Hello Zcash Community,
We are submitting a new proposal as a continuation and extension of our previously approved educational initiative focused on Russian-speaking audiences.
This new proposal is here: Grant Application - Zcash CIS Educational Media Initiative 2026 (3 month) · Issue #296 · ZcashCommunityGrants/zcashcommunitygrants · GitHub
Zcash Russian-Language Educational Content Initiative (3 Months)
The initiative is designed as a 3-month educational content program with a budget of $3,000 per month, for a total of $9,000.
Why we are continuing this work
Our goal is to continue building accessible Russian-language educational materials about Zcash and financial privacy for broader crypto audiences.
We believe there is still a strong need for:
-
clear explanations of what Zcash is,
-
educational materials about why financial privacy matters,
-
localized Russian-language content for users who are not deeply familiar with privacy-preserving technologies,
-
and durable public materials that remain useful beyond a single campaign cycle.
This proposal is not designed as a promotional campaign. It is designed as a structured educational initiative focused on public-facing content and ecosystem understanding.
What we plan to do over 3 months
Over the course of 3 months, we plan to produce Russian-language educational content across our media ecosystem, including:
-
educational written content,
-
Telegram educational posts,
-
contextual publications related to Zcash and financial privacy,
-
supporting educational references in public-facing content,
-
and one longer-form educational video or podcast if feasible.
The main objective is to improve Russian-language understanding of Zcash and make privacy-related topics more accessible to broader audiences.
Budget
-
Monthly budget: $3,000
-
Total duration: 3 months
-
Total requested budget: $9,000
This budget is structured as a team-cost educational initiative, covering research, editorial planning, writing, production, publishing, coordination, and reporting.

We see this new proposal as a more structured 3-month continuation of that work.
