[PROPOSAL] NEAR Malaysia Social Media funding Apr’23 to Jun’23

INTRO

if you havent yet, please red our 2022 Reports here: Blog - mynear.org

2022 Milestones, in a nutshell:

  • positioned ourselves, thanks to our pluridisciplinar and multi-ethnic team, as one of the leading communities in Malaysia.

  • 70 builders, 1200 Telegram members and 1500 Twitter followers higher than any other L1 blockchain in Malaysia!

    • Cardano : 400 members
    • ETHKL: 760 members
    • Fantom: 80 members
    • Terra: 630 members.
  • focused on education and Web3 entrepreneurship.

  • co-organized or attended a total of 10 physical events with local blockchain entities and local universities.

  • Hosted several AMAs, often scoring above 100-200+ attendees!

2023 ROADMAP AHEAD :

Since MarketingDAO is not funding physical events but we have a very solid footing in Malaysia and it would be a waste not to utilize it due to lack of funds, we propose the following activities (ONLINE ONLY!) for the next 3 months:

  • 12 AMAs (happens biweekly!) with VEAX, LEAP, PlayEmber, JUMP, Fluxus, Neko, Pembrock, NEARStarter, Together, Metayield/Metapool, plus 2 more.
  • Creation of a Crew3.xyz account to boost engagement across socials and intertwine such engagement with NEAR Ecosystem projects.
  • myBuilders (Malaysian builders) virtual meeting #3 for brainstorming & networking.
  • Workshop on NEAR Wallet creation + DeFi in NEAR with APU University and UNITEN university.
  • Co-organization of web3 builders online workshops with WIBA and with APAC Web3 Builders (HQed in Singapore and with good ties to our council)

We hope the non-hybrid proposal helps pass it this time, since now it is not a Events+Online model anymore. NEAR Malaysia achieved great things in 2022 and it is a shame not to capitalize on it, and keep alive the community. @Dacha @so608 @satojandro @cryptocredit @Klint

Hello! Happy to support you. In terms of increasing UAW and transactions in our Ecosystem, it would be great if you add the bot to your Community telegram chat. Thanks!

Hi @gonemultichain thanks for the proposal. In my opinion, we do not yet have confirmation from the NEAR Foundation Community leaders about the MarketingDAO funding regional community activities. This is something that we have been working to get clarity on and have requested an increase in funding and the creation of new guidelines so we can support regional communities while the RegionalDAO is still under consideration for future iterations of the NDC. We hope to have more information soon. I will hold my decision until then.
