Zcash Turkey Promotion Campaign

Hello Everyone, I’m Batuhan

I would like to briefly introduce myself.

My name is Batuhan, and I live in Turkey. I have been active in the crypto sector for over 4-5 years, working in alignment with Turkey’s strategic position in the market. I’ve been familiar with the Z Cash project for quite some time. I would like to provide brief information and visuals about the projects I have previously worked on.

Epic Cash
Firo
Charity Token
Peercoin (Video support)

I have actively worked on these projects. Currently, I serve as the Community Manager of Firo in Turkey (although we have decided to make this role more flexible). In this regard, I would like to receive some feedback on how I can contribute to Zcash.

Turkey has recently entered a turbulent period due to inflation. However, over the past 5 years, the number of crypto users has significantly increased. In the 2023 surveys, more than 40% of the country’s population is reported to be investing in crypto. In line with this, many crypto events are already taking place in Turkey. I want to address this issue and work on helping people protect their money against inflation while prioritizing privacy and security.

Planned Activities:

Social Media:
Social media is the most important communication tool today. The goal is to reach audiences by regularly sharing images and videos on Zcash’s social media accounts (X, Instagram, TikTok) on a daily basis. These posts will consist of educational and informative content to encourage new people to join us. I also aim to make the community more active by hosting live chats on X on specific days.

YouTube:
I am considering starting a weekly video series for YouTube. This series will start from the basics, so even people with no prior knowledge will be able to understand the vision and mission of the Zcash project after watching the videos. The plan is to release 1 new video each week (around 5 minutes in length) and share 2 short videos weekly to build an audience.

Telegram:
By creating a Telegram group, I aim to answer the questions of potential Turkish users and investors, organize regular events to keep the group active, and ensure that anyone seeking information about the project receives quick responses.

In addition to these, I aim to represent the project in real life by organizing various events, such as university conferences, tea meetings, and other activities.

Visuals of social activities I have done in the past ;

During IstanbulBlockChain week in Turkey, I was there to make new connections.

I organized an environmental event for +40 people where all participants created their wallet address and joined the community. I wanted to emphasize that the projects are intertwined with the community in social activities as well as in the Development and Privacy aspects.

The official teams of the municipality where I live also took part in the event. My wife helped me in this process :smiley:

I made seat covers for public transportation, reached +1000 people daily and it took months. During the first 3 months over +70 people joined the community and created a wallet address.

In addition to these events, I have also created many youtube videos to help people get information about the projects.

In this context, I aim for the Zcash project to have a stronger presence in Turkey and to gain popularity by creating an audience (as in Spain).
In line with my responsibilities, I believe that I can play a leading role in any activity related to Zcash in Turkey.

Of course, I realize that the main focus is to move forward as a Volunteer, but I still need to be involved in the system by doing my job professionally. It doesn’t change the fact that I have a wife and a little baby to take care of. Still, if a volunteer can support me for the first month, I will have the opportunity to prove myself.

I would also like to state that I will contribute to the society by acting as a volunteer in all other matters during my working period. You can support me with your positive or negative feedback.

Sincerely regards

Thank you :slight_smile:
There are other activities I do. My goal is to interact with people at low cost and make them understand the logic of the project. It is really important to create a local audience by making one-to-one explanations with people :slight_smile:


A playstation tournament. Simple and effective, if you make an effort to build a local audience, you can lay the groundwork for building a nationwide audience over time.


Turkey is a football country. I gave vests with details about the Project to an astroturf field and also set up a stand there to promote the Project.

I love being on the field and communicating with people. I believe I can make a great progress in Turkey if given the opportunity. :slight_smile: I am ready to answer all your questions

Thanks for the feedback. I wanted to work full time but I didn’t get full feedback from the community. I’m here to work and prove myself

But if a community member asks me to do my job, I can do it successfully. I want to prove myself and help Z Cash build an audience in Turkey.
I would also like to inform you that I will publish detailed statistical reports with partial transparency.

I will charge 24 ZCash for 1 month of work :slight_smile:

Out of this allowance
Twitter Subscription
Canva Subscription
2 Z Cash will be distributed to the community

Maybe someone may want to support me by evaluating my past references :slight_smile:

I will definitely take your suggestion into consideration. I just want to make a comprehensive introduction. I have studied your suggestions and prepared a document on what I can do on my own. My goal is to build a community, as I have done for many years in many projects.

Welcome Bathuhan and thank you for your proposal! I have a few questions:

  • Do you have a Twitter account with current / previous work?
  • Which content you would like to talk about ?
  • Have you heard of my the MFZ educational book?
  • We have biweekly calls, would you be able to attend and report your work
  • How can we help you?
  • What tools / resources do you need help with?

Look forward to reading your responses and good luck! :zebra: :shield:

Excellent initiative!

I would like to see more countries with similar initiatives, and that spontaneously drive activities, events and meetups about Zcash. Privacy is important, and people don’t give it much importance.

I have a couple of doubts about the proposal: Do you have a team of people working with you? I ask because content generation as you mention it is a huge job for one person. And how is the distribution of the funds you are requesting? I would like to see more detail on this before deciding my vote.

I would like you to introduce us to your team members, or have them introduce themselves and be active here on Zcash as well.

Thanks!

First of all Hello, Thank you for your questions

I don’t have a Twitter account with my previous work. Nevertheless, I will post links to some of the works and Videos I have done;



https://x.com/TrFiro

I prepared the Turkish posts on Firo’s Twitter account.

I plan to create a Twitter account for myself in the near future

Content For the first month, it will mainly consist of posts that will enable even people who do not know Zcash at all to learn it gradually.
I will provide basic information with 1 video series every week on Youtube.
In addition, I will regularly organize posts on social media accounts every day.
I am working on the topics of the videos. There will be basic videos such as Mining, Wallets, What is Zcash.

MFZ is a great resource and this resource will be a key for me to create content in Turkey and learn more about Zcash.

I will publish my work every 15 days in a statistically transparent way.
Since English is not my native language, my speaking skills are not very good even if I participate in conversations. This may be my biggest shortcoming, but I have tried my best to do my job for a long time and I can promise you that there will be no glitches :slight_smile:
I will ask for some help from the community at the beginning of the work. Resources , Brand kits , Suggestions and ideas.
Because while promoting the Zcash project, I also need to get involved in the community and have the chance to learn more in detail. Referencing previous work and listening to suggestions will be important for me to create a stronger community.

I will be happy to answer any other questions you may have.
Best regards

First of all, thank you for your valuable feedback.
I have not yet submitted an offer to include my team. I wanted to introduce myself and start an initiative to create a community in Turkey.
I have prepared my proposal in a way that 1 person will work on a budget.
I realize that I will have a very intense work tempo, but this is an opportunity to prove myself. There are people experienced in crypto that I can include in my team in the future. When presenting my offer, I was inspired by the Brazilian team’s offer, and if my offer is accepted and the whole community agrees that I am making successful progress (I will constantly share stats and progress), I will add a member to my team in the next period. He will introduce himself here soon.

Funds I request 24 Zcash for the first month
Distribution of these funds;
2 Zcash will be distributed at community events (X event, gift for those who create a wallet address)
Zcash Logo T-shirt, Mug cup printing
Twitter Premium Membership
Canva membership

After all this, an average of 19 Zcash will be the fee I demand for my personal 1-month work. I have not calculated any hours, so this month will be a month where I will strive to PROVE MYSELF.

I hope I have answered your questions transparently. I would be happy if you have any other questions.

Best regards :slight_smile:

What about your team? Who are they? Are you alone “against the world”?

This is an individual offer. Of course I know someone who can help with crypto, he is my wife’s brother and runs the Zano Turkey community flexibly.
As I answered in the forum, I will work alone as much as possible and I will work full time. We will be a team in the future :slightly_smiling_face:
