Hi all,
I just submitted our proposal to launch Zcash.
Title:
Zcash in Brazil: A website and videos teaching all about ZCash
Total Request (USD):
$ 13.200,00
Description of Problem or Opportunity
The general public is not familiar with Zcash, zero-knowledge proofs, the Zcash community, or how Zcash and its technology. In addition to the problem of general lack of awareness about privacy and how it can impact our lives with cryptocurrencies, Brazilians have an even greater need to know this technology because we live in a highly regulated country with little freedom. Finally, although information and discussions about the development of Zcash are at a high level in English-speaking forums, little is said here and little is known.
Background - Summarize the qualifications that you and/or your team bring to the table. Show that you have the skills and expertise necessary for the project that you’re proposing. (Institutional bona fides are not required, but we do want to hear about your track record!)
I am from Brazil and I am an Entrepreneur, business creator since 2013.
Graduated in Mechanical Engineering, my passion has always been business and getting ideas off paper. I created some businesses, invested in others, made mistakes in others. It took me a while to set my eyes on crypto as I was focused on other businesses. When I got to know it, I fell in love and since then, I just see myself working with it and building everything related to it.
In 2018 I created a digital marketing agency to sell courses in Brazil focusing on content marketing. We invested a lot in Facebook and Google ads during this period and we have the knowledge to reach the right customers through these platforms.
I am part of a group that studies various protocols/blockchains. I knew ZCash there and I can find documents and news about the project only in English. There is almost nothing about the protocol in Portuguese and I want to share this with other people. I know the power of education, community and business creation around Web 3.0 and Privacy. And I want to teach that to Brazilians.
Proposed Solution
The purpose of the project is to bring ZCash to Brazil and create a website where we will bring updates, articles, translations of technical and non-technical documents and create a series of videos teaching how to use ZCash STEP BY STEP.
I want to use the knowledge in web 3.0 + marketing and bring the best content so that the 220 million Brazilians can have access. I am going to create a free, simple language videos and content for common users, educating about ZCash ecosystem, Privacy and Web 3.0.
Through free content on YouTube channel and a new Website (zcashbrasil.org), I will educate new people how to start in Web 3.0 with Privacy. This helps the entire blockchain ecosystem, which is just in its infancy.
Through my website and youtube channel I will be able to further expand the impact of the videos, creating a category/playlist for Privacy and Security.
Solution Format: What is the exact form of the final deliverable you’re creating?
Website
Technical Approach - Dive into the how of your project. Describe your approaches, components, workflows, methodology, etc. Bullet points and diagrams are appreciated!
Let’s create the entire site structure with the appropriate categories
Start translating key documents, articles and news
Constantly update with updates that come out on the official website
Structure video scripts
Create videos and post
Also post updates on our main channel to reach even more people – Our channel is focused on Web 3.0 Education
Dependencies: What external entities is your project dependent on? What involvement is required from ZF, ECC, and/or other external organizations? Who would have to incorporate your work in order for it to be usable?
A small risk of delay with the translation of documents and editions, but we don’t see this as a big problem
Execution Risks - What obstacles do you expect? What is most likely to go wrong? Which unknown factors or dependencies could jeopardize success? What are your contingency plans? Will subsequent activities be required to maximize impact?
Our proposal is not coding or technical in nature, so we don’t see major risks.
Unintended Consequences: What are the negative ramifications if your project is successful? Consider usability, stability, privacy, integrity, availability, decentralization, interoperability, maintainability, technical debt, requisite education, etc.
I cannot see anything
Evaluation Plan - What will your project look like if successful? How will we be able to tell? Include quantifiable metrics if possible.
We will have the main information channel about Zcash, privacy and security in cryptocurrencies in Brazil.
The greater the growth of the protocol, the more information will be brought to the site and we will be able to measure the number of monthly visits and interest/searches for the word ZCASH by google.
Through the videos we will be able to know the number of views and of course, likes.
Budget
I set the minimum amount possible to be able to translate documents, articles and news, create videos and follow Zcash updates.
After 6 months of the project, it can be evaluated whether the work was done well and later we can extend it to another 6 months.
