Hello Zcash Community,
We have submitted our application for a 3-month Russian-language educational outreach campaign for Zcash.

About us
Pro Blockchain Media is a crypto-native media company with 10 years of experience covering blockchain, digital assets, and Web3 for Russian-speaking audiences. Over the years, we have built a large and engaged audience across Telegram, YouTube, livestreams, and other social channels.
We have worked with many major industry players, including Binance, Dash, Bybit, and other leading projects. We have also hosted top-tier guests and speakers in our podcast and interview formats, including CZ Binance, Roger Ver, as well as many well-known influencers and representatives of leading blockchain ecosystems.
What we are proposing
We are requesting $9,000 for a 3-month campaign aimed at increasing awareness of Zcash, improving understanding of financial privacy, and expanding Zcash ecosystem visibility across Russian-speaking crypto markets.
The proposed campaign includes:
-
3 educational Telegram posts per month
-
2 livestream mentions per month
-
ongoing Zcash logo placement during the campaign period
-
1 bonus podcast/interview with a Zcash ecosystem representative on our main channel
The content will focus on:
-
what Zcash is and why it matters
-
why financial privacy is important
-
ecosystem updates and relevant developments
-
educational explanations for users who are not yet familiar with privacy-focused technologies
Budget
The total requested budget is $9,000 for 3 months, structured as $3,000 per month.
This proposal is intentionally priced as a cost-covering educational outreach initiative, not as a standard commercial media package. Based on our regular pricing, the market value of the included media integrations is significantly higher than the requested amount. In other words, this proposal is designed to support ecosystem education and visibility rather than generate normal commercial profit.
Goal
Our goal is to create consistent Russian-language educational exposure for Zcash over a full 3-month period and to help more users understand the role of privacy-preserving digital money in the broader crypto ecosystem.
We would appreciate your feedback and questions.
Best regards,
Pro Blockchain Media
