We've added a couple of new features and adjusted some of the points. Specially for MNO’s - what we changed in short:
- Since we are looking for a long-term involvement, this proposal is now for 6 months instead of three. We are introducing you a big new concept for DASH-HUB after Christmas, but first we decided to start building longterm relationship with DASH community step-by-step. It would be a good benchmark to show that we stick to our obligations.
- Since the winter is coming ( swear I didn’t want to trigger all those GOT fans:) ) we’ll have to travel less. Hence, the total amount of conferences and meet- ups will increase! That’s right, we made a couple arrangement and now we can make more events in capital city - Kiev - without increasing the price!
- I went crazy with video blogs and now I produce a lot more of those, not just two a month. More ideas = more content. More content = more engagement:)
- A salary for Journalist-copywriter-manager is now higher, since total amount of work and material we provide has increased dramatically (Take a look at Ukrainian DASH community thread). I think it’s a fair price since I have to act as a project manager as well.
- We started making weekly meet- ups in restaurants to introduce people to DASH’s payment system in POS terminals. Since the development is on it’s final stage, we need to perfect customers’ experience before EVOLUTION. That’s in addition to conferences, of course!

Continued funding: Vlogs, Conferences and News on DASH by sm

We are inviting people to discover new crypto possibilities and our improved payment system. Everyone can come to Pesto restaurant in the very center of our country - Maidan Nezalezhnosti - and have a drink with top cryptocurrency experts of Ukraine. We invited Press and Mass-media to cover this event publicly and country-wide:)
That's suspicious, because it hints of bot views.
Do you know why this is the case?
That's definitely not bots:)
View count is in the same area mostly because we use AdWords to promote our videos and events. That's scheduled in our budget.
The amount of comments and reactions differs greatly from time to time. Most activities happen on the e-mail, when we receive some questions, enquiries related to cryptocurrency and blockchain: people ask us about the topics they want to know more about so we fulfill their interest. Question remains why don't they even say thanks in the comments? Unfortunately I don't know...
As you can tell from our YouTube analytics, our campaign creates a healthy rate of 30+ subscriptions per month based on users' interest. Even with couple unsubscribed users:)
The problem with Russian- speaking audience is that channels with more "earning" philosophy create a lot bigger audience that channels like mine (focused on technology and real-world situations). People like to comment and react to those videos in a way of "You're saying that bitcoin is not going to grow exponentially? *** you! It's going to the moon!!11!!!" etc.
You know:)
All in all, I would be very grateful for your advise on how we can improve the quality of the channel and create a better impact for the DASH!
1. What is your plan if the price of Dash doubles or triples in value? I would like to see a specific plan for added value on your end.
2. What is your plan if the price of Dash goes down 60%? Unlikely I know, but I like to see a plan for all contingencies. I don't want to see you starve to death either.
Thanks! solarguy
Let's get your questions:
1. If price goes up a couple times I can scale my proposal: go for more promotion - gather more people - hire speakers of higher league. Same with vlogs - more promotion- bigger audience - more subscribers - more fame to DASH!
I would really like to gather bigger audience, to partner with some of the famous youtubers in cryptocurrency sphere - but they all ask for money in advance:(
Furthermore, our news resource needs one more copywriter to produce more content. At least a freelance one.
I've also had ideas on inviting Alex_ru to Ukraine to make one big conference for CIS countries... As you see - there are plenty of ways on how to make good to DASH ecosystem:)
2. I definitely won't starve to death since I have two more jobs in "Real world" but thanks for your care:) Again - I will produce content on the same level but the scale to which I will be able to promote that content and the scale of the conferences is going to decrease.
All those points actually prove the pros of scalable models:)
