Welcome one and all!
To help grow awareness and encourage the creation of educational materials for the Blockchain Operation System (BOS), we are launching an educational content creation campaign - with a prize pool worth $1,000!
Here are some ideas of the kind of educational content you could produce:
- Infographics and diagrams explaining aspects and features of the BOS.
- A brief history of NEAR from 2017 to the announcement of the BOS, and what its potential future might look like.
- How to get started on https://near.org/.
- An educational video focusing on the BOS’s features.
- Youtube or TikTok shorts introducing and explaining the BOS to the world.
- Feedback/feature request video: show what’s good & what would you like to see to be improved.
Brand toolkit is available here, to help make your content look on point!
Judges and Criteria
The content will be judged by members of the NEAR Foundation.
- Pass/fail stage, to determine whether the produced content reasonably fits the topic and reaches a baseline level of quality.
