[EVENT] UPGRADE -> ASIA Staking Party for NEAR (virtual) 4th March 2PM UTC

GM,

There is no denial that South East Asia (SEA) has a huge potential for crypto mainstream adoption.

  • 663 million population !!!
  • Youngest population in the world after Africa.
  • Philippines, Thailand, Indonesia, Malaysia , and Singapore are among the Top 15 countries in terms of crypto holders on age bracket 16 to 64.

At Near Malaysia Guild, we want to kickstart our Guild journey by organizing a Staking Party for South East Asia in partnership with #MetaPool.

I would like to make a call to arms to our fellow friends at NEAR Indonesia, Philippines, and Vietnam Guild to start organizing the event and flow down to our community: @derymars @orvardjam @rileytran

Separately, if you are a Youtuber, influencer, etc in South East Asia, please do contact us to help us communicate on the event.

Our one and only @asyraf.near, the brain behind BicaraKrypto (https://www.youtube.com/c/BICARAKRYPTO) will be spearheading communication of the event in Bahasa language. The event itself will be in English.
