[SOLUTION] Please describe your proposed solution

As we know, we have reached the final era - the Voltaire era. Governance plays a crucial role in this last step, which is also the phase of onboarding new users into the ecosystem. The underlying infrastructure has been meticulously built over many years and eras. Through many crypto winters, witnessing many collapses, Cardano has almost stood firm, steadily moving forward.

According to statistics from a reputable website in Vietnam, Vnetwork, in 2023, the Internet in Vietnam is experiencing strong growth with 77 million users, accounting for nearly 80% of the population. Specifically, according to detailed statistics on internet usage by age group:

1.   12.0% are aged 5 to 12.

2.   7.1% are aged 13 to 17.

3.   The fact that 19% of internet users are aged 5 to 17 is a significant number.

•  Cardano is likened by Charles Hoskinson to an island in the middle of the ocean, separate from all the FUD in the market.
• Cardano is an ecosystem with the most decentralized Token Economic model. This is reflected through the Edinburgh Index. There is absolutely no Venture Capital. Why do I bring up this point in the first place regarding the proposal for Cardano For Kids? Because, in this era, we need to focus on Marketing, where high-quality media products will be highly appreciated.
•  Entertainment activities that can convey good information. These are the products that need to be focused on and invested in knowledge, effort. Especially products from passionate individuals who contribute to the ecosystem.
• We are the ones who have all the necessary elements, attached to the ecosystem, with a strong belief in Charles Hoskinson's vision. We have had success in Catalyst, recognized by the community.
• In addition to being a part of the Cardano ecosystem, we also have a higher mission than all, that is the role of a MOTHER. I want to create a great product like Cardano For Kids so that my children, the next generation, can easily access it and will be inspired to explore the new world.

I. Inspiration, Strong Motivation - Embedded in the image you are currently seeing

During the translation process of the Cardano Summit 2023 video series https://s.net.vn/EFoL, I noticed that education was mentioned multiple times and prioritized. If we liken the future of a nation 100 years from now to a tree, with branches, leaves, flowers, and fruits, then education is the root. Why is Cardano For Kids a great idea?

1.   Creating opportunities for the future: Blockchain is a major wave that will change the course of human history, likened to the emergence of the Internet many years ago. However, its scale and impact are much greater, perhaps akin to a tsunami. By introducing blockchain education to children at a young age, we are preparing the future generation for a world where blockchain can become an integral part of work and life.

2.   Sparking creativity and exploring potential in young minds: Blockchain education is not just about accessing technology but also encouraging children to develop creative thinking and ignite their innate curiosity.

3.   Promoting logical thinking and problem-solving skills: Logical thinking is the root of all problem-solving. When children understand logic, the nature of things, how science and technology work, they can easily approach complex issues, making everything simpler and more manageable.

4.   Privacy, security need to be educated from a young age. The financial system and the "herding" mindset have deeply infiltrated the thinking of previous generations. This is evidenced by people feeling very comfortable performing KYC actions - providing sensitive personal information to platforms. Because they are not aware, there is a wonderful world beyond called blockchain with security technology and placing people's privacy at the highest level of respect. To achieve this mindset, the younger generation needs to be Informed - Understand - Deeply Understand - and ultimately apply blockchain technology in real life.

II. Cardano For Kids' straightforward solution - the pinnacle of complexity is simplifying the issue, making it accessible to the masses like breathing.

By making complex concepts simple and interesting, we can encourage children to think about exploring and innovating in applying blockchain to their daily lives.

III. The Potential Target Audience We Aim for

The name speaks for itself - Cardano For Kid. In previous fundraising rounds, students were the main target audience. The reason I target kids is because:

1.   Children aged 6 to 11 have superior information absorption, processing, and logical thinking development compared to other age groups. This age group is often referred to as the "golden window" according to research by the Institute of Child Development in the United States.

2.   The Journal of Neuroscience has shown that the brains of elementary school children are highly adaptable and flexible, a finding that has been published and recognized.

IV. The Uniqueness of the Cardano For Kid Project, and Why This Is Important for Cardano Specifically and the Future of Humanity in General:

The current context of technology education in Vietnam's education system. Below are some examples of how major technology corporations like FPT are focusing on blockchain and programming education, emphasizing the importance of blockchain education for children:

Afterschool FPT's Warrior Technology course

Funix programming course for kids:

● Example of Smart Contact course

● Example of Basic Blockchain course

Techkids Vietnam

Kidemy - Programming for children

TomoCode - Programming for children

There is a pressing issue not only in Vietnam but worldwide. It is undeniable that as technology advances, the number of autistic children increases. Prohibiting children from watching TV, YouTube, or TikTok is not feasible, so let them watch useful videos that stimulate exploration and the desire to learn. With civilized content, Cardano For Kids will foster creativity, enhance technological knowledge.

THIS IS THE DEMO PRODUCT THAT WE HAVE PUT A LOT OF EFFORT INTO COMPLETING. PLEASE TAKE A LOOK AT IT. THANK YOU FOR SUPPORTING THE PROJECT.

Very important to note that with sponsorship, we will deploy a marketing promotion program.

[IMPACT] Please define the positive impact your project will have on the wider Cardano community

Assessing the sustainable and long-term value of the Cardano For Kid project is crucial, as it not only generates immediate impact but also leaves a lasting imprint on the future of the community and society. Below are some points of analysis regarding the sustainability and longevity of this project:

1.   Building a solid knowledge foundation: By educating children about blockchain and Cardano from a young age, the project is constructing a sturdy knowledge base for the younger generation. This knowledge serves not only as a foundation for understanding blockchain technology but also as a motivation for children to continue exploring and developing in the future.

2.   Creating a developer and user community: The project not only shapes a generation knowledgeable about blockchain technology but also builds a community of Cardano developers and users. These individuals can become leading forces in the future development and expansion of the Cardano ecosystem.

3.   Promoting innovation and creativity: By encouraging children to engage in programming and creativity on the Cardano platform, the project creates an environment that fosters innovation and creativity. New ideas and unique applications from the younger generation can bring long-term value to the community and the digital economy.

4.   Enhancing awareness and acceptance within the community: The Cardano For Kid project not only educates children but also enhances awareness and acceptance of blockchain technology within the community. This creates a solid foundation for the future development and expansion of Cardano applications.

In summary, the Cardano for Kid project, with its 2D ANIMATION videos released weekly, promises to be embraced primarily within our existing Cardano community.

·        10 videos/3 months, averaging 3 videos per month.

·        Carefully curated and appealing scripts suitable for the target age group.

·        All content rigorously reviewed by blockchain industry experts.

·        The project will be implemented over 3 months, with each video aiming for a specific milestone in terms of views as outlined below.

·        The Cardano For Kids project is not just a means of educating children about blockchain but also a potential contributor to the development, promotion, and increased value of the Cardano community in the future.

Overall, the Cardano For Kid project not only generates immediate impact but also contributes to the long-term development and expansion of the Cardano ecosystem, building a knowledgeable, creative, and innovative community. This increases the sustainability and longevity of the project, ensuring that the value of Cardano is preserved and developed in the future.

Very important to note that with sponsorship, we will deploy a marketing promotion program. Currently, the demo version has no views.

After numerous discussions and consultations with experienced experts, we deemed the budget request reasonable for a product that promises significant present and future value. The ADA payment is entirely justified.

Currently, there is no comparable product, and we are pioneering this work because the blockchain industry is still nascent, requiring extensive support from teams and experts. Therefore, evaluating costs based on the aforementioned websites is entirely appropriate.

Resource Optimization: The reference materials we utilize are from freely available translation sources, and this cost is not factored into the calculation.

We consistently prioritize transparency, fairness, and commit to delivering the best possible product within this budget, aligned with our resources and capabilities. All information is updated transparently, ensuring the clearest possible tracking and monitoring.

[VALUE FOR MONEY] How does the cost of the project represent value for money for the Cardano ecosystem?

Although the Cardanoforkid demo product has showcased all the effort and capabilities, the value we bring to the ecosystem, I still want to present here some of the most objective arguments:

1.   We invest significant mental effort into each step, carefully selecting appropriate content, refining language, and tailoring it to the target audience. Subsequently, all content and concepts are reviewed by blockchain experts.

2.   The visual aspect is curated by a diverse team of professionals, ensuring optimal selection before being handed over to the video creator responsible for refining the choices.

3.   The entire voice component undergoes multiple tests to align with the blockchain context, attracting young audiences while ensuring alignment with the established content trajectory.

4.   Our cost estimates are based on thorough research of both domestic and international markets to provide the most reasonable and fitting expenses possible.

5.   The most crucial and pivotal point is our confidence in our product. With two perfect pieces— one specializing in blockchain and the other in film production, content creation, and video editing, with 4 years of experience in YouTube and TikTok in the Crypto field—our product has received substantial community support. Please refer to the provided YouTube channels in the capacity description section to witness the strong backing within the community.
