they can give. > [@satojandro](#): > > Just to be clear, I am to interested in picking pennies and reducing your management or agent fees. Just want to ensure that the YouTubers are throughly vetted and that we start thinking of growing our organic ecosystem so funding can be sustainable. Ok, will reduce agent fees and, few more videos and change some youtubers as @boy.ivan recomended. --- _[View the full topic](https://gov.near.org/t/approved-near-stars-guild-july-4-projects-pack-with-18-videos/23807)._
