Good Morning!

Based on our review by matching the proposal and report for February, here are the results:

Update : March, 7th '24 11:26 AM UTC+7

Wallet Creation & Transaction

The number of wallets you have noted is great, along with the number of transactions. However, there is an important note:

1. The wallets are predominantly used by users from countries other than Korea, such as India, Indonesia, Vietnam, Africa etc.
2. In the future, it is necessary to limit the wallets prioritised for users from Korea, although it may takes more effort to control

Twitter
I’d like to see a more detailed version, perhaps you could please include something like the following example:

Videos
The provided video is predominantly focused on HOT topics only. Further improvisation is needed to diversify the content in the future. The comments also come from others Korean region.

Events & Education
In my opinion, education to local communities is about providing education about NEAR to the local communities. Next time, we should go to targetted community and promote about NEAR to onboard more user to NEAR Korea group.

Regarding the swag delivery, is there any evidence to show if it has been done?

Partnership
We can count the partnership with University, unfortunately we cannot find authentic evidence of the type of partnership intended for:

1. SKRRYPPTO l Sungkyunkwan University
2. Blue Node l Inha University

The events are only in the form of wallet creation, follow, RT, etc., while the majority of participants are not affiliated with the universities.

We need links from the partners stating that they are cooperating with NEAR Korea DAO, not just from one side. At least on their social media account like this:
Blue Node : https://twitter.com/web3BlueNode

Or documentation of visiting / MoU document.

All in all, the results provided are highly significant for several aspects. However, we need to emphasize the primary objectives behind the existence of each regional community, as this could serve as a crucial note for future improvements.

I’ll wait for comments from the other council members, please confirm if there are any inaccuracies in my statement.

Cheers

Hi, Thank you for your feed back! @derymars

Wallet Creation & Transaction

In the spirit of web3 culture, we cannot control who participates in our events, but we are keen to encourage more Korean users to join, especially considering our recent collaborations with universities in Korea.

Twitter

Below is the detailed version:

Videos

The popularity of Hot Coin in Korea, coupled with Korea’s significant global purchasing power, has generated immense interest among Korean KOLs and audiences. This attention has led to widespread viral engagement within the Korean community, stemming from our focused efforts. Our strategy centers on onboarding users to Hot Coin and attracting more individuals to join this burgeoning platform. By educating users on the effective use of a Hot Wallet, our goal is to onboard as many participants as possible through various engaging activities.

In the coming month, we plan to diversify our topics to maintain and expand this momentum.

Events & Education

We are committed to conducting more educational quizzes about the NEAR ecosystem to enhance users’ understanding. Recognizing the significant interest in AI within Korea, we have successfully highlighted NEAR’s leadership in the AI space to our Korean audience through our AI narrative.

Below are the swags we have delivered:

Partnerships

We have established partnerships with the following institutions:

1. SKRRYPPTO at Sungkyunkwan University
2. Blue Node at Inha University

Initially, They shared information with thier private groups of university students and they have posted on their X account.

SKRRYPPTO at Sungkyunkwan University: (15) SKKRYPTO (@skkrypto) / X (twitter.com)

Blue Node at Inha University: (15) BlueNode | 블루노드 (@web3BlueNode) / X (twitter.com)

Thank you for your feedback. We are excited to witness NEAR’s rapid growth!

Hello,

Thanks for the great job, as discussed on call we need remove 15% of your total budget due to lack of dev training session details in the report. We really appreciate your efforts for the ecosystem.

You can proceed to the next step for the second 35% disbursement of funds, through Astra+ here https://near.org/astraplusplus.ndctools.near/widget/home?page=dao&daoId=nearglobedao.sputnik-dao.near

Good Luck for March
