Welcome!

Cross post from Dash forum


I would like to summarize important points of past proposal.
I had a long and sucessfull speech at Bitcoin meetup (regular event) in Paralelní Polis with higher than average attendance.

Video
The team had grown from me to 2 ppl that are based in Prague.
Another Big sucess is sponzorship of HCPP conference
I do not have a speech unforunately, but I am working toward greater recognition (I will post info below).
On the other hand, we are going to open discussions about dash on HCPP and possibly find new partners.
Truth is that Amanda will be there on Skype, so other people form Dash got
lower priority. Which is absolutely great, Amanda is doing great job
Other points
Business developement - I do have very good knowledge about local environment. I did started
communication with potential partners for Dash (e.g. catalogue of
cryptocurreency accepting merchants with online and smartphone
integration with google maps and so on; local ATM company and so on)
Translations: Many translations of Dash Detailed are already finished, What is Dash
is completed, great amount of articles about dash are available at
dashpay.cz,
I still wonder where are the materials that GreyHost stated to publish (I still want to work with them)
Android wallet translations are nearing completion
Current plans
I would like to work toward later phases of adoption, and bring more action then only presenting ideas.
Cryptocurency knowledge about Dash is getting quite good on local level. I believe
that with growing number of local materials about various parts of Dash
network it is getting into phase that should push forward adoption.
We have evolution slowly coming, why not to start onboarding merchants? We
are going to have a solution that is extremely cheap and scalable,
secure and open to everyone. Merchants are protected to the greatest
extent ever. I did asked some merchants about bitcoin and I did use
bitcoin tens of times mainly in PP.
Merchants from various places are having low amount of payments done on monthly basis, usualy in 1-5/month.
With Dash, we have greater possibilities of communication with those
stakeholders. We need to grow tens of merchants in this phase with
information that Dash is going to alow everyone to use digital money
without problems asociated with bitcoin tough technical circle jerk. If
we tell them they could adopt something with these capabilites, I
believe we will have strong edge over bitcoin. Other part is
InstantSend, which is second biggest thing to communicate about to them.

Other edge we have over bitcoin is the chance to incentivize synergistic coordination of these.
I would like to grow number of Dash accepting ATMs and other. Other
possible opportunity is with vending machines, the oppurtunity is
leveraged by current(soon coming) changes of laws.
I see high sense in these activities as they could really grow Dash
liquidity in the market. And again we could make adoption of Dash in
real world business way better than Bitcoin thanks to the InstantSend and good coordination of activities. Bitcoin is mostly failing in real
world businesses as my past experience proved on many examples.

Budget
145 DASH (140 + 5 Dash reimburesement for proposal)

Will be used for:

• 20% - translations and upgrading website toward merchants  needs (translations are described above and below, upgrading meens targeting
  website for merchants so they could find relevant information)
• 10% - meetup in Bratislava at then end of October (second presentation about Dash but in the other country Slovakia  - the capital
  city, to pay for expenses with travel and hotel)
• 30% - PR, Marketing & Business developement (focus on PR & Marketing relations that will make this project better known as well as
  establishing new partnerships for dash and pushing this into real value
  for dash stakeholders)
• 40% growth of merchant adoption (this will be achieved e.g. by personal contact, cooperation with partners for example integrating dash
  into smartphone and web application with information about merchants
  and some incentivization of the process and other relevant means)

Goals:

• Completing all translations of Dash Core client and android (via HashEngineering)
• Continuing work on Dash Detailed translations
  
• Growing community more with active users for the first time
• Reach 30 merchants that will keep supporting Dash in the upcoming year toward Dash Evolution
• Transform established partnerships into real stuff for Dash stakeholders
• Give a presentation about Dash in Bratislava
• Keep merchants updated and establish some long term means of comunication in order to keep them satisfied.

Why?
Czech Republic is one of the cryptocurrency centers, we have great amount of
technical IT people in our society and many Bitcoin startups. For
example first hardware wallet (Trezor).
We have a space where Bitcoin meetups are taking place every week
(Paralelní Polis) that is probably the only place in the world accepting
only Bitcoin for payments (even for yoga classes) According to some
statistics we are Sixth country in merchant adoption of Bitcoin.
Slovakia is another part of the proposal, but Czech republic has greater
potential. Both languages are very much the same so these efforts make
Dash available in native language of 16M+ ppl.

Notes:
Surely I did not presented every single information. The amount of it is
insane. So if you got question, I will give you concrete information.
Please check my previous posts as I said many things about my activities
already before. For example there is facebook
